In an impressive display of determination, Rishabh Pant is leaving no stone unturned in his quest for full fitness, as seen in a recent video shared on social media. Pant, who is currently undergoing recovery at the National Cricket Academy (NCA), is wholeheartedly engaged in his endeavors after a challenging car accident last year. Pant took to Instagram to share a video which displayed his determination as he successfully climbed a flight of stairs without the need of a stick for any support.
Furthermore, Pant posted a story on Instagram, revealing his stretching routine at the NCA in Bengaluru, where he used a stick for assistance.
Along with the video, Pant included a heart-warming caption in which he acknowledged the hurdles he faced even in simple tasks like climbing stairs while praising his own recovery. With a touch of self-appreciation, Pant’s caption read, “Not bad yaar Rishabh. Simple things can be tough sometimes.”
After the motivational recovery video shared by Pant, his IPL team, Delhi Capitals wasted no time in extending support and motivation to their skipper. Pant’s teammate in both the Indian team and Delhi Capitals, Axar Patel left a comment on the post that read, “Keep going, Rishabh,” along with two emojis to express his support.
India’s women cricketer Harleen Deol also joined in celebrating Pant’s impressive progress. In a spirited comment, she congratulated him saying, “Well done boy! Get your bhangra performance ready, @rishabhpant.”
Pant’s absence was greatly felt during the WTC final, where India lost to Australia. Pant was a key player in the playing XI during India’s previous appearance in the inaugural WTC final against New Zealand two years ago.
While Pant’s recovery is going well, it would be nothing short of a minor miracle if he manages to make a comeback on the cricket field this year. India will once again feel his absence in the upcoming Cricket World Cup.
