The ace keeper-batter knows that it will take time to get back to his old self and he wants to take one day at a time.
It is not yet clear whether Pant will start his keeping duties immediately. In case he doesn't, DC will fall back on either West Indian Shai Hope or South African Tristan Stubbs.
Pant recalled the days when used to walk with crutches and added that he can't describe the feeling when he first held a bat after his accident.
The left-hander has been a part of DC's pre-season preparatory camp in Visakhapatnam ahead of their first IPL 2024 match against Punjab Kings in Chandigarh on Saturday.
Pant’s return will certainly bolster the fortunes of DC.
His treating doctor, renowned orthopedic surgeon Dinshaw Pardiwala has credited the NCA staff and the cricketer's extreme motivation for his comeback.
However, Gujarat Titans senior pacer Mohammed Shami, who is out of action since the World Cup final last year, and Prasidh Krishna, who appears for Rajasthan Royals, have been ruled out of IPL 2024.
The left-hander took to social media to offer fans a glimpse into his rigorous gym session as he prepares to grace the cricket field for the first time since December, 2022.
Rishabh Pant has not played since December 2022 when he was involed in a life-threatening car accident.
Pant, still recovering from a life-threatening car crash in 2022, acknowledged that Dhoni is the only person with whom he is comfortable sharing just about everything in his life.
