Rishabh Pant, the captain of the Lucknow Super Giants, has been struggling in the ongoing IPL season despite being bought for a record-breaking ₹27 crore in last year’s auction. With scores of 0, 15, and 2, Pant’s performance has been below par, leading to concerns about his form and mindset. Leg-spinner Piyush Chawla believes that Pant’s struggles are not due to the pressure of his price tag, but rather his lack of form since last year. Pant’s subdued demeanor on the field, especially behind the stumps, is a stark contrast to his usual energetic and vocal self, indicating that he may be grappling with inner struggles. LSG, who invested heavily in Pant after releasing KL Rahul, are hopeful that he will rediscover his form and lead the team to success. As the tournament progresses, all eyes will be on Pant to see if he can overcome his challenges and deliver on the high expectations set for him.
