Onus on Pant to prove his worth as LSG gear up to host PBKS
Pant, who was bought for a whopping Rs 27 crore at the mega auction last year, hasn’t had the best of starts to the season, with scores of 0 and 15 in the first two matches.
On Sunday, Pant posted a video on his Instagram account where he along with chinaman Kuldeep Yadav can be seen playing cricket in the hotel corridor ahead of second ODI.
