The news was confirmed by Rishabh Pant during the toss.
In a big setback for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), the Rishabh Pant-led side will be without the services of star Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh for their match against the Gujarat Titans in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2025).
The news was confirmed by Pant during the coin toss. The wicketkeeper-batter revealed that Marsh is missing out due to personal reasons since his daughter is unwell. In his absence, LSG have handed a debut to Delhi batter Himmat Singh.
Confirming the development, Pant said, “Instead of Mitchell Marsh, Himmat Singh comes in. His daughter is not well.”
The Australian have been in tremendous form at the top of the LSG batting order so far. In five matches, he has scored 265 runs at an impressive average of 53.00 and a fiery strike rate of 180.27.
The 81 (48) against KKR has been Marsh’s highest score this season and is currently third in the Orange Cap race.
