Rishabh Pant with his team Lucknow Supergiants
The Lucknow has started with another IPL defeat for Supergiants, while Delhi Capitals have started with victory. Meanwhile, the player who is the most responsible for the defeat of LSG is none other than Rishabh Pant, the captain of the team. He was bought by LSG at such expensive prices that he became the most expensive player in IPL history. But in the very first match, where he was out for zero as the captain of Lucknow Supergiants, he also defeated the winning match by his mistake. This necklace must have been pricking LAzsey a lot.
Rishabh Pant is the most expensive player in IPL history
When the auction for IPL 2025, when Rishabh Pant’s name was called, many teams opened their treasures for him. In a few minutes, his bid crossed five crores and after that even ten crores crossed. After this, 15 crore and 20 crores also started talking. But it was surprising, when the dialect crossed 25 crores as well. But finally Lucknow Supergiants took him into his court for Rs 27 crore. With this, he became the most expensive player in IPL history. Never before has any player received so much money before this. It was expected that Rishabh Pant would do something amazing with his batting and keeping. He was also made the new captain of the team, but the opposite happened. When his batting came, Rishabh Pant could not even open the account and returned to the pavilion after being dismissed for zero runs.
Only two overs were done with Shardul Thakur
Even after this, Rishabh Pant had a chance that he could win his team. Captain Rishabh Pant scored only two overs with the Shardul Thakur who took two wickets in the first over by taking two wickets in the first over. When the match was trapped in the last three four overs, it was hoped that Shardul Thakur would come for at least one over, but Rishabh Pant kept distance from him. No one understood why Pant took such a decision.
Rishabh Pant also lost the opportunity to stump Mohit Sharma
Not only this, when Delhi Capitals were to score six runs in the last over and Mohit Sharma was at the crease, Mohit Sharma was outside the crease on the first ball of 20 overs and Rishabh Pant could stump him out, but he could not hold the ball properly behind the wicket and Mohit Sharma was left out. On the second ball of the same over, Mohit Sharma took a run and gave a strike to Ashutosh Sharma. Ashutosh Sharma was just looking for this. On the third ball, Ashutosh gave his team victory by placing Karara Six. Delhi Capitals needed five runs on the last four balls, but Ashutosh put the match in his team’s bag. Now after the match, perhaps Rishabh Pant will realize his mistake. Hopefully they will not repeat this mistake again.
