Rishabh Pant: Lucknow Supergiants captain Rishabh Pant’s days are probably not going well. Firstly, his team Lucknow is disappointing in the IPL and on the other hand, he is continuously getting injury after injury. Pant, who had to retire after getting injured against RCB, also got injured in the match against Rajasthan Royals. Pant got this injury while keeping wickets. In the 11th over of Rajasthan’s innings, a fielder threw the fourth ball and the ball went straight into Pant’s nose. Actually, the throw that came suddenly bounced from the pitch and hit Pant on the nose. This player didn’t even get a chance to recover.
the game had to be stopped
As soon as Pant got injured, the game had to be stopped immediately. The physio of Lucknow Supergiants came and checked Pant. The ball made a mark on Pant’s nose but the fortunate thing was that he did not get badly hurt. However, if the ball had hit him even a little here and there, his eyes could have been injured. Overall, Pant was very lucky.
Got hit in left elbow vs RCB Got hit on right hand vs PBKS Got it on nose vs RR
Now I believe in those astrologers who are asking him to change jersey number

getting hurt again and again
Rishabh Pant is injured for the third time in IPL 2026. Earlier against RCB, he had hit the ball on his left elbow, due to which he had to retire hurt. After this, he got injured in his right hand against Punjab Kings and now he is injured on his nose.
Pant took an excellent catch
Rishabh Pant also took an excellent catch against Rajasthan. Yashasvi Jaiswal played a pull shot on Shami’s bouncer. The ball hit Jaiswal’s gloves and Pant jumped and took an excellent catch. However, due to a mistake by Pant on the fifth ball of the 15th over, Lucknow did not get a wicket. Ferreira had a chance to be run out in the 15th over but Pant dropped the bails before he could catch the ball and the Rajasthan batsman got a lease of life.
