Fans React To The Reports Of Rishabh Pant's Inclusion In India's Squad For T20 World Cup

Rishabh Pant is said to be joining India’s team for the upcoming T20 World Cup. The wicketkeeper-batsman is back in action in the ongoing Indian Premier League 2024 (IPL 2024) after being away from the game for over a year.

Rishabh Pant, the Delhi Capitals player, hadn’t played cricket since December 2022 due to injuries from a car accident. He made his comeback in IPL 2024 and has amazed everyone with his fitness. Although some thought he would only bat, Pant has also been keeping wickets since the first game.

Rishabh Pant is set to be included in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2024

Reports suggest that Rishabh Pant is likely to be included in the Indian team for the upcoming T20 World Cup. His impressive performances in the IPL have put him ahead of other contenders.

According to Cricbuzz, the team management believes he is prepared for international cricket. Barring a significant drop in form, Pant is expected to secure a spot in the World Cup squad.

In his return to cricket, Rishabh Pant made scores of 18 and 28 in his first two games against Punjab Kings and Rajasthan Royals, respectively. He then played a match-winning half-century against Chennai Super Kings. Although he scored a quick fifty against Kolkata Knight Riders in the next game, his team ended up losing. However, he had a low score of just 1 in the last game against Mumbai Indians.

Sourav Ganguly, part of the Delhi Capitals’ backroom staff, mentioned that he would prefer to wait for a few more IPL games before expressing his opinion on the player’s international selection. Ganguly said:

“Let a few more matches go. He is doing very well, as you all must have seen, keeping batting. So he’s held up well and his form has been fantastic, especially the way he has batted in the last two games. So let another week go and I’ll be able to answer that question, provided the selectors want to pick him. So that’s most important. Yeah, yeah, he’s fully fit.”

The other front-runners for the position of keeper-batter in the T20 World Cup squad of India are Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan, and KL Rahul

Meanwhile, as the reports of Rishabh Pant getting selected for the T20 World Cup 2024 went viral on the internet, fans on social media came up with mixed reactions. While many hailed the Indian keeper-batter for his journey and struggles, on the other hand, many expressed their concerns regarding his T20 stats and form.
