India’s explosive wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant said that he was lucky enough to survive a fatal car accident that he met with on New Year’s Eve a couple of years ago.
“First time in my life I had that feeling of letting it go. I felt my time in this world was over,” Pant said in the interview, which was conducted in Bengaluru on August 24, 2023, roughly eight months after the accident occurred when Pant was driving from Delhi to Roorkee to meet his family and crashed his car into the median divider on the road.
The Fight
The left-hander admitted that he thought that his time was over. According to Pant, it was the first instance in life he felt like letting things go.
In the words of Pant, “It was the first time I had such a feeling in life. At the time of the accident, I was aware of the wounds, but I was lucky as it could have been even more serious.”
Pant further said that once he survived he had the confidence that he would be back on the field as soon as possible. Pant challenged himself to recover in six months less than the time doctors told him it would take for him to recover and he has shown massive improvement in a short time taking into account the magnitude of the accident
