IPL auction 2025: Amid ongoing speculations of why Punjab Super Kings did not bid for Rishabh Pant — who was eventually sold off for a whopping ₹27 crore, the team’s head coach Ricky Ponting revealed the reason of why PKSB did not make a go for the wicket keeper batter.
Ponting acknowledged Rishabh Pant’s influence but stated that after signing Shreyas Iyer, the franchise was not interested in entering a bidding war for Pant. “I haven’t got it yet. I got the other one. I mean, Rishabh, everyone knows what Rishabh can do, his value to the game, his value to the team. He is a dynamic player, has an infectious attitude and is a winner,” Pant said, ANI reported.
