I don’t have live access right now to fetch the latest updates directly, but I can share what’s publicly known up to recent times and how to verify current news.
- Rishabh Pant (RP17) has been in the news mainly for injuries and comeback plans after his car accident in late 2022. There have been periodic updates about his rehabilitation progress, including drills, nets work, and conditioning, with varying reports on return timelines [web sources; see examples of BCCI rehab updates and media coverage from 2023–2025].[1][4]
- In early 2026 there were reports about Pant being ruled out of India’s ODI series against New Zealand due to an oblique-side strain, with Dhruv Jurel named as his replacement. This is the most recent concrete competitive-action update in that period.[2]
- There has also been ongoing fan interest around RP17-branded gear or tributes (e.g., teammates using RP17 imagery on bats) and Pant’s own social posts highlighting his rehabilitation journey.[3][5][6]
If you want the absolute latest, I recommend checking:
- The official BCCI press releases or the India national cricket team social channels for any new rehab or selection news.
- Trusted cricket outlets like ESPNcricinfo, NDTV Sports, Times of India/ Times Now News for up-to-date injury updates and match selections.
- Recent IPL or domestic fixtures where Pant’s status might be mentioned in post-match reports or squad announcements.
Would you like me to pull the most current articles from those sources and summarize them with direct citations? If you can specify how recent you want the updates (today only, past 24 hours, or past week), I can tailor the search.
