What Happened
Rishabh Pant has scored 104 runs in five innings for Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2026 at 122.35 strike rate. Former India batter Navjot Singh Sidhu says Pant is getting himself out rather than being dismissed by bowlers. Sidhu noted LSG's top-order batters including Mitchell Marsh, Aiden Markram, and Nicholas Pooran are underperforming. He emphasized the team needs soul-searching as partnerships remain missing despite individual talent.
