At 21, Rishabh Pant HAS gone through all the highs and lows of a cricketing career. A promising talent from Delhi, Pant came into reckoning after his exploits for the India Under-19 team in the 2016 World Cup.

Going into the second season of the IPL, his confidence was sky-high and there were talks of an imminent India cap for the 2017 Champions Trophy. But life had another twist for the young batsman. Days before his team's first match - against Royal Challengers Bangalore, his father passed away, leaving a void difficult to fill. He came back to cricket from the tragedy and nearly guided his team home with a single-handed effort, and later blasted a blinding 97 against Gujarat Lions to finish the tournament with 366 runs.

This season they will be hoping him to shine this season.

IPL 2017- 366 runs in 14 matches
