Mumbai: India wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant shared a video of himself regarding his recovery from multiple injuries he suffered in a horrific car accident in December last year.

In the video shared by Pant on his social media accounts on Wednesday, he is seen making slow walking steps in a swimming pool with the help of a stick in his left hand as a part of his recovery process.

There were no bandages on his knee or right foot, which is a sign of huge improvement on his road to recovery. "Grateful for small things, big things, And everything in between," wrote Pant in the post on his social media accounts. The BCCI commented on Twitter, 'More power to you champ'.

As per medical literature, water walking is easy on the joints for sportspersons recovering from injuries. The buoyancy of water reduces the impact on joints. Walking in water can help improve cardiovascular fitness, balance, and range of motion of the sportspersons to gain full fitness. IANS
