Rishabh Pant, the injured wicketkeeper-batter, attended the Delhi Capitals (DC) versus Gujarat Titans (GT) match in the IPL 2023 as a spectator at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday, Apr🎃il 4.
Although he has been ruled out of the tournament due to his injury, Pant showed ෴his support for his team from the sidelines. He was seen with a walking stick, held by his left hand, while his right knee was taped up.
Earlier in the day, the DDCA confirmed that Pant would be present during the match, which was DC’s first home game of the season. Despite not being able to play, Pant’s presence in the stadium boosted the morale of his teammates and fans.
Rishabh Pant is H.E.R.E ❤💙
