A young emerging Indian batsman, Rishabh Pant was one of the three players retained by DD ahead of the 2018 auction. In the 2017-18 season, he scored the fastest T20 century by an Indian. That has helped his career strike rate in the IPL to go up to 151.20.

His 32-ball ton for Delhi takes him to the second position in the list of the fastest T20 century behind Chris Gayle who has achieved the feat in 30 balls. In the 2017 IPL season, he scored 366 runs for the DD and had hit 24 sixes in the tournament.

The 2017-18 Ranji season didn’t bring many runs for Pant. However, he led Delhi to the final in the 2017-18 season.

He was also a part of the squad that was picked for the Nidahas Trophy. Pant hasn't had the best of knocks in the international cricket yet, but the coming IPL season will be a crucial one for him.
