Yuvraj Singh, the renowned former Indian all-rounder, has come forward to support Rishabh Pant, who is currently under scrutiny for his performance in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season. As the captain of the Lucknow Super Giants, Pant's recent outing against the Delhi Capitals was disappointing, where he managed only 7 runs off 9 balls before being run out. Yuvraj, who has faced his own battles with health, including a fight against cancer, expressed empathy towards Pant's situation, noting the mental and physical challenges he has faced following a life-threatening accident and subsequent injuries. Yuvraj emphasized the difficulty of understanding the mental space Pant is currently in, highlighting the impact of his injuries on his confidence and rhythm. He believes that Pant is determined to improve and return to form, particularly in white-ball cricket, and refrained from disclosing personal conversations between them, respecting their privacy regarding setbacks and life challenges.
