When the IPL 2025 mega auction took place, Rishabh Pant became the most discussion. Lucknow Super Giants bought him for Rs 27 crore and also made the captain of the team. Unfortunately Lucknow could not perform as expected and is out of the playoff race. Pant’s performance in IPL 2025 has also not been special, in which he has been able to score only 135 runs in 12 matches. Due to this poor performance, there was speculation that Pant has been dismissed by the LSG team, Pant himself has revealed his response on this matter.
Rishabh Pant has described these speculation on social media as fake news. He wrote, “I understand that fake news becomes a topic of discussion. A little understanding and reliable news, can be more helpful than the agenda and fake news. Thank you, be auspicious for you. Be auspicious. Be responsible what we are sharing on social media.”
Rishabh Pant is being trolled for two main reasons. One reason is that he has not scored even a half -century throughout the season. He has so far been able to score only 135 runs in 12 matches at a useless average of 12.27. On the other hand, Lucknow Super Giants had won 4 wins in 6 matches a while ago. At the same time, in the second half of the season, LSG has registered only one win in 6 matches. In such a situation, Pant has also had to become a victim of criticism for captaincy.
Before the commencement of the season, the owner of the Lucknow team Sanjeev Goenka had high hope from the captaincy of his team and Rishabh Pant. He said that after 10 years, Pant will be named with veterans like MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma.
