Goenka in heated argument with Rishabh Pant after defeat, fans react

New Delhi: Punjab Kings defeated Lucknow Supergiants (LSG) by eight wickets in the 13th match of IPL 2025, handing Lucknow another loss in the tournament. Following the defeat, LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka was seen on the field, engaging in a serious conversation with Rishabh Pant.

Goenka, who had a similar interaction with KL Rahul last year, was also seen pointing towards the team’s most expensive player.

Lucknow had secured Pant for Rs 27 crore in the IPL mega auction, but he has struggled with the bat in all three matches.

As LSG suffered their third consecutive loss, Goenka’s discussion with the players drew reactions from fans on social media, with images of his exchange with Pant going viral.
