In a excellent news for Rishabh Pant followers, the Indian wicketkeeper-batter is recovering properly and it’s anticipated that Pant could be discharged from Mumbai’s Kokilaben hospital this week.

Pant, 25, was admitted to hospital after he met with an horrific accident on December 30. Pant had undergone a surgical procedure on torn ligament on the correct knee and based on InsideSport, Pant is making good restoration.

“He is doing pretty great. It’s good news from the medical team. The first surgery was successful and that is what everyone wanted to hear. He will be discharged this week,” a senior BCCI official was quoted as saying by InsideSport.

The report added that Pant might want to endure second surgical procedure in March to repair the torn ACL in his proper knee. It is to be famous that every one three ligaments on Pant’s proper knee have been torn within the accident.

 “He will need another surgery in about a month. Doctors will decide when it is right to have the 2nd surgery. BCCI Medical team is in constant touch with Dr Pardiwala and the hospital. We hope to see him back on the field soon,” the official added.

It is probably going that Pant would take round six months earlier than getting match to return to the sector. Pant is very unlikely to play within the ODI World Cup in October.

“We are not even thinking of his comeback now. Focus is on his recovery. It’s still too early to say when he will return. As per his latest medical reports, it will take 8-9 months. But we are keeping our fingers crossed and hoping that he will be fit in time for the World Cup. But it looks highly unlikely,” a senior BCCI official advised InsideSport.
