The Indian Cricket team will have to wait a little longer for the return of their Star Wicket keeper Batsman, Rishabh Pant, which was excluded during the English series. Pant is expected to return to the test side, but not before the South Africa series, according to the latest report in Dainik Jagran.
The Indian Wicket keeper Batter Rishabh Pant Misted Field Promotion since he was excluded after a break on his right foot during the fourth test of the English series. The courageous left-handed fittings missed the opportunity to be part of the glorious series of India in the oval.
He also missed the Asia Cup 2025 because of the break and has been under rehabilitation at the BCCI Center of Excellence in the course of recent weeks. He reported on 15 September on the COE on September 15.

The return of RISHABH Pant is delayed, according to the latest reports
After reporting to the COE, Risbh Pant underwent various tests and has since been rehabilitation. He saw the hiking shoes put on, which would lead to the early healing of the Wicket keeper fittings.
According to the earlier reports on September 15, his boots had to be removed after a week, which means that the boots would have been removed in the meantime, and the pants may gradually train to put more weight on his legs.
However, with reference to his condition and the speed of recovery, it can easily be predicted that Pant will not make his return quickly. As a result, he can be expected to miss the coming schedule against West -India, which will start on 2 October.
Pant probably lacks the ODI referee against the Aussies; Probably return for tests against the Proteas
India has a full schedule this year, in which the West India tour starts only 4 days after the end of the Asia Cup 2025. After the West India Home Tour, India will travel to Australia for an ODI of three games and five games, which is planned to start on October 19.
RISHABH Pant may also not be available in that White-Ball Tour. According to the reports of Abhishek Tripathi about the Dainik Jagran, Pant would probably be on action from the South Africa series.
The series is one of the largest home series for India in 2025-26, because it contains two tests, three ODIs and five T20i’s, which are planned to start on November 14. It is estimated by the medical staff of COE that at least three to four weeks would be needed to make pants to return to competitive cricket.
Dhruv Jurgel can be complicated as India’s first choice in the West Indies tests
Although pant is most likely not available for the West -India test series, this might be a chance for players such as Dhruv Jurget, Sarfaraz Khan and Narayan Jagadeesan. Although Sarfaraz is not a keeper, he can be lossed as a crucial middle seizure attachment.
Dhruv Jurgel, however, seems the most ideal option of the three to be included in the Indian Line -up. He worked as Pant’s replacement in the entire series of England, scored a stunning hundred in India a vs Australia, a multi -day game and has the possibility to switch to an aggressive brand test cricket, just like Rishabh Pant.
