Team India's star wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant met with a life-threatening car accident in December last year and will miss most of the cricketing action this year, which includes IPL 2023 and ODI World Cup 2023 in India.

Ever since his accident, the Southpaw has undergone multiple surgeries and is currently in a process of full recovery. He was travelling from Delhi to Uttarakhand when his car collided with a divider near Roorkee.

Rishabh Pant, one of team India's most dependable batters across formats, has provided a positive update on his recovery.

In an exclusive conversation with IANS, Pant revealed that he will be fit very soon and said he has gained a fresh perspective on how he views his life.

“I am much better now and making some good progress with my recovery. Hopefully, with the grace of God, and the support of the medical team, I will be fully fit very soon," Pant told IANS.

“It is hard for me to say if everything around me has become more positive or even negative. However, I’ve gained a fresh perspective on how I view my life now," he stated.

Pant continued, “Something I value today is enjoying my life to the fullest and this includes the smallest of things that we ignore in our daily routine. Everyone today is hustling and working extremely hard to achieve something special, but we’ve forgotten to enjoy the little things which give us joy every single day."

Rishabh said he is focused on getting back to his feet now.

“I think it’s difficult to say how much I miss cricket because my life literally revolves around it, but I am focusing on getting back to my feet now and I cannot wait to get back to doing what I love the most, to play cricket," he added.

The star batter explained how he is training for his comeback.

“I try to follow my daily routine as per schedule. I wake up in the morning and then I undergo my first physiotherapy session of the day with my physiotherapist. Post that, I take some rest and time to refresh myself for the second session. I start my second session soon after, and train according to how much pain I can endure, especially after a tough first session," the middle-order batter said.
