Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant, who had been absent from the field due to a car accident in December 2022, has made his comeback to a match for the first time. Following the car accident, Pant had to undergo knee surgery. Pant's swift recovery has taken everyone by surprise. During a practice match, Pant hit a spectacular six that quickly gained traction on social media.

The video that went viral highlighted Pant's signature style. He executed the six with his characteristic old-school approach. The video showcases Pant skilfully dispatching the ball over the leg side for an impressive six. Despite still being in the process of rehabilitation, Pant is showing remarkable progress. Despite his appearance in the practice match, there are no expectations for Pant to make a return for the 2023 World Cup.
