Delhi Capitals skipper Rishabh Pant was visibly unhappy with his innings after getting out in the IPL 2024 clash against the Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur on Thursday. In a video that has gone viral on social media, Pant was seen hitting the curtain as he was walking back to the dressing room.

The left-hander's dismissal occurred in the 13th over of the innings as leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal threw in a wide delivery and Pant chased it. However, he got a bottom edge through to his counterpart Sanju Samson, who took an excellent catch. Hence, the Delhi-born cricketer had to walk back for 28 off 26 deliveries.

The sluggish knock of 28 comes after scoring 18 against the Punjab Kings after his long-standing return to top level cricket. The Capitals eventually fell short of 12 runs after Avesh Khan bowled a successful last over.

"We had too many runs to cover up" - Rishabh Pant

Pant, playing in his 100th match for the Capitals, reflected on the team's 2nd consecutive match, stated that the Royals' death-overs onslaught was too much for them to handle.

"Definitely disappointed. Best thing we can do from this is learn from it. The bowlers did really well till 15-16 overs, batters sometimes go on at the death and score quickly, that happened in this game. Marsh and Warner gave a good start, but we lost a few wickets in the middle overs and in the end we had too many runs to cover up."

Riyan Parag, who smashed 84 off 45 balls, earned the Player of the Match award.
