Pant likely to return England Test series in 2024

The fact that Rishabh Pant might return to the Indian Test team for the home series against England allows the nation's supporters to exhale. India will host the 5-Test match series in January 2024. This is according to the latest reports. Prior to his near-fatal vehicle accident, Pant last competed in a Test series for India against Bangladesh. For the India wicketkeeper-batter, it was a difficult period.

According to a source on Sports Today, Pant is expected to appear in that series. He will play in the Indian Premier League in 2024, according to a later claim. The left-hander has scored 2271 runs in Test Cricket at an average of 43.67 and a strike rate of 73.63. He has 11 50s and five centuries. The 25-year-old has recorded centuries in both Australia and England. There were some rumours that Pant would make the ODI World Cup roster, but it was later determined that this was not likely.
