Glenn Maxwell hat Rishabh Pant zum dritten Mal in 16 Lieferungen entlassen, mit denen er ihm konfrontiert war. Es erweitert auch Pants schlechte Form in IPL 2025.
Rishabh Pant’s IPL 2025 journey with the bat has been a nightmare so far. On Tuesday, the newly appointed Lucknow Super Giants captain was dismissed for 2 against Punjab Kings.
Pant, who became the most expensive player in IPL auction history when LSG bought him for Rs 27 crore, was dismissed for a duck against Delhi Capitals and then managed to score only 15 against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Up against PBKS led by Shreyas Iyer, Pant had to deal with a dangerous match-up. He walked in to bat after Mitchell Marsh and Aiden Markram were dismissed, and immediately had to face Glenn Maxwell.
It was a smarch match-up by Iyer, who is incidentally the second most expensive player in IPL auctions and Pant’s former teammate at DC.
Maxwell had dismissed Pant on two occasions in the IPL earlier – the dashing wicketkeeper batsman had only scored 11 runs in 12 balls against the Australian all-rounder.
On Tuesday, Pant lasted only 5 balls and scored 2 runs before hitting Maxwell straight to Yuzvendra Chahal at short fine leg. It was an ordinary delivery at best and Pant’s half-hearted effort could not have sat well with the LSG dug-out.
Rishabh Pant was bought by LSG after an intense bidding war. They needed to get an Indian superstar after KL Rahul moved on following a poor 2024 season when the former captain was apparently given a public dressing-down by Sanjeev Goenka, the team owner.
