Jay Shah, the secretary of the BCCI, had already made hints that Pant would be able to rejoin the Indian team provided he performed well at the bat and kept wickets throughout the current IPL season. The good thing is that Rishabh Pant is performing well with both his bat and gloves, no one believed that a player who has returned from such a horrific accident could perform at this level.

Pant has already scored 2 fifties this season, and that too at a respectable strike rate, although Delhi Capitals are at the bottom of the points table after winning just once in five games. He has scored 153 runs in five innings overall, with a strike percentage of 154.45.

With Pant's return to India, the Men in Blue may overlook Jitesh Sharma in the playing XI for the T20 World Cup. Jitesh was the frontrunner to wear the large gloves behind the stumps, but with Pant's return, he is expected to be in the team but not a starter.
