IND Vs BAN, T20 World Cup 2024 Warm-Up: Rishabh Pant Marks India Return After 16 Months With 32-Ball 53

New York: Rishabh Pant announced his return to India colours with a blazing fifty against Bangladesh in a warm-up tie in the T20 World Cup 2024 on Saturday at the Nassau County Cricket International Stadium. Donning the national jersey after 16 long months and a 14-month injury break following a fatal car accident on the early hours of December 30, 2022, Pant smashed four fours and the same number of sixes in his 32-ball 53 before being retired out.

Coming in at No.3 after the dismissal of Sanju Samson, Pant took a little bit of time to settle down before opening his arms for a flurry of fours and sixes. He started with a boundary off Mahedi Hasan before unleashing his range of shots with three sixes in an over against Shakib Al Hasan.
