The cricketer will be treated by noted sports orthopedic surgeon Dinshaw Pardiwala.

Pant survived a horrific car accident when he was driving from Delhi to his hometown Rourkee but lost control on the NH-58 highway before hitting the divider.

Rishabh will now totally be under BCCI’s care from the treatment of his ligament tear to recovery & the eventual rehab.

Can’t remember the last time BCCI going out of its way, marking fresh protocols. That said, well done to all involved.

Get well soon, @RishabhPant17
