Sourav Ganguly, who was recently appointed Delhi Capitals head coach for IPL 2027, believes Pant can rediscover his best form if he is given a clear role in the middle order.
His numbers remained underwhelming in IPL 2026. Pant managed 312 runs in 13 innings at an average of 28.36 and a strike rate of 138.05, with his highest score being 68 not out. Across his two seasons with LSG, he accumulated 581 runs in 26 innings, with an average of 26.41.
Pant remains DC's leading run-scorer in T20 cricket, having accumulated 3,284 runs in 110 innings at an average of 35.31 and a strike rate of 148.93. His record for the franchise includes 18 fifties and a century.
We needed a middle-order batter and Rishabh Pant fits it perfectly - Sourav Ganguly
"We needed a middle-order batter and Pant fits it perfectly. He was with us and he played well for us. Next year, when he turns up again, I think he'll use the time and space and the matches to become a better player," Ganguly said in a video posted by Delhi Capitals on their official YouTube channel.
"You know he enjoys batting at the Feroz Shah Kotla (Arun Jaitley Stadium) in Delhi and hopefully we'll see the best of Pant in the years to come for the Delhi shirt," Ganguly added.

"It's not the same as a player. It's a bit different, you need to understand things, you need to be relaxed. You still need to find a way to get the best out of players and work with the players because players are different," Ganguly said.
Sourav Ganguly also spoke positively about the strength of the Delhi Capitals squad, which includes several established international players. He believes the team's challenge will be to translate that individual quality into consistent performances throughout the season.
