Rishabh Pant Health Update, Ind vs Eng 4th Test Manchester 2025: Star wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant sustained an injury to his right foot on Day 1 of the ongoing Manchester Test, ruling him out of wicket-keeping duties for the remainder of the match.
However, the cricketer is back on the field, much to the delight of his fans and family.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) earlier today stated, “Dhruv Jurel will take over the gloves behind the stumps for the rest of the game. Jurel, who made his Test debut earlier this year, is expected to fill the role with confidence and agility as the match progresses.”
“Despite the setback, Pant returned to the field on Day 2 and has joined his teammates, signaling that he is available to bat if required, depending on the match situation and team strategy,” the statement added.
Earlier, Pant’s absence behind the stumps was seen as a blow to India’s fielding dynamics. Known for his explosive strokeplay and ability to change the course of a game, Pant’s presence on the field strengthens India's position as they take on England in a ‘do-or-die’ match for the series.
