Days before his team's first match - against Royal Challengers Bangalore, his father passed away, leaving a void difficult to fill. But life had another twist for the young batsman. 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. A breakthrough season and Rishabh Pant had well and truly arrived. His first season didn't pan out the way Rishabh would have liked but he definitely vindicated the owners trust in 2017. His career so far is an epitome of the Indian Premier League's timeline 'where talent meets opportunity.' Rishabh was picked up by Delhi Daredevils at a whopping price of 1.9 Crores in the 2016 auction. The scoops, the paddles, the flicks, you name it and this bloke has every shot in his repertoire. He is a ferocious hitter of the cricket ball wide a wide array of shots and can clear the boundary ropes with ridiculous ease. If ever the definition of an ideal T20 batsman would be written, Rishabh Pant would tick most of the aspects. IPL through the years The expertise that the IPL demands and the skill set that Rishabh Pant posses are absolutely in synchronization. And this is the reason he has been retained by Delhi Daredevils where he will be playing under Gautam Gambhir and Ricky Ponting. Pant is not a finished product by any stretch of the imagination but he has all the raw materials in him to excel at the International level. Strangely, his strike rate in the International T20 is just over 100 which is well below average for a power hitter. He hasn't been himself at the international level and often tried to hit the ball too hard to his liking and failed to portray his hitting prowess. Pant again had a disappointing outing in his comeback match. This knock brought him into the selectors reckoning again and he was named in the Nidhas Trophy team. He smashed the second fastest hundred in the T-20 history in just 32 balls against Himachal Pradesh. But he made up for that in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. The second Ranji season for Rishabh wasn't as good as the first one.

In between, he made his full India debut, against England in a Twenty20 international in Bengaluru. He gained a permanent place in Delhi's domestic circuit and by the end of the season was even named as their captain, albeit for the one-day format of the game.

Pant's heroics didn't go unnoticed, and days after his Nepal stunner, he was drafted in by the Delhi Daredevils in the IPL auctions. India lost the title round - but came back with several positives - nothing bigger than the emergence of Pant.

A dashing left-handed wicket-keeper batsman, he lit up the tournament with a blitzing 24-ball 75, the fastest half-century of the tournament, against Nepal and followed it up with a century against Namibia. A promising talent from Delhi, Pant came into reckoning after his exploits for India Under-19 in the 2016 World Cup. At 19, Rishabh Pant has gone through all the highs and lows of a cricketing career.
