"How many more days in this," Rishabh Pant wrote on Instagram Stories while sharing an image.
When Is Rishabh Pant Expected To Return In Action For Team India?
The injury setback has benched Rishabh Pant from competitive action for Team India. As the wicketkeeper-batter recovers from the injury, he missed out on a chance to be a part of the upcoming Asia Cup tournament.
Sanju Samson and Jitesh Sharma have been named as the wicketkeeper-batters for the upcoming ACC tournament.
The fracture, which has seemingly affected the metatarsal bone, has put Pant on a six-week recovery plan.
Team India returns to red-ball action at home against the West Indies and then locks horns against Australia in an away white-ball series.
But Rishabh Pant remains doubtful for both bilateral series as he is still recovering from the fracture.
