Yuvraj jokingly called out other mentees like Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma for not reciprocating. However, Pant has struggled in IPL 2026, averaging 25. 50 across nine innings for LSG.
Rishabh Pant's golf club gift to Yuvraj goes viral as mentor playfully shames Gill & Abhishek Yuvraj Singh shared a video on social media, opening a gift pack sent by Lucknow Super Giants' skipper Rishabh Pant, which was a golf club. The club came with a note written on the golf bag that read: "Dear Yuvi paaji, thank you for your support and guidance. See you on the golf course.
Love RP. " Having endured a below-par previous season and then finding himself left out of India's T20 World Cup squad, Pant's standing in white-ball cricket had taken a visible knock. Determined to arrest the slide, he reached out to Yuvraj, for support ahead of the tournament.
Yuvraj worked alongside Pant during practice sessions, with the focus resting almost entirely on the mental side of the game: rebuilding self-belief, sharpening decision-making, and restoring the fearlessness that once defined Pant's batting. As a way of showing his appreciation, Pant presented Yuvraj with the golf club. The delight on his face was obvious.
