The ardent fans and followers of Indian wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant might have multiple times visited his official social media profiles to see if he has posted any updates about his health after he met with a near-fatal accident last month.
Pant was driving home from Delhi to Roorkee alone in his car when his luxury car hit the divider on the Delhi-Haridwar highway at around 5:30 AM. It then caught fire after going topsy-turvy on the road.
