The thread has now received more than 2000 likes and over 250 replies. Several comments welcomed the Indian cricketer on the new platform. Some of the fans wrote, “Welcome champ”, “Welcome on threads”.
Rishabh Pant last played a game of cricket in a Test match against Bangladesh on December 22, 2022. He missed the IPL and the World Test Championship final earlier this year. However, he was recently spotted supporting his team, Delhi Capitals in their game against Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Rishabh has scored more than 2800 runs for his IPL franchise, with his best performance coming in 2018 when he scored 684 runs in the domestic campaign.
He remained on the sidelines due to a fatal road accident while travelling from Delhi to Roorkee late last year. Pant was rescued by a local bus driver who called an ambulance after helping the cricketer get out of the burning car. The Indian wicketkeeper suffered injuries on the head and a ligament injury in his right ankle. Pant is currently making a recovery at the National Cricket Academy (NCA), situated in Bengaluru. He frequently posts on social media updating his fans about the improvements he is making. In his second post on the threads app, Rishabh Pant uploaded a picture of himself walking inside a gym, suggesting his rapid recovery.
As Twitter continues to go through several changes under Elon Musk, Meta launched their version of the app called Threads in 100 countries on Thursday. The app is based on Instagram’s account system where you can follow and connect with your friends, family and influencers. The platform allows its users to share texts, links or replies to other posts. It also lets you join other public conversations where you can interact with other netizens on the internet.
