INDIAN PREMIER LEAGUE | IPL 2026 HAS THE HIGHEST SCORING RATE AT 9.68 RR, 27 TOTALS OVER 200
MATCH TODAY – MUMBAI INDIANS VS LUCKNOW SUPER GIANTS AT 7:30 PM
Mumbai, May 3: A hefty price tag has not got anything to do with Rishabh Pant’s form with the bat and Lucknow Super Giants’ skipper is just one innings away from hitting top gear, said bowling coach Bharat Arun here on Sunday.
Pant was roped in by LSG for a whopping Rs 27 crores in the mega auction ahead of last year’s IPL, but the India wicketkeeper-batter has had an ordinary run with the bat since joining the franchise.LSG finished seventh in Pant’s first season at the helm with the left-hander making 269 runs in 14 matches at strike rate of 127.50 with one century and a fifty. This year, LSG are languishing at the bottom of the points table with only two wins in eight matches so far in which Pant has contributed with 189 runs at a strike rate of 126.84 with one half-century.
