India wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant has begun going through a series of match-simulation exercises in Bengaluru as he looks to regain fitness ahead of the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) according to ESPNcricinfo.
Former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting has applauded the young opener Jake Fraser-McGurk on Wednesday and opined that he reminds him of David Warner's early stage
Delhi Capitals head coach Ricky Ponting that Rishabh Pant is "very confident" about playing the entire Indian Premier League (IPL) but the former Baggy Greens star is unsure whether he would be able to play the wicketkeeping role.
Former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting has been appointed as the head coach of Washington Freedom ahead of the second season of the Major League Cricket (MLC).

Warner made this upward movement in record books during the second Test against Pakistan, a Boxing Day affair, at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Tuesday.
The franchise bagged the hard-hitting Harry Brook for INR 4 crore along with Australian fast bowler Jhye Richardson for INR 5 crore and West Indian wicketkeeper-batter Shai Hope for INR 75 lakh. The Delhi Capitals also picked up uncapped Indian wicketkeeper-batter Kumar Kushagra for INR 7.2
During one of his best innings, as he was playing under massive pressure to perform following underwhelming Test returns for the past two years, Warner entered the top five run-getters for Australia in Test cricket.
Maxwell, who last played a Test in 2017, has been in top form, with a double-century against Afghanistan in the ODI World Cup and now a century against India in the third T20I of the five-match series, all in a winning cause.
While Marcus Harris and Matthew Renshaw have been used as reserve batters in recent tours to India and England, Ponting thinks Bancroft has jumped to the top of the pecking order on the back of some sensational form at domestic level in Australia over the last few years.
