Seeing his name registered in the list of players, people were left wondering, because Anderson retired from Test cricket just a few months ago. After this, Anderson also worked as a fast bowling consultant for the England Test team in the home summer and the series against Pakistan. I have a lot more to offer as a player – James Anderson Meanwhile, in the BBC Radio 4 Today podcast, Anderson said, there is still something inside me, which makes me feel that I can still play.

Rishabh Pant (Image Credit- Twitter X) Before the Indian Premier League 2025 mega auction, all the franchises have to submit the list of their retained players, the last date of which is October 31. According to the new guidelines issued by BCCI, a franchise can retain a maximum of 6 players including uncapped players.

He also took command of the team in IPL 2024. Pant made a spectacular comeback last season after recovering from a car accident. Now amid the news of Pant joining the auction, former cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that he should go to RCB as captain. He said that most franchises can spend big money for a flamboyant cricketer. If his name comes in the auction, a lot of money will be spent: Aakash Chopra Chopra said on his YouTube channel, it is heard that Rishabh Pant may be available in the auction. But many people say that his figures in T20 are not that good, he has had only one successful season in IPL and apart from that he has not scored much runs either. I can give you in writing that if his name comes in the auction, a huge amount will be spent. He further said that, RCB needs a keeper, a batsman and maybe a captain. Punjab will be in need because they will have no one. Delhi will need it, RTM card will be available. KKR also needs him. What about CSK, they need. If Ishan Kishan is left out, Mumbai will also need him. Let us tell you that the last season was good for Rishabh Pant, who returned after a two-year long injury. He scored 446 runs in 13 innings at a strike rate of 155.40. After this strong performance, he directly joined the Indian team and played in the T20 World Cup 2024.
