Rishabh Pant throws the coin with full energy in a strange way

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) captain Rishabh Pant engaged in a fun banter with Delhi Capitals (DC) skipper Axar Patel at the toss

Rishabh Pant and Axar Patel engaged in some fun banter during the toss ahead of their IPL 2025 clash at the Ekana Cricket Stadium on Tuesday, April 22.

The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper threw the coin with full energy in a strange way before it went in favor of the Delhi Capitals (DC) captain.

Axar chose to bowl first, calling, “Batting, batting,” before Pant replied, “Bowling, bowling,” before the duo burst into laughter.

The duo had spent a long time playing together for the Delhi-based franchise before LSG bought Pant at a whopping INR 27 crore, making him the costliest player of all time, at the mega auction last year.

The Capitals made a solitary change as Dushmantha Chameera returned to the playing XI, replacing Mohit Sharma.

Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant gave an update about his bandaged hand, saying:

The hosts fielded an unchanged side after they beat the Rajasthan Royals (RR) by two runs in a last-ball thriller. The Super Giants are fifth with five victories in eight games.

On the other hand, DC are second in the points table with five wins in seven games. However, they lost to the Gujarat Titans (GT) by seven wickets in their previous game in Ahmedabad.
