IPL 2026: Rishabh Pant apologises to fans, Arjun Tendulkar debuts for ...
Lucknow Super Giants captain Rishabh Pant apologised to the franchise's fans ahead of their final game of the Indian Premier League 2026 season on Sunday, May 24. LSG, who once again endured a difficult campaign in the tournament, are languishing at the bottom of the points table with just four wins in 13 matches.Speaking at the toss before their clash against Punjab Kings at the Ekana Stadium, Pant admitted that the season had been tough on both the players and the supporters. The wicketkeeper-batter thanked fans from across Uttar Pradesh for continuing to back the side despite their struggles and promised that the team would return stronger next season."See, everyone knows it has been a tough season for us.

With LSG already eliminated from the playoffs race, the franchise finally decided to hand the legendary surname Tendulkar a chance on the big stage.RISHABH PANT'S APOLOGYRishabh Pant's apology came at the end of what has been a deeply confusing season for Lucknow Super Giants. A visibly frustrated Pant had hinted multiple times through his on-field interviews that there were perhaps too many voices involved in taking key decisions within the team setup.Several of LSG's tactical calls raised eyebrows through the course of the season, starting with the decision to break up the successful opening pair of Mitchell Marsh and Aiden Markram early in the campaign. Beyond the opening combination, LSG also struggled to provide Pan...
