Team India’s and Delhi Capitals skipper and wicketkeeper batsman, Rishabh Pant, is all set to achieve a rare milestone for the Delhi Capitals. The southpaw is set to feature in his 100th match for the Delhi Capitals.
Apart from Rishabh Pant, no other batter has played 100 matches for the franchise..
Apart from Rishabh Pant, Amit Mishra is the only player to play most games for the Delhi Capitals (99 matches).
In all aspects, Rishabh Pant will try to make his 100th match for his franchise a memorable one. The Delhi Capitals will try to get off the mark in the points table. They have lost their first game against the Punjab Kings by six wickets.
While Delhi capitals will be boosted by the return of Ishant Sharma, who was out of action due to an ankle injury,.
Talking about Ishant Sharma, Pant said, “I think Ishant’s injury was clearly evident in the field; we were already one bowler short because of our batting; Abishek Porel did well to give us those extra runs, but we were always one bowler short. The boys did well to drag us back into the match at various stages.
On his comeback, I was pretty nervous; there was a bit of tension, but I started to enjoy myself. No excuses; having a bowler short was never good, but credit goes to PKBS for the way they played. He’s pretty new (on Porel), 3rd the 4th game (for him), the way he batted was very special, looking forward to more from him as the season moves forward”.
