"Don't Want To Take Unnecessary Pressure": India Star On Rishabh Pant's Return

Indian cricket team wicket-keeper batter Dhruv Jurel had a good outing in the Test series against England earlier in 2024 with 190 runs in four innings across three Tests.

Rishabh Pant had a good showing in the T20 World Cup 2024 and with his inclusion for the Duleep Trophy, the selectors have shown great trust in him. KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan have also staked their claim for a spot in the India squad with Jurel finding himself in a tough fight. However, the youngster remains unfazed by the challenges and he said that he wants to take one day at a time without any kind of "unnecessary pressure".
