Rishabh Pant wants LSG to learn and move forward from disappointing IPL 2025
Lucknow Super Giants captain Rishabh Pant has called on his side to reflect on the lessons from a disappointing IPL campaign, after a consolation victory over Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad brought their season to a close. Speaking at the post-match presentation on 22 May, Pant admitted his team had "faltered at crucial moments" and stressed the importance of moving forward with renewed Super Giants began the tournament strongly, registering five wins in their opening eight fixtures. However, a four-match losing streak midway through the campaign derailed their playoff ambitions, leaving them out of contention before their final group game. Injuries played a significant role in their decline, particularly within the fast-bowling unit. Mohsin Khan, Akash Deep, Avesh Khan, and Mayank Yadav were all unavailable at the start of the season. Although some returned in the latter stages, the instability in the attack proved costly.| GT vs LSG, IPL 2025 Highlights | Pant also pointed to issues on the field, acknowledging that lapses in concentration and poor execution during crunch moments hurt the team's cause. Yet, rather than focus solely on what went wrong, the skipper emphasised the need to learn from the setbacks and channel those lessons into building a stronger, more resilient outfit for the happy. We have shown as a team that we can play good cricket. There was a time in the tournament when we had chances to qualify. But that's part and parcel of the game. We need to learn and get better," Pant said during the post-match Lucknow dented Gujarat Titans' top two chances with a 33-run win in their 13th league game. Australian opener Mitchell Marsh delivered one of the most memorable individual performances of the season, hammering a blistering 117 off just 64 balls—his maiden IPL century—to propel LSG to a formidable total of 235 for the bowling front, New Zealand pacer Will O'Rourke, a late-season replacement for the injured Mayank Yadav, made an immediate impact. He returned impressive figures of 3 for 27, helping restrict GT to 202 for 9, despite a spirited counterattack from Shahrukh Khan, who scored a quickfire 57."It's always a question of getting the top three, but the way Shahrukh batted definitely gives hope down the order as well. There were injury concerns coming into the tournament. The way Mitch, Markram, Pooran, and the whole batting unit performed - that was heartening. Yes, we had lapses in the field. But we'll learn from them and move forward," Pant In

Mohammad Kaif Slams Rishabh Pant After LSG Fail To Qualify For IPL 2025 Playoffs
Former India player Mohammad Kaif lashed out at Rishabh Pant for citing multiple injuries to key bowlers as one major reason behind Lucknow Super Giants' struggles and league stage exit at this year's Indian Premier League. After LSG suffered a defeat by six wickets against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Monday (May 19) and crashed out of the playoffs race, skipper Pant had blamed the absence of their important pacers – Mayank Yadav and Mohsin Khan – for their underperformance this season. Kaif didn't buy Pant's post-match comments and lambasted the captain and his team for their pre-season planning and strategy, banking on such injury-prone options. While express speedster Mayank Yadav was retained for Rs 11 crores, LSG offered left-arm quick Mohsin Khan Rs 4 crores to stay with the squad ahead of the IPL 2025 auction. But Yadav could only play two games amid sustained back injury troubles, and Mohsin couldn't take part in any of LSG's matches. advetisement
