Indian wicket‑keeper Rishabh Pant was involved in a serious car crash on the outskirts of Delhi. He later thanked two individuals who helped him and the injured passengers.
Earlier this week, Rishabh Pant was involved in a serious car accident near Delhi, when his vehicle collided with a delivery truck on a congested stretch of road.
Pant was trapped inside the vehicle for several minutes before a passer‑by and a paramedic rushed to the scene. The two men, who have been described as "heroes" by Pant, managed to extricate him and the other passengers before emergency services arrived.
After receiving treatment at a nearby hospital, Pant expressed his gratitude in a brief statement, thanking the two rescuers for their quick action and for saving lives.
The Delhi Police have confirmed that the incident caused no fatalities, but several passengers suffered minor injuries. Pant is expected to recover fully and return to cricket duties once cleared by medical staff.
