In the IPL 2025 match against Punjab Kings (PBKS), Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) suffered a defeat by 37 runs. Following the loss, LSG skipper Rishabh Pant feels that dropping catches at the wrong time can hurt any side badly.
"Definitely too many runs. When you drop crucial catches at the wrong time, it can hurt you badly. We thought it would do more, but we did not pick the length right at the start. But that is part and parcel of the game," said Pant during the post-match presentation.
