Rishabh Pant Anticipates IPL 2024 Auction Debut After Recovery
Indian cricket sensation Rishabh Pant is gearing up for a significant milestone in his career as he prepares to participate in the auction for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. The southpaw missed the previous edition due to multiple injuries sustained in a car accident on the Delhi-Dehradun highway.
Expressing a mix of excitement and nervousness, Pant acknowledges that venturing into the auction arena for the first time is a thrilling yet challenging experience. He emphasizes the opportunity for personal growth and learning, expressing eagerness to be part of something new and exciting.
As the anticipation builds, Pant reflects on the isolation he endured during his recovery and looks forward to being around people again. The auction, he believes, will be a welcome change from the rehab-focused routine, providing a chance to reconnect with the cricketing community.
Recalling his initial IPL journey, Pant fondly remembers being picked by the Delhi Capitals (then Daredevils) in 2017 after an impressive performance in the U19 World Cup in Bangladesh. The young cricketer expresses gratitude for the opportunity and reminisces about his first auction experience, where he went for Rs 1.9 crore.
With 98 IPL matches under his belt, Pant boasts an impressive record of 2838 runs at an average of 34.61 and a striking 147.97. Having scored one century and 15 half-centuries, he is eager to make a mark in the upcoming auction and continue his IPL legacy. Pant's journey has been nothing short of remarkable, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return to the IPL stage.
