Dubai, May 28: Rishabh Pant's recent success in Indian Premier League 2024 has made former Australia skipper and Delhi Capitals head coach Ricky Ponting hope that the wicketkeeper-batter will make a "huge impact" in next month's T20 World Cup. Pant made his comeback to competitive cricket after a gap of 15 months in the recently concluded IPL. Despite doubts over his fitness after recovering from multiple injuries sustained in a horrific car crash, Pant not only captained Delhi Capitals in the season but also donned the wicketkeeping gloves successfully.
