The Friday morning yesterday didn’t come as completely an unexpected one for the Indian cricket fans. Everyone was left in extreme shock as star Indian wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant happened to fall prey to a major road accident following a massive crash of his luxury car into a road divider near the Narsan border on the Delh-Dehradun Highway.

A Haryana roadways bus driver Sushil Kumar did not make any delay in rescuing Rishabh Pant from a burning car. Subsequently, the southpaw was rushed to a nearby Saksham Hospital in Roorkee for the instant supervision and supervision of the doctors. Subsequently, he was referred to the Max Hospital of Dehradun. Veteran Bollywood actors Anupam Kher and Anil Kapoor also paid a visit to the hospital to see Rishabh Pant.
Meanwhile, an old video is making rounds on social media including Rishabh Pant with veteran Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan. The latter is seen advising the 25-year-old to drive slowly.
In the aftermath of the surfacing of this video on the platforms, fans also went on to recall that advice and regretted the ignorance of Dhawan’s advice by Rishabh Pant after hearing about the life-threatening accident. They took to Twitter to come up with multiple reactions and advised the Haridwar-born lad to follow the lessons from the elders.
Here’s how fans reacted:

The day people will understand that 'safe driving is a responsibility towards self and others and not merely a way to transport', the roads will be safe for everyone!

How valuable that advice was but this man did not take that and see the result.

All for sympathies for him, he is an amazing test player but had he killed someone today it would have been State vs Rishabh Pant not State funding treatment for Rishabh Pant.

Funny that Dhami is sponsoring treatment for someone who got international health insurance.

Notably, Rishabh Pant played a crucial role in India’s clean sweep win against Bangladesh in the recently concluded two-match Test series against Bangladesh. Apart from that, he was also expected to play in the two ODI series against Sri Lanka and New Zealand within the month of January only.
In further developments, the sports injury expert at AIIMS Rishikesh Dr. Qamar Azam has talked with TOI regarding the complete treatment and possibilities of Rishabh Pant’s comeback in international cricket.
“Rishabh Pant will at least take 3-6 months to recover from a ligament injury. It can be even more if it’s severe,” said Dr. Azam to TOI.
