Rishabh Pant, T20 World Cup Squad:
As cricket enthusiasts revel in the thrills of the Indian Premier League (IPL) of 2024, buzz is building around the T20 World Cup 2024. The Indian cricket team is poised for a soon-to-be-announced lineup, potentially featuring the star wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant.
Please note that on the night of December 30, 2022, Rishabh Pant was involved in a car accident. After a period of recovery away from cricket, Pant has now made an impressive comeback in the IPL, scoring runs in grand style.
Sharp Focus on Pant and Other Players
A source revealed to Aaj Tak that Rishabh Pant might be selected for the T20 World Cup squad. Reports suggest that BCCI selectors are closely monitoring several players, including Pant.
Pant's outstanding wicketkeeping and batting in the IPL have turned heads. The Delhi Capitals' captain has hit back-to-back half-centuries, signaling his return to form.
Selection Meeting Scheduled for Month-End
Pant is showing form and fitness, an encouraging sign for both the selectors and fans. With the T20 World Cup in mind, selectors are closely watching several players, including Pant. This year's T20 World Cup, set to take place in June, will be hosted by the USA and West Indies.
Indian team captaincy for the T20 World Cup will continue under Rohit Sharma. The team's announcement is expected by the end of this month, with the selection meeting likely scheduled for April 30th or May 1st, followed by the official team revelation.
