Just want to switch off for a few days: Pant after LSG's campaign in IPL 2025
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|May 29, 2025
Ending a lengthy lean patch, Rishabh Pant returned to form with a blistering century albeit in a losing cause after his team Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) bowed out of IPL 2025 with a six-wicket loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in their final league match in Lucknow on Tuesday.
As the focus shifts to the crucial five-Test series against England, starting June 20, Pant, who was recently named the vice-captain of the Test team, that's undergoing a significant transition phase, with the recent retirements of three stalwarts—Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin, will now form a part of the leadership group along with skipper Shubman Gill.
After completing his IPL duties on Tuesday, the wicketkeeper-batter said that he will switch off for a few days before starting preparations for the grueling Test series, that marks the start of the new World Test Championship cycle. "Just want to switch off for a few days, not think about cricket and then the England series is coming up and just preparing for that in a good frame of mind," he said.

End single-use to turn the tide on plastic
lastic pollution is an increasing global crisis despite large-scale awareness and extensive mitigation efforts. Existing waste management systems and recycling technologies have failed to control the plastic menace. According to the United Nations Environment Programme, about 9.2 billion tonnes of plastic materials were produced between 1950 and 2017, with 7 billion tonnes ending up in landfills or the environment. The Global Plastic Outlook 2022 report of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) confirms that less than 10 per cent of plastic waste is recycled. It has now become clear that we cannot recycle our way out of the plastic crisis.
