Rishabh Pant, the regular captain of the Delhi Capitals, said on Friday that he is ‘getting better with each passing day’ as he is rehabilitating for multiple injuries sustained in a horrific car accident. Pant caught up with his teammates on the sidelines of the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium training session ahead of their IPL match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).
In a video shared by Delhi Capitals (DC), Rishabh Pant said, “I am recovering very well and I’m getting better with each passing day. I came to visit the National Cricket Academy and the Delhi Capitals happened to be there. So I met the team.”

Pant was involved in a horrific car accident last December, and now he is missing competitive cricket for an extended period of time. He had surgery on his right knee and has only recently begun walking and rehabilitation. Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals have lost all four of their games in the cash-rich league, which began on March 31.
Despite scoring three half-centuries in four games, skipper David Warner, known for his slam-bang batting style, has been criticized for his slow batting. Despite the fact that the Australian has scored 209 runs at an average of 52.25, his painfully slow knocks have hurt the team, and the skipper has been one of the reasons behind DC’s poor performance this season.
