Ricky Ponting gives me full freedom at Delhi Capitals: Rishabh Pant

New Delhi: Rishabh Pant's propensity to go for the jugular at the outset has often led to his downfall but his IPL franchise Delhi Capitals' coach Ricky Ponting still allows him freedom to do "whatever" he wants to.

"He gives me a free hand. He says do whatever you want to do," Pant said during an Instagram chat with his franchise.

He also called the IPL 2018 season a "life-changing" one for him.

Pant had scored over 650 runs in 14 matches in that IPL at 52.61 and a strike rate of 158.41 with six half centuries.
