"Fake News With Agenda" - Rishabh Pant Slams Journalist
The journalist reported that Pant will be released ahead of the next auction
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper Rishabh Pant slammed a journalist on ‘X’ for saying that the franchise will release him ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 auction.
Both Pant and LSG are having a terrible IPL 2025 and have already been knocked out of the competition.
Pant, who was bought for INR 27 crore in the IPL 2025 mega auction, has only managed 135 runs in 13 games at an average of 12.27 and a strike rate of 100.
“I understand fake News gives more traction To content but let’s not built everything around it. Little sense and credible news will help more rather making fake news with agenda,” wrote Pant.
“Thanks have a good day. Let’s be responsible and sensible what we put out on social media."
The Super Giants have won only five on their 12 encounters so far in the IPL 2025.
They are playing Gujarat Titans (GT) on May 22 and will end the season with a game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) on May 27.
