‘My retention wasn’t about money for sure’: Pant reveals ahead of IPL auction
India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant has revealed that his release from Delhi Capitals squad ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction was not about the money.
After the first ODI in Guyana got washed out, both India and West Indies were looking to have a productive training session at the Queen’s Park Oval, the venue of the second match of the three-game rubber to be played.
However, rain gods had other plans as they didn’t allow the teams to practise their game prior to the Sunday clash. But the rain could not stop India wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant from honing his keeping skills.
On Sunday, Pant posted a video on his Instagram account where he along with chinaman Kuldeep Yadav can be seen playing cricket in the hotel corridor ahead of second ODI.

Kuldeep is seen bowling his left-arm spin in the hotel corridor and Pant, with his gloves on, keeps the turning ball. Pant shared this video saying: “Where? When? What? Who? …No sorry …I only know the “Why”.

Earlier, the Board of Control for Cricket in India also posted a photo of Rohit Sharma under an umbrella with a bat in his hand.
“Just been that kind of a day. The Hitman finding some space for fun as he rushed indoors for practice in Trinidad,” read the caption of the photo.

Having already won the T20I series 3-0, India will look to continue their dominance in the remaining two ODIs against the Carribean side.
