The LSG captain has failed to lead his team from the front this season. With LSG now in a do-or-die situation for a place in the playoffs, the onus was on Rishabh Pant to play a captain's knock against Sunrisers Hyderabad. LSG were in a commanding position when their captain walked out to bat.
Asked to bat first, LSG were off to a solid start with Aiden Markram and Mitchell Marsh firing on all cylinders right from the start. The in-form openers added 115 runs in less than 11 overs before Marsh was dismissed by Harsh Dubey. The Australian allrounder departed after scoring 65 runs off 39 balls with the help of 6 fours and 4 sixes.
However, Rishabh Pant once again disappointed with the bat and was out for just 7 runs off 6 balls. He was dismissed by Eshan Malinga on the last ball of the 12th over. After Pant's dismissal, Sanjiv Goenka left the balcony and walked inside. And as Pant flopped with the bat once again, the fans were quick to react and slam him for yet another poor outing.
Here are some of the reactions to Pant's latest failure with the bat:
