IPL 2024: Gavaskar’s Encouraging Words for Rishabh Pant After Sunrisers Defeat Delhi Capitals

Rishabh Pant looked obviously dejected on Saturday. And with good reason. His team had just lost horribly against SunRisers Hyderabad, giving up 266/7 in 20 overs, a startling 67 runs short of victory at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

In a masterful moment of inspiration, Sunil Gavaskar told the young Indian player to keep his chin up when he was describing what went wrong in the post-match interview, during which Pant cut a frustrated figure. Pant was responding to Ian Bishop about the subtleties of the game, stating that he thought dew would be an important factor, but the great Gavaskar corrected him with the following.”This is Sunil, Rishabh. You have never let me down, and I hope you never do.

There are still plenty of matches to come, so go ahead.”Pant grinned as he prepared to roar back, as Gavaskar had planned. “Definitely, sir, I will try my level best.” “It is my hope that we will develop a more coherent thought process and mindset,” the Indian wicketkeeper remarked.

Against a formidable opposition, DC was all out for 199, their fifth defeat in eight games and seventh in the ten-team league. This season, DC’s performance has been erratic, alternating between successes and failures.

Pant also acknowledged that he might have made the incorrect assessment of the amount of dew at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, which resulted in the choice to field first after winning the toss. “The primary rationale for that choice was our expectation of dew, but it never happened.

One of the commentators, Sunil Gavaskar, saw Pant’s dejection following the game and gave words of encouragement: “I never want to see your spirits down; there are many games ahead.” Thus, never stop grinning.” Pant gave a positive response and promised to try his hardest.
