The sum of Rs 27 crore that Lucknow Super Giants spent on Rishabh Pant isn't looking good at the moment. The wicket-keeper batter has hardly gotten his bat to do the talking in the first three games for the franchise. Even his captaincy decisions have been questioned by many, with fans on social media already putting the label of a "Rs 27 crore flop" on the wicket-keeper batter. After LSG suffered their second defeat of the season, at the hands of Punjab Kings, the franchise's owner Sanji Goenka confronted Rishabh Pant again on the field, asking some tough questions.

Goenka has developed a reputation of asking questions to his team's captains. In the past even KL Rahul has had to face Goenka's wrath on the field over the team's defeats. Pant was subjected to a similar confrontation after LSG's defeat against Delhi Capitals in their opening match of the season.

Lucknow then bounced back with a victory against the Sunrisers Hyderabad but slumped to a defeat against Punjab on Tuesday. Goenka didn't shy away from confronting Pant again on the ground, triggering a social media storm. The LSG owner was even seen pointing finger at Pant during the conversation.
