Indian wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant, who has largely struggled with his injury since the England tour, is all set to make his comeback to the field with the coming Ranji Trophy from the 25th of October. The BCCI's medical team would, however, be assessing his recovery, with 10th October set as his return date.
India is currently playing the home Test series against the West Indies, and wicket-keeper batter Pant missed out on the opportunity to feature in a home contest. He also missed out on the Australia white-ball tour and is expected to make a comeback to international cricket with the South Africa series. Dhruv Jurel has been roped in as his replacement across formats.
Rishabh Pant's return date finalised by the BCCIRishabh Pant suffered the injury long back in the England series, where he had amassed 479 runs in the 7 innings over the 4 matches he played. The batter averaged 68.42 in the series, but was ruled out after he fractured his right foot in an attempt to reverse sweep Chris Woakes.
