IPL 2026: Rishabh Pant Trains Hard Under Yuvraj Singh To Sharpen White-ball Skillsets
Lucknow Super Giants: India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant shared glimpses of him training under former India batting all-rounder Yuvraj Singh in a short camp in Mumbai as he looks to revive his white-ball career ahead of IPL 2026 starting on March 28. Pant, who captains Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and is the most expensive IPL player via a Rs 27 crore deal, has not played competitive cricket since suffering a side strain while batting on the eve of Indias ODI series against New Zealand in Vadodara in January. A video of the training session that has gained huge traction on social media showed Pant facing deliveries while Yuvraj watched everything closely from the umpires position and gave him some advice. IANS understands that the sessions Pant had under Yuvraj focused on both skills and temperament for succeeding in modern-day white-ball cricket. Basically, Rishabh has been practicing very, very hard on his game and for improving his fitness too. One would have noticed that he has become leaner also, if the videos are to go by. He was very keen to work more on his white-ball game, and not just the T20 side of things. So he reached out to Yuvraj and said he wanted to train under him for three-four days. Subsequently, they trained at the CCI ground in Mumbai, before he departed for Chennai to attend LSGs ongoing pre-season camp and will be followed by another camp in Lucknow, said a source familiar with the matter to IANS on Thursday. It is also understood that the short camp was not necessarily for upping Pants T20 game only, as the wicketkeeper-batter is targeting a larger picture - of excelling for a longer period in limited-overs cricket. Pant, a member of 2024 Mens T20 World Cup and 2025 Champions Trophy winning sides, endured a poor run in IPL 2025, scoring 269 runs in 14 matches at a strike rate of 133.16, his lowest returns since debuting in the competition in 2016. Despite hitting an unbeaten 118 in LSGs final league game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, it didnt help the sides cause as they finished seventh in the points table.
