NEW DELHI: Rishabh Pant's dominating run in cricket, especially the longest format, faced an abrupt halt following the horrific car accident in 2022. It resulted in several injuries and kept the youngster away from cricket for more than a year.
The wicketkeeper-batter underwent a long rehab and spent most of his time at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru. Former India men's senior selection committee chairman MSK Prasad feels it allowed him a long period of introspection which made him more mature and responsible, both in life and his game.
