Rishabh Pant IPL 2025 Team: Rishabh Pant has been playing for Delhi Capitals since 2016, but now there is speculation that he will not be retained by Delhi Capitals in IPL 2025. Pant has played 111 matches for Delhi in the Indian Premier League, in which he has 3,284 runs to his name. According to many reports, DC’s management believes that Pant can play good cricket without captaincy. In such a situation, rumors of not only him losing his captaincy but also him leaving Delhi Capitals are at their peak. There are many teams that will need a wicketkeeper batsman in IPL 2025.
Let us remind you that Rishabh Pant had asked in a tweet a few days ago that if he goes to the auction, how much will be bid for him? This post of his had created an uproar in the cricket world. Dinesh Karthik has retired, so Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will need a top wicketkeeper batsman. But meanwhile, New Zealand’s veteran player Simon Doull predicted during the India-New Zealand second test that CSK can also make a very high bid on Pant.
Will CSK buy Rishabh Pant?
MS Dhoni has been keeping wickets for Chennai Super Kings since the beginning of IPL, but there is still doubt about his playing in IPL 2025. If not now, Dhoni will probably retire after one or two seasons, in such a situation CSK will have to look for a new wicketkeeper. So, is Chennai bidding big on Rishabh Pant and seeing him as its future wicketkeeper and captain?
Even if Pant joins Chennai Super Kings, Rituraj Gaikwad can become an obstacle in his path for the post of captaincy. In IPL 2024, CSK performed well under the captaincy of Gaikwad and it is possible that he will be taking charge of the team after Dhoni. If Pant has the desire for captaincy then maybe CSK management should not bid for him. Actually, it all depends on whether Rishabh Pant wants to be the captain or not.
