Frustrated By Rishabh Pant, Anchor Breaks TV During IPL 2025 Game. Internet Says "Shocking Behaviour"

A bizarre incident took place during a YouTube live session as an anchor, who was disappointed with Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) captain Rishabh Pant's batting in the IPL 2025 match against the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH), smashed a television set in pure rage. After his six-ball duck against the Delhi Capitals (DC), Pant once again failed to live up to the expectations of his fans. With his team in a more-than-comfortable position to win the match, Pant score a run-a-ball 15 before being caught at short third.

Enraged with Pant's another flop show, the sports presenter, Pankaj, lost his cool, breaking the TV screen and almost tossed a glass table in front of him. Veteran sports journalist Vikrant Gupta, who was also part of the discussion, had a wry smile on his face while Pankaj was having a go at Pant.

"IPL is going on. He (Rishabh Pant) had his chance but I'm telling you, he has become predictable. You cannot trust him. What sort of a captain is he? We don't need a captain like him," Pankaj said during a live discussion on Sports Tak, before throwing an object at the TV screen.
