Rishabh also shared a picture of himself playing Holi, which showed his face covered in colour as the cricketer holds a plate.

While Pant has missed the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the cricketer will not play the upcoming IPL season but Delhi Capitals’ head coach Ricky Ponting wants him to be around even if he just sits in the dugout. Meanwhile, David Warner is likely to lead DC this season.
On the other hand, India will miss his services in the World Test Championship finals. KS Bharat has replaced Pant in the team for time being. He was also likely to be part of India’s World Cup squad, though KL Rahul has been preferred over him in the ODIs.
