Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will encounter Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in a much-awaited Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match at the Ekana Stadium, on Monday. Rishabh Pant’s performance this season has been underwhelming, however, the LSG skipper seems positive ahead of the upcoming match.

Rishabh Pant, ahead of the match against CSK
“I am feeling much better with every game. The more time I spend on the wicket I am going to feel better,” Rishabh Pant said ahead of LSG’s seventh match.
Nicholas Pooran leads the table of the players in the Race for the Orange Cap. LSG skipper Rishabh Pant expressed the advantage of having the power-hitter in their team.
“We are happy to have Nicholas Pooran in our team. You want someone like that to be in our team rather than the opposition. The way he has been batting is phenomenal,” Rishabh Pant said.
