AI predicts how many runs Rishabh Pant will score in today's SRH vs LSG IPL 2025 match
Rishabh Pant had a forgettable outing in his first match as Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) captain in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Purchased for a record ₹27 crore at the mega auction, he was out for a six-ball duck in LSG's opening match of the season against Delhi Capitals (DC). He was poor behind the stumps too and missed a stumping in the dying stages as DC sneaked home to a one-wicket win.
Pant will be keen to come up with a much better effort when LSG take on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad in their second IPL 2025 match on Thursday, March 27. Fans would also be keen to see the aggressive southpaw score some runs. As such, we asked Grok AI to predict how many runs Pant will score in today's SRH vs LSG clash.
As per the AI chatbot, the Lucknow skipper would be motivated to bounce back after registering a duck in LSG's opening IPL 2025 match against DC. It termed the surface at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad a batting-friendly surface, which might suit Pant if he gets going. Grok further predicted:
"Given his talent and the conditions, a score in the range of 20-50 runs seems plausible if he gets a start."
"As LSG captain and a key batsman, Pant is likely to bat in the top order (possibly at No. 3 or 4), giving him a good opportunity to score. His IPL career strike rate is around 148, and he’s known for aggressive, match-defining knocks. Some speculation on X suggests he could score between 30-40 runs if LSG bats first, though this is purely a fan’s guess," the AI chatbot stated in reply to the query.
Pant was dismissed by left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav in LSG's first match in IPL 2025 against DC. Having failed to get off the mark after facing five balls, he was caught at long-off following a failed endeavor to take on Kuldeep.
