Rishabh Pant's name became a part of Indian cricket discussions for the first time about 9 and a half years ago, when this wicketkeeper-batsman made a double explosion in a single day.

It was on 6 February 2016, when Pant in Fatullah, Bangladesh, took India to the semi-finals by playing an explosive innings of 111 runs against Namibia in the quarter-finals of the Under-19 World Cup. Here Pant scored this century, on the other hand in Bangalore, he received crores of rain on the IPL 2016 season. At the age of 18, the player who created this panic has turned 28 today i.e. on October 4 and in the same way everyone is shocked.

In 2017, Rishabh Pant, who made his place in the Indian team, was born on 4 October 1997 in Roorkee, Uttarakhand.

But his cricketing career was found in Delhi, in which Pant's hard work, the courage of his family and the explanation of the coach, a famous gurudwara also played a big role. Pant started this game at a time when Team India's wicketkeeper-batsman MS Dhoni was in a boom in international cricket including India. Like Dhoni, Pant also chose to become a wicketkeeper, but like Dhoni, he came from a small town.

In Uttarakhand, that time was nothing in terms of cricket because there was no organized cricket association and state team of the state.

In such a situation, the family of small Rishabh Pant sent him to Delhi and decided to try his luck. Rishabh was only 12 years old when she started traveling to Delhi by night bus and in this, her mother Saroj Pant proved to be the biggest character, who always reached Delhi with her innocent son so that she could learn cricket under the supervision of Tarak Sinha, the legendary Sinet Cricket Club coach, Tarak Sinha.

But no relatives of the Pant family were in this city nor was there so much prosperity that the hotel could always be booked. In such a situation, Rishabh and his mother took refuge in the famous Gurdwara Moti Bagh Sahib in South Delhi.

Rishabh Pant flew his cricket career after staying here for several nights, eating food in anchor and then going to the academy for practice. Although there is a gurudwara in any corner of the world, such asylum is found everywhere, but Moti Bagh Sahib is very special in itself because it is related to the 10th Guru Gobind Singh ji of Sikhs.

It is believed that in 1707, Guru Gobind Singh, who came to meet the Mughal emperor Bahadur Shah, set up his camp at this place. It was from here that he had hit an arrow which fell directly close to Bahadur Shah's feet about 8 miles, which surprised the Mughal emperor.

Guru Gobind Singh ji lived here for many days and that is why Moti Bagh Sahib is very much recognized.

Now understand luck, understand recognition or just say coincidence, Pant, who made a cricket career by taking shelter in the gurudwara associated with Guru Gobind Singh ji, is no less bravery. Pant's father died during the IPL season in 2017, but at the age of 19, Pant went to Bangalore within 24 to 48 hours of suffering such a big shock and his father's last rites and there were 57 runs in 36 balls against Royal Challengers Bangalore from Delhi Daredevils.
