The Indian team may face a significant setback before their upcoming match against Bangladesh. Wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant sustained an injury during practice. While the severity of the injury remains unclear, it poses a considerable concern for the Indian team.
Sports News: Worrying news has emerged for Team India ahead of the Champions Trophy 2025. The team has arrived in Dubai and commenced practice, but during a session, wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant suffered an injury. Reports suggest Pant sustained a knee injury and appeared visibly distressed. Immediately after the injury, Pant fell to the ground, and the Indian team physio attended to him.
Currently, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has not released any official update on the matter. The severity of Pant's injury remains uncertain, presenting a major question mark for the Indian team, especially just before the first Champions Trophy match. The team management will make a decision soon, and if Pant is unfit, another player may be given an opportunity.

Another challenge has emerged for Rishabh Pant. After a serious car accident in December 2022, Pant made a comeback after recovering from his injuries. However, a new knee injury raises further concerns about his fitness. This injury could be a significant setback for Pant, given his crucial role as a wicketkeeper-batter in the team.
Team India's first match is against Bangladesh on February 20th, with all matches scheduled in Dubai. However, Team India's playing eleven has not yet been announced, nor has the BCCI provided an official update on Pant's injury. If Pant is unfit, he may be excluded from the playing eleven, and another player could take his place.
