IPL 2025: Pant Looked Tentative From Start Of Season, Never Really Got Going, Says Varun Aaron
Lucknow Super Giants: Former India pacer Varun Aaron shared his insights on skipper Rishabh Pant’s struggling season after Lucknow Super Giants were knocked out of the playoffs race, losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad by six wickets in a must-win match, saying that the wicketkeeper-batter appeared tentative right from the beginning and was unable to find his rhythm throughout the season.
Pant, who was signed by LSG for Rs 27 crore in the mega auction, has struggled miserably this season with only 135 runs in 12 games. In Monday night's game against SRH, he was dismissed for a mere score of seven in six balls.
"LSG were relying on him, especially in the middle-order. Except for Marsh, nobody scored. Pant looked tentative from the start and never really got going this season. It’s a sign of a player out of form. A prime Pant would've launched that shot into the stands. Today, he chipped it straight to the bowler. He’s a quality player and will wake up," Aaron said on JioHotstar.
