Gautam Gambhir to Attend Rishabh Pant’s Sister’s Wedding Amid Rift Rumors
Speculation about a rift between Rishabh Pant and head coach Gautam Gambhir arose after Pant was benched throughout India's ICC Champions Trophy 2025 campaign. However, reports suggest there is no tension, as Gambhir is set to attend Pant’s sister Sakshi’s wedding in Mussoorie. The event, held at ITC Hotel, The Savoy, features cricket stars like MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina.
With the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 behind them, reports of a rift between Rishabh Pant and head coach Gautam Gambhir have been making headlines. Pant was benched throughout the tournament, with KL Rahul preferred as India’s first-choice wicketkeeper. Rahul justified his selection with strong performances, playing three crucial knocks in India’s victorious campaign. However, Pant’s exclusion, despite a remarkable comeback from a life-threatening accident, raised eyebrows among fans.
Amid these rumors, a recent report dismisses any tension between Pant and Gambhir. A Jagran journalist confirmed that Gambhir would attend the wedding of Pant’s sister, Sakshi, in Mussoorie, indicating that their relationship remains intact. The celebrations, held at ITC Hotel, The Savoy, have been star-studded, with MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina also in attendance. A viral video shows the trio dancing at the sangeet ceremony.
Looking ahead, Pant is set to lead Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in IPL 2025, with their first match against his former team, Delhi Capitals, on March 24. Meanwhile, Dhoni will return for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) when they face Mumbai Indians on March 23. With Gambhir attending the wedding, speculation about a rift seems to have been put to rest.
