Match Recap: LSG’s Dominant Chase
SRH, batting first, posted a competitive 190/8, thanks to Travis Head (47) and cameos from Nitish Reddy and Aniket Verma. However, their bowlers faltered as LSG’s Nicholas Pooran (70 off 26 balls) and Marcus Stoinis (52 off 31) dismantled the attack. Despite Pant’s quiet outing (15 runs), David Miller and Abdul Samad sealed the win in just 16.1 overs.

Goenka-Pant Dynamics: From Criticism to Camaraderie
Last season, Goenka’s animated exchange with KL Rahul made headlines, and rumors swirled about his dissatisfaction after LSG’s opening loss to Delhi Capitals. However, this viral hug with Pant quashed any speculation of discord. Goenka, a passionate cricket enthusiast, has yet to lift an IPL trophy as an owner, and fans hope this year could be his breakthrough.
