Overview
- Yuvraj Singh posted a video unboxing a premium golf club from Rishabh Pant, reading a note that thanked him for support and promised a round on the course.
- After showing the gift, Yuvraj playfully told other mentees like Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma to “have some shame,” a tease that quickly spread across social media.
- Pant sought Yuvraj’s help before IPL 2026 to work on the mental side after a poor previous season and his omission from India’s T20 World Cup squad.
- On the field, Pant has 204 runs in nine innings at an average of 25.50 and a strike rate of 128.30, with Lucknow Super Giants stuck near the bottom with two wins in nine matches.
- Pant’s golf gift resonated because Yuvraj has taken up golf in retirement, reinforcing a mentor role he now plays with several young Indian batters.
