On the morning of December 30, 2022, Pant was involved in a shocking car accident on the Delhi-Roorkee highway. He escaped from his vehicle by breaking glass and was subsequently aided by some members of the public.

In a video posted on the Indian Premier League’s (IPL) social media handle last month, the stumper recalled the horrific accident and admitted that he considers himself lucky to have survived.

"The kind of accident I had, I am lucky to be alive. The first part of recovery was so challenging with lots of pain but now recovery is going well. More from a physical point of view because in the starting there was a lot of pain to be endured. But just looking forward to the journey till now. I think it's been going really well from a recovery point of view," he said.

Pant, who is the captain of the Delhi Capitals (DC) franchise in the IPL, attended the 2024 mini-auction along with head coach Ricky Ponting and Director of Cricket Sourav Ganguly.

The left-handed batter has played 98 IPL games so far, scoring 2,838 runs at an average of 34.61 and a strike rate of 147.97 with one hundred and 15 half-centuries.
