However, after about 14 months after this incident, Pant had returned to competitive cricket, but now Pant’s problem has come to the fore once again. Also, it is not clear whether he will be able to recover before the second Test to be held in Pune or not. But captain Rohit Sharma made it clear that the team management is going to be extra careful regarding Pant from now on. Also, captain Rohit told that Pant’s injury was not very big, but the team management decided to keep him on the bench and not take the risk, because he is a very important player in the Test team. Rohit Sharma gave a big statement regarding Rishabh Pant Let us tell you that after the end of the first Test match between the two teams in Bengaluru, Rohit Sharma said during the post match – Look, about his (Rishabh Pant) injury, I think he has undergone a major operation on his leg. So we all know what he has gone through. So, just have to be a little careful about where he is and what he is to us. Even when he was batting, he was not able to run comfortably. He was just trying to hit the ball into the stands. But still we need to be more careful with a person like him. Rohit further said- He (Pant) has undergone many minor surgeries, a major surgery has also been done on his knee. To be honest, he has gone through a lot of trauma in the last one and a half years. So this time is just about being more careful. So, when you are keeping, you have to bend your knee with every ball by lowering it. After this we thought the right thing for him to stay inside and then be 100% ready for the next match.
