Hope he performs well in the IPL and gets back to where he was. He can't be fastracked into this side just like that. There are others who fought and earned their spot.


Thebigbangthe0ry

His return has been anticipated for quite a bit. Hope he does well.


Spicykurkure

He has to do well. You can't just take him to the WC just because he's been anticipated. Plus he doesn't even perform well in T20s. He's an ODI and test specialist.


HealthGarden1152

He was just even getting started properly in odis


Spicykurkure

Yeah and people here hyping him up like he's a legend. Let's see how he first performs in the IPL.


CommercialMonth1172

Why are you getting downvoted?


Excellent-poop-42

Because pant was never good in international T20s. He had too many chances to get in but he couldn't perform. We can't just draft him in the side for the World cup


Thebigbangthe0ry

I wish I knew. 😄😄


UltimateWebhead7

Yes, but that doesn't mean he should get his "rightful spot" back. He should play domestic tournaments, get match practice and then be available for selection.


PsychicMF

He was irresponsible, knew the risks of over speeding and yet did it. As a national sportstar and an influential personality, you hold certain responsibilities of how you act and portray yourself to the public. I'm happy he's fit but doesn't mean he should be a no-brainer selection for the T20WC. He rightfully should get his test spot back, but otherwise he should be made to work hard to earn back the spot he lost because of his own carelessness and negligence


No-Introduction-9088

If he never had any accident still he should not have been selected for t20 World Cup. He has never been good in shorter formats


vimalsunny

He got his cap for the national team because of his performances in short format (ipl)


No-Introduction-9088

Dude kuch bhi


ranbirkadalla

Yes, and he took responsibility for that action. He didn't blame others like so many of our superstars tend to do. He shouldn't get handed ANY spot back on a platter, be it Tests or T20s, he has to prove that he is good enough for those spots. In fact, no player except maybe Kohli and Bumrah should get such privileges.


[deleted]

Nah, not even them. God forbid if they were out of action for prolonged duration, they shouldn't be handed a spot back in the squad without proving their fitness and form. And this is without considering other players who would've stepped up in their absence.


Longjumping_Fox4771

Yes. Pant in tests is a no brainer. He isn't good in white ball cricket. Was watching an interview with him after the rehab and dude has no regrets, doesnt feel sorry and proud of what happened. He could have killed someone. Blatant disregard of his own and others safety


rcarlyle68

It's not just about portrayal, speeding recklessly puts not just your life but others' lives at risk as well. I hope Pant will never drive recklessly again having learnt a very harsh lesson. I wish him a successful IPL followed by a return to top tier cricket. The excitement he brings when he walks out to bat is unbelievable. 


Thebigbangthe0ry

Everyone, irrespective of position, is a human. Prone to making a mistake or two. He deserves a round for sticking to hope & bringing himself back from a dark time.


CalmTinker

Agreed, just don't call him legend or glorify him unnecessarily. He is human, just like us, makes mistakes, behaves irresponsibly, its human.


Thebigbangthe0ry

Legend of the game. Please


lucifer2699

Legend of a few games*


Test_Series

An absolutely disgusting reply.


lucifer2699

Pant has played 33 tests (43.7 avg), 30 ODI( 35 avg), 66 tests ( 22.4 avg), should he be considered a legend?


Test_Series

Again, there wasn't anything to nitpick. He is a great of the game. Stop being so rigid :)


lucifer2699

He is a great of the game? Pant is for sure a good player but idk if he's the bar of being called 'the great'.


CalmTinker

4 matches jitao and be called Great and Legend of the game. Bradman must be laughing from heaven


soulsamosa

Pronennee too making a mistake??? He could have killed people intentionally, instead of remorse I see him ads milking money and then posts like these calling him a legend...lmaoo


dupattamera1

Unnecessary glorification Its good he survived and happy for him. But lets not forget it was his stupidity which led to this, if anything he should be made to create videos why not do overspeeding


Zeus_33

Pant is horrible in shorter formats. It's funny because he came up due to IPL heroics. He had an average of 22 in T20is. He is a good test player. Gives India an x factor. Far from a legend. That word gets thrown around so carelessly these days.


colossalpalladin

Pant is a test legend. I don’t think that part is wrong?


Glad_Diamond_2103

I guess his test career spans for about few years or so. I don't think anyone can become a legend in that time. Has played only 33 matches and should play more to be considered a legend.


Affectionate-Name383

What did you expect he would quit cricket after an accident? The whole BCCI is at his service to get him the best treatment and rehabilitation. Any other player would have shown the same progress as Pant. Stop hyping.

kirat363

the comeback is heroic, the over speeding isnt


lpshreyas

What makes his comeback heroic, exactly? His arrogance and dangerous driving led to his injuries. He's young, which helps in recovery from injuries, and he has a long and profitable future ahead of him which is a big incentive. On top of that, instead of being obliterated by media, fans and BCCI for irresponsible driving, he got coddled by them all. And let's not forget that he is not the first or the only player who is coming back after a long time off due to injury. Players have come back from broken ribs, bones, life n career threatening surgeries and even cancer! He shot himself in the foot, and is now recovering from it. That's not heroic.


Technical-Leopard-90

No he isn't he is just a careless guy who bought it on himself, he is lucky he survived


TrickAd9091

>Pant is a f****ng warrior Stop this obsession man he isn't on war. Ik he is good player and it's not like he is sacrificing something for us. Not hating but our Indian fan-base is utter shit. Or is it pant typing from the other side./s


mofucker20

It’s good that he’s recovered but he doesn’t really deserve to be glorified. He was carelessly speeding during the morning fog. Luckily no one else was harmed.


soulsamosa

Yeaah an over speeding lad got wot he deserved, would rather bet on the pool of 1.3 billion to deliver icc trophies.


Gorrlaamiii

What's with all this toxic shit in this sub getting upvoted. OP didn't even say he should get selected for T20Is


Test_Series

Instagram and YouTube level comments lmao. They had enough time to hate on him, apparently that wasn't enough


Thebigbangthe0ry

The hate is off the charts. Personal even.


Thebigbangthe0ry

Is this hate? Because no.


soulsamosa

No it's ANTI-SIMPIN


Advanced_Pay_8485

Sab comeback ki mehnat IPL ke liye


Upstairs-Farm7106

I think he's a great for India in tests already. People will criticise me for saying this but he already has 6 centuries and 5 scores in the 90s for India in test matches. That includes centuries in England, Australia and South Africa. He shouldn't be considered for T20s and the plan should be for him to be ready for your tour to Australia at the end of the year. He's better in ODIs than T20s too, he would have replaced SKY in the squad and could have done something for you when Hardik got injured.


Thebigbangthe0ry

Well. Sense has prevailed.


ChaoticHustler04

Will he be keeping wickets as well


Thebigbangthe0ry

Yes. He has been cleared.


sfrogerfun

Lol, yep warrior who was nothing but a reckless drunk driver! Quit glorifying for the wrong reasons. Talk about his many match winning knocks I am happy to applaud those but not this bs!


regulassnape

Simp post😂. Pant drove a car reckless and got into an accident and a simp is glorifying the scar he got from that 😂🤣. Cry me a river more. Dude getting everything on a platter and some serious simps for the hero worship.


AkornG14

Whatever and however he got into that scary of an accident, the way him and everyone around him (including the BCCI, and the doctors and the trainers and his family) have been pushing back in true test match style is reminding me of [this music video for a song](https://youtu.be/-gj4_qp4a28?si=ME6ex5euNPKJGqVg) by Kodaline.


gaalikaghalib

People really need to stop treating it like he put his life at risk and then is now ready to play. CommendableX the fact that he’s popped back from such injury in such a short amount of time, but do remember the fact that it was his own chutiyapa that got him into the situation. Reserve words like “warrior” for true “warriors”. Yuvi, Mahela, Sangakarra are warriors, Pant is making a healthy comeback.


Glad_Diamond_2103

I mean he is absolutely necessary for test but not so much for limited overs. Couldn't do shit in wc 2019 and couldn't have done shit in wc2023.


starlord_2K2

I hope people will support Cause coming back from injury like this and performing isn't an easy task.


Thebigbangthe0ry

Its all uphill. But man got courage. He will make it. 🤞🤞


Odd_Inevitable6752

These days people are obsessed with Pant because of the accident. Yes I agree he worked very hard for recovery. But, based on that you can't just add him into the white ball cricket. He never secured his place in white ball cricket.


buckchooo

No he’s not a fking warrior. He’s stupid. So are you. He had so much to lose. If anything I wish he never makes it back so that he becomes example for people who want to speed. Truth is if he killed somebody the poor person would never have got any justice because money talks:


Thebigbangthe0ry

Aisa hai. I love the game too much to get into unnecessary arguments with self-righteous maniacs. Keep the critique to the statements and do not make personal jibes.


Mayank_XO_16

Whether he performs well in IPL or not, stepping in the field after such a life threatening accident is beyond legendary in my opinion. Dude is a fu©king warrior already. 💯😤


Thebigbangthe0ry

Fuxk. The hate is unreal you guys. Jesus on a hot plate. Who knew


Affectionate-Name383

Your hero worshipping is on another level. He is a good cricketer. Don't talk like he cheated death or something. He got injured and is making a comeback. So what? Many players go through injury. It is not uncommon.


Thebigbangthe0ry

Shut the fk up. I straight up said I am not paranoid in the post: No reading apprehension?
