Carey, who was roped in by the Capitals at the IPL auction in December 2019, finds Pant an amazing cricketer to watch and thus he is looking forward to pick his mindset.

"I suppose, you know, chatting to Rishabh and the way he plays his cricket. Obviously, wicketkeeper-batsman and he's so explosive and dynamic, as a batsman," ESPNCricinfo quoted Carey as saying.

"It will be great to talk to him, he's quite unconventional in some of his cricket shots, it's amazing to see him play, so probably have a good chat about the mindset with him," he added.

It will be Alex Carey’s maiden appearance in the Indian Premier League and he can’t wait to take part in the tournament.

"Yeah, it's really exciting. It will be my first opportunity playing the IPL, so firstly it's just exciting to be a part of that competition, which we all watch and admire around the world in the T20 format," said Carey.

"And then leading into the T20 World Cups in the next couple of years... it's a great opportunity to play against the best in the world, in different conditions as well. All the net sessions we're going to have, we're going to make sure we're playing against the great spinners at Delhi Capitals and speaking to a lot of those players - Shikhar Dhawan and Ajinkya Rahane and all those senior guys - picking their brains really. Add Ricky Ponting (head coach) in as well, it's a pretty exciting list of players and staff members we've got at Delhi."

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic forced the BCCI to shift the IPL 2020 to UAE. The games will be played behind closed doors in three different cities – Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah.
