Star Indian wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant has been out of contention to play for quite some time now. The 25-year-old was in a car accident in December 2022, which saw him sustain major injuries and rule him out of playing for an entire year.

However, Pant has made great strides to get back on the pitch in recent months, and he was also seen walking without crutches. Furthermore, Pant has reportedly been treated with even more good news, as he would not have to undergo another surgery, which was originally the plan.

Times of India reported that the medical officials overseeing the 25-year-old are happy with the progress he has made thus far. He sustained some major injuries from the accident, and as the doctors who kept him under watch ruled out another surgery, it could mean the star wicketkeeper is on the road to making a full recovery.
