Every time there is an update about Rishabh Pant, fans get curious to know about the wicketkeeper’s comeback to cricket. Ever since the 25-year-old suffered a horrific car accident, Pant has been out of action. While the dynamic batter was dearly missed at the World Test Championship (WTC) Final, fans are hoping Pant comes back in time for the ODI World Cup.

Pant’s speed of recovery has also sent encouraging signals but these are not strong enough to believe that the wicketkeeper batter might be fit before the 2023 ODI World Cup. Although Pant is making steady progress, the 25-year-old Delhi cricketer is far from match-fit. According to reports, it would take more than six months for Pant to be fit enough to return to the ground. Also, even then, Pant will only be able to play as a batter.
