Humanity died

Earlier, Pant was not included in either the ODI or the T20I squad and the BCCI media release didn’t clarify if he was injured, rested, or dropped.
The wicketkeeper-batter didn’t feature in the ODIs in Bangladesh as well before returning for the two-match Test series.
As per reports, the cricketer has a long road to recovery ahead and may lose a year in cricket.
