“Rishabh Pant, Navdeep Saini, Harshit Rana and other Indian players will feature in the inaugural season of DPL. I had a talk with Rishabh Pant and he has promised me to participate in the league but it only depends on his availability and national commitments. But as of now, he will be playing. Navdeep and Harshit will also feature in the league,” Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) chief and league president Rohan Jaitely said.
Currently, Rishabh Pant and Harshit Rana are participating in India’s ongoing three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka. Later in August, India are not having any international commitments due to which Rishabh Pant is expected to feature in the league.
