Mumbai/IBNS: Indian wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant, who met a life-threatening road mishap in 2022, has now recovered fully to play the upcoming season of Indian Premier League (IPL).

Pant, a southpaw, underwent rehabilitation and recovery after his car met with an accident in December 2022.

The Indian cricket board (BCCI) posted on X, "After undergoing an extensive 14-month rehab and recovery process, following a life-threatening road mishap on December 30th, 2022, @RishabhPant17 has now been declared fit as a wicket-keeper batter for the upcoming #TATA @IPL 2024."

Pant had managed to come out of his car on time as his high-end car rammed into a road barrier and caught fire on the Delhi-Dehradun highway.

He sustained a ligament injury in his right knee and cuts above his forehead.

Due to his recovery process, Pant, who was a regular cricketer in Team India, missed a lot of cricket matches.

Pant, who plays for Delhi Capitals in IPL, returns to cricket just months ahead of the T20 World Cup, which will be played in June.
