Pant, who played a crucial role in his team’s win with a scintillating knock of 88 runs off just 43 balls, had to apologize to a cameraperson named Debasish after inadvertently hitting him with a powerful six during his innings. Discover the incident’s details and Pant’s sportsmanship.
The match, which took place at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, saw Delhi Capitals post a formidable total of 224 runs batting first. Pant’s aggressive batting display, which included 5 fours and 8 sixes, was instrumental in his team’s total.
