No wonder with Pant being the most expensive player in the history of IPL at INR 27 crores, he was expected to deliver.
However, the left-hander had a forgettable outing in his new LSG outfit, scoring a six-ball duck.
Soon enough, LSG fans were left enraged as they took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to voice their anger.
