India wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant who was recently featured in the T20 World Cup 2024 was seen jokingly pushing Khaleel Ahmed in the swimming pool. Pant was seen keeping wickets and Khaleel was the part of travelling reserves for the India squad in the marquee event hosted by USA and West Indies in June 2024. Both cricketers represent Delhi Capitals (DC) in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Rishabh Pant and Khaleel Ahmed' video
An old video of Khaleel and Pant is going viral on social media where the wicketkeeper batter can be seen pushing Ahmed into the swimming pool.
Pant is currently in the form of his life since his comeback after recovering from the injuries that he got in the near fatal accident while driving back home from New Delhi. He scored 171 runs in nine outings of the T20 World Cup. The 26-year-old wicketkeeper batter also picked some game-changing catches.
Rishabh Pant's performance in IPL 2024
Pant was the highest run-getter of Delhi Capitals (DC) in the recently concluded season of IPL. He scored 446 runs in 13 outings. However, the franchise failed to qualify for the playoffs of the cash-rich league. DC have recently removed Ricky Ponting from the head coach position but Rishabh Pant will most likely be retained by the franchise in the upcoming mega auction. On the other hand, Khaleel Ahmed picked 17 wickets in his 14 IPL outings of 2024 conceding 479 runs with an economy of 9.58.
Pant will be most likely to be seen in action in the upcoming T20I and ODI series against Sri Lanka which is scheduled to start from July 27.
