Yuvraj Singh received a thoughtful gift from Rishabh Pant after mentoring him ahead of the ongoing IPL season. Pant, who had a difficult previous season and missed out on the T20 World Cup squad, sought Yuvraj’s guidance to rebuild his confidence and sharpen his approach. In appreciation, Pant presented Yuvraj with a golf club, reflecting gratitude and a personal touch. Yuvraj, who has taken up golf since retiring from cricket, shared a video thanking Pant for the gesture. He playfully teased his other mentees for not matching Pant’s thoughtful gift.
Meanwhile, Pant has struggled in the IPL 2026 season, scoring 204 runs in nine innings at an average of 25.50. Despite his reputation for shifting momentum quickly, he has only hit 19 fours and seven sixes, with just one half-century to his name. Pant’s inconsistency has affected his team’s performance, as they are currently at the bottom of the points table with only two wins in nine matches. Despite the guidance he received from Yuvraj, Pant is still searching for rhythm and a turnaround in his form to help his team in the playoffs race.
