Rishabh Pant’s woeful run in IPL 2025 continued on a frustrating note for the Lucknow Super Giants as the skipper failed to capitalise on promotion to the top of the order in Mitchell Marsh’s absence. Opening alongside Aiden Markram against Gujarat Titans at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, Pant once again failed to deliver, and managed a sluggish 21 off 18 balls before throwing away his wicket.

Despite a slight tweak in his batting role, the change in position brought no change in fortune for him. Pant looked scratchy from the outset, struggling for rhythm and timing. His knock included four boundaries, but a series of dot balls hampered any momentum he tried to build.

He eventually perished in the seventh over, attempting to go big over the covers off Prasidh Krishna, only to sky a top edge straight to Washington Sundar at third man.

Earlier in his innings, Rishabh Pant had survived a life when Jos Buttler failed to grab a straightforward chance. Despite the reprieve, Pant couldn’t settle in and left the scoring load to Markram, who kept the scoreboard ticking during the powerplay.

Following his departure, fans took to social media to vent their frustration.
