IPL 2026: Why Not Try Players Who Have Not Played Much, Reveals Pant On Skipping Bat Vs CSK
Lucknow Super Giants: Rishabh Pant has revealed that he deliberately chose not to bat during Lucknow Super Giants’ successful chase against Chennai Super Kings in Lucknow, saying the decision was taken to give opportunities to players who had not received enough game time in IPL 2026.
Padded up in the dugout and looking ready to bat, Pant was a surprise absentee even after LSG lost three wickets in quick succession after cruising to 135 for no loss in the 12th over in the chase of 188.
Nicholas Pooran, instead, came in at No. 3 followed by Abdul Samad and Mukul Choudhary as Lucknow eventually completed the chase comfortably with seven wickets in hand.
