[Watch] "Keeper allrounder anyone?" - Rishabh Pant bowls in nets ahead of DC's IPL 2024 match against RCB

Delhi Capitals (DC) skipper Rishabh Pant decided to roll his arm over during a recent IPL 2024 practice session. The wicketkeeper-batter shared a picture on social media, where he can be seen bowling with an action similar to former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan's.

Pant also posted an Instagram story of the same picture, tagging star speedster Jasprit Bumrah. The southpaw captioned the post:

"Keeper allrounder anyone?"

Irfan Pathan responded to Rishabh Pant copying his bowling action. The cricketer-turned-commentator wrote:

"Same same but different 😂."

You can watch the video of Pant's bowling below:

Rishabh Pant returned to competitive cricket with the ongoing IPL 2024 after being on the sidelines for around 14 months due to the multiple injuries he suffered in a horrific car crash.

Since his return, he has looked in good touch with the bat. With 413 runs from 12 innings, the southpaw is Delhi's leading run-getter this season. He has three half-centuries to his name and his runs have come at a strike rate of 156.43.
