We would have batted first. The wicket looks a little on the slower side. Really emotional time for me. Just want to enjoy the moment. Not thinking much. I think not worried about last season. Really exciting times. We have been preparing well. Four overseas batters for us. Hope, Marsh, Warner, Stubbs.

PBKS vs DC Live Score: Will Pant keep wickets for DC?

Pant is a massive shot in the arm for the team whose best-ever performance in the IPL till date is a runners-up finish in 2020. It is not yet clear whether Pant will start his keeping duties immediately. In case case he doesn’t, DC will fall back on either West Indian Shai Hope or South Africa’s Tristan Stubbs.

PBKS vs DC Live Score: Pant’s comeback in focus

Rishabh Pant’s resilient return to the cricket field in multiple roles will be the focus when Delhi Capitals take on Punjab Kings. Pant’s miraculous escape from a life-threatening car crash in December 2022 has now become a tale of perseverance after the big-hitting wicketkeeper-batter made a faster than expected recovery to be back in action. He has been cleared to play as a keeper-batter and has the additional responsibility of captaining the side, taking back the position from David Warner, who led DC to a ninth-place finish in the 10-team tournament last year.
