IPL 2024: Punjab Kings Win Toss, Elect To Bowl First Against Delhi Capitals On Pant’s Return To Cricket
Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket: Punjab Kings captain Shikhar Dhawan has won the toss and elected to bowl first against Delhi Capitals, who are seeing the return of their captain Rishabh Pant to competitive cricket action after 14 months at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium on Saturday.
Pant, the left-handed wicketkeeper-batter, makes his return to competitive cricket after fully recovering from a life-threatening accident in December 2022. Seeing him walk at the toss as DC’s captain was absolutely life-affirming, proving that willpower, determination and perseverance can make miracles happen in life.
The venue is making its IPL debut, becoming the 36th venue to be a host of the league’s matches. Dhawan said Liam Livingstone, Jonny Bairstow, Sam Curran and Kagiso Rabada are their overseas players for Saturday’s match.
