Rishabh Pants rumoured girlfriend Isha Negi names her favourite cricketer
Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant is all set to lead his Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise – Delhi Capitals for the first time in his career. The team management took this decision after Shreyas Iyer suffered a shoulder injury during the series against England and was ruled out from IPL 2021.
On his appointment, Pant in a statement had said, “Delhi is where I grew up, and where my IPL journey began six years ago. To lead this team one day is a dream I`ve always harboured. And today, as that dream comes true, I feel humbled. I am truly grateful, especially to our team owners, who considered me capable enough for this role. With an amazing coaching staff and a plethora of accomplished seniors around me, I can’t wait to give my absolute best for Delhi Capitals.”
