Rishabh Pant made a strong comeback to international cricket

Rishabh Pant, marking a strong return to international cricket, recently shared a moment of triumph on social media by displaying his T20 World Cup winner's medal. His teammate Axar Patel humorously responded to Pant's post, reminding him that he too had received the same medal for their victorious campaign. Both players played crucial roles in India's T20 World Cup triumph, with Pant impressing not only with his batting but also with his wicket-keeping skills, earning two Best Fielder medals during the tournament.

On July 3, Pant posted a picture with his medal, captioning it, "This medal hits you differently." Axar Patel playfully commented, "Bhai same mere pass bhi hai (Brother, even I have the same one with me)," highlighting their shared achievement and camaraderie.

The Indian team, including Pant and Axar, faced delays returning from Barbados due to Hurricane Beryl, which caused the closure of the island's airport. Initially scheduled to arrive on Wednesday evening, their return was postponed to Thursday morning. The team is expected to land in Delhi around 6 am, where they will meet with the Prime Minister.

In a thoughtful gesture, BCCI Secretary Jay Shah ensured the safe return of Indian media personnel by arranging for them to travel on the chartered plane organised by the BCCI, amid the logistical challenges posed by the hurricane.
