Pant had joined LSG for a record ₹27 crore at the 2025 mega auction, becoming the most expensive player in IPL history. He then replaced KL Rahul as captain, but LSG failed to reach the playoffs in both 2025 and 2026.
Sanjiv Goenka recently appeared on Shubhankar Mishra’s podcast and spoke about his relationship with Rishabh Pant. He made it clear that their equation did not end with the trade when he was asked about his last conversation with the Indian wicketkeeper-batter.
Sanjiv Goenka told Shubhankar Mishra on his podcast, "Our last conversation wasn't just about the trade. We have continued to speak even after that. Good luck to him and best wishes (on the conversation). We plan to have dinner one of these days.”

LSG owner reveals his special bond with Rishabh Pant
The LSG owner said that he is still very fond of Pant and praised his personality off the field. He described the 28-year-old as innocent and childlike, recalling how Pant could warmly approach people and sometimes surprise them with his unexpected pranks.
Well, Pant’s time at LSG turned out to be far from what the franchise had expected. After being bought for a record price and handed the captaincy, he could not take the team to the playoffs in either of his two seasons. He also struggled as a batter as well after joining the LSG.

Dhoni had scored 2,496 runs, while Farokh Engineer, Syed Kirmani, and Kiran More complete are the top five on the list with 1,209, 1,109, and 901 runs, respectively. Pant also moved past Australia's great Adam Gilchrist to become the third-highest six-hitter in Test cricket.
