Indian wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant shared an update on his foot injury. The left-handed batsman is in the recovery process after he sustained a foot fracture during the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy 2025.

Pant was hit by Chris Woakes’ delivery on his foot while batting in the fourth test in Manchester. Later, it was revealed he sustained a foot fracture and was ruled out of the fifth test at The Oval. With two centuries and three half-centuries, Pant showed a wonderful form in the series, scoring 479 runs in seven innings.

“So being positive is massive , motivating yourself works a lot . Keep trusting your self and keep working in the direction you wanna take your life because what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger eventually,” he added.
