LSG’s season has been filled with tactical confusion, inconsistent team combinations, and underwhelming results despite having a good squad on paper. The numbers themselves tell the story. LSG have lost nine of their 13 matches so far and currently sit at the bottom of the points table.
The latest moment came after LSG’s crushing defeat against the Rajasthan Royals at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. Despite posting 220 on the board, Lucknow failed to defend the total as Vaibhav Sooryavanshi smashed a breathtaking 93 off just 38 deliveries while Dhruv Jurel finished the chase with an unbeaten 53.
“We are proud of the team, regardless of how the situation is. Regardless of the table, we are confident of the team,” Pant said. “It hasn’t gone our way, and everyone knows that. But that doesn’t take away the fact that we are a f***ing good team."

— Merupranta Saikia (@MeruprantaMSD) May 19, 2026“Too many minds” at LSG, claims Rishabh Pant
Pant's mind seems cluttered, but there is one thing that is very clear about, which is that there are too many voices at LSG.
Pant first openly hinted at internal tactical confusion after LSG’s heartbreaking Super Over defeat against the Kolkata Knight Riders earlier this season.
After the loss, Pant was questioned about some of his bowling decisions, especially giving Digvesh Rathi a crucial over where Rinku Singh hammered four consecutive sixes. And his response was interesting.
His comments strongly hinted that the sheer volume of tactical inputs may actually be complicating decision-making during high-pressure situations.

Despite chasing 188 and losing quick wickets after a dominant opening partnership, Pant surprisingly did not come out to bat. Nicholas Pooran, Abdul Samad, and Mukul Choudhary were all promoted ahead of the captain. After the game, Pant openly admitted that the call was not entirely his own.
“Sometimes it's difficult when thought process is not being implemented all the time. It’s frustrating when you know what you have as a team, [but] just because of little thought process here and there and you can't implement things the way you want. The only thing that can harm us is having too many thought process.”
Decoding Rishabh Pant's explosive remarks
Taken individually, each comment could perhaps be dismissed as emotional reactions during a difficult season. But together, they paint a very different picture.
Also, there have been times when Rishabh Pant has been seen having animated chats with team owner Sanjiv Goenka on the field after the losses, which went massively viral and sparked debates around owner involvement and dressing-room pressure.
And despite having one of the most experienced support staffs in the league, the results simply have not followed. Pant’s body language throughout the campaign has also looked noticeably different compared to previous years. Usually expressive and emotional by nature, he now often appears drained during tactical discussions and post-match interviews.
The F-bomb after the Rajasthan Royals' defeat perhaps summed it up best. It did not feel like a captain merely defending his side; instead, it looked like those were the words from a totally frustrated skipper.
