Pant has reacted strongly to this comment. Rishabh Pant wrote on his X account, “I understand that fake news promotes the content more, but we should not make everything around it. Less sensible and reliable news will help more than the agenda.

Lsg owner sanjeev goenka: The biggest flop, laggard, 27 crores went waste, what people did not say for Rishabh Pant. The season of IPL 2025 has been very bad for Pant, in which he has been able to score only 135 runs in 11 innings so far. His poor form is also going on in the match against SRH, in which he has been dismissed for just 7 runs. The IPL 2025 data has proved an old prediction of Sanjeev Goenka (LSG Owner Sanjiv Goenka).

Sanjeev Goenka predicted after purchasing Rishabh Pant for Rs 27 crore in the mega auction. He said, “I believe that Pant will continue to play for the next 12-15 years. People say that Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings have achieved a lot of success. I also believe that Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni have been the best players and captains. After 10 years, people will say, Mahi, Rohit and Rishabh.”

Prophecy proved to be false

Rishabh Pant got the captaincy of Lucknow Super Giants this time. His personal performance is not only fading but he has not been able to perform amazing as a captain. Where Sanjeev Goenka used to say that after 10 years, Pant must have become a very big superstar player, but this prediction seems to be proved to be false in the first year. It is also difficult for LSG to go to the playoffs.

In IPL, Rishabh Pant has played for Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants. If we look at his captaincy records before the match against SRH, he captained Delhi Capitals in 43 matches, of which his team was victorious 23 times.

Ms dhoni vs rishabh pant: Rishabh Pant has got a huge responsibility in IPL 2025, in which he is seen failing. The captaincy of Lucknow Super Giants and the pressure of being the most expensive player in IPL history has been buried. On the one hand, the journey of Lucknow team has been full of ups and downs in the current season, on the other hand their personal performance has not been special. He is often compared to MS Dhoni for his wicketkeeping and impeccable batting style, IPL 2025 data has exposed Rishabh Pant’s pole, know how?

Dhoni-want is not equal

Whenever MS Dhoni takes DRS, the umpire has to change his decision on most occasions. For this reason, people have also started calling DRS ‘Dhoni Review System’. Rishabh Pant, who is called his successor, has taken 8 DRS so far in IPL 2025, but 7 of them has proved to be wrong. In a recent match, Pant also had a huge blunder because he himself took DRS, later it was found that the impact of the ball and pad was far from the stump line.

Personal performance is also very bad

Rishabh Pant’s personal performance in IPL 2025 has also been very poor. Although Dhoni has not been able to score much runs, but even at the age of 43, he has scored 140 runs in 9 matches. On the other hand, Rishabh Pant is still young, at the peak of his career, despite this, in IPL 2025, his bat has scored only 106 runs in 10 matches.

Not only this, in terms of total average, Rishabh Pant seems to stand far away from Dhoni. Dhoni’s average in IPL is more than 38, while Pant has scored an average of 33.6 in the Indian Premier League so far. CSK is currently struggling under Dhoni’s captaincy and is in the last place in the points table, on the other hand Lucknow is at sixth position.
