Ricky Ponting Reveals Why PBKS Didn't Bid For Rishabh Pant At IPL 2025 Auction

Punjab Kings head coach Ricky Ponting rolled the dice and it was Shreyas Iyer's turn to fetch the big bucks from the franchise, not Rishabh Pant's.

In fact, PBKS didn't even bid for the coveted wicket-keeper batter who was eventually sold to Lucknow Super Giants for INR 27 crore, a record fee in IPL auction history. Later, Ponting gave subtle little reply when asked about the absence of a bid for Pant.
