Rishabh Pant talks to TOI about dealing with constant criticism, working his way up, captaining Delhi Capitals, balancing life outside cricket & his reading habits...Rishabh Pant is a busy man these days. He is juggling gym sessions, net-training and shoots all day. This thankless schedule is the life of a regular IPL captain these days. Yet, his voice has an unusual calm as he squeezes out half an hour for a chat with TOI. He is the No. 1 wicketkeeper in India right now and a box office draw in world cricket. Ask him about his most satisfying and disappointing moment post the Gabba heist last year, and he calmly says: "What I have understood over a period of time is that playing international cricket is not the destination, it's a journey." Excerpts from an exclusive interview...This is your seventh season with Delhi Capitals. You became the captain at the age of 24. How does it feel?When I first came to the Capitals, I got a lot of confidence after meeting the owners, support staff. In the last three-four years, we have changed a lot as a team. I wanted to become the best player of the franchise first. I started learning from everyone around me. When I came to the IPL setup, we had gun fast bowlers like Pat Cummins, Shami, Rabada and Coulter-Nile. I told myself if I can play these prime international bowlers, I will get confidence. All these things have helped me reach the place where I am today. I added all the learning to my game but I never wanted to change my style of play.
