Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital: India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant is likely to check into the BCCI Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru on Monday to begin rehabilitation for recovering from a fractured right foot sustained in the fourth Test against England in Manchester in July.

IANS understands that Pant travelling to Bengaluru and checking into the CoE later on Monday was decided at the very last moment. This agency has also reliably learnt that the cast on Pant’s right foot has now been removed, with the wicketkeeper-batter walking freely at the moment and showing no signs of limping.

After coming back home from the United Kingdom, Pant had been in consultation with medical experts, including Mumbai-based Dr Dinshaw Pardiwala about the progress on his fractured right foot.
