New Delhi. Indian cricket team’s wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant was seen bowling in the opening match of Delhi Premier League. Pant was leading the Old Delhi 6 team. He bowled the last over of the match. When South Delhi Superstars team needed just one run to win in the last over, Pant threw away his gloves and took the charge of bowling himself. However, his first ball was a full-toss and the opposition batsman took one run and gave his team the victory. Even the commentators themselves were surprised to see Pant in a new avatar.
The Delhi Premier League started on Saturday at Delhi’s Ferozeshah Kotla ground. DDCA has started DPL for the first time on the lines of IPL.
