The return of Rishabh Pant to the cricketing fold has infused a fresh wave of excitement, not just among fans but also within the Delhi Capitals camp. 

The announcement by the BCCI medical team declaring Pant fit for the upcoming Indian Premier League season has brought a collective sigh of relief and a burst of energy, especially for his teammate and close friend, Axar Patel.

Reflecting on Pant's absence last season, Axar Patel expressed his happiness on his return. His words echo the sentiment shared by many who have longed for the infectious energy and camaraderie that Pant brings to the team.

Here's what he said:

"I'm sure everyone would have said that it's great to have him back in the team, but personally, I missed him a lot, missed our banter both on and off the field last year.

But, now that he is back, all the banter and fun have started alongside serious conversations around the game. I'm just looking forward to having more fun with him this season," he remarked.

The Delhi Capitals, are gearing up for their first match against Punjab Kings in Chandigarh on 23 March. With Pant's return, the team hopes to recreate the magic of past seasons and aim for glory once again.
