India, April 19 -- Lucknow Super Giants owner Sanjiv Goenka has cleared the air on reports of confrontations with captain Rishabh Pant and that he is the interfering type in cricketing matters.

KL Rahul captained Lucknow Super Giants in their maiden IPL season in 2022, and he didn't appear to have great relations with Goenka, especially towards the end of his time there. In 2024 particularly, there were several media reports which suggested Goenka wasn't happy with the way the team was playing. After Rahul left, following the 2024 edition, Pant was brought on board as team captain ahead of the 2025 season. But things didn't change much for the franchise, both on and off the field.

In the ongoing season, again those things are happening....
