Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) emerged as one of the top notch teams in the Indian Premier League 2022 despite being the new entrants. The KL Rahul-led side had an impressive campaign in the 15th edition of the cash rich league as they qualified for the playoffs after securing second spot in the points table. However, despite having exceptional run in the tournament they couldn't win the first playoff match and missed their shot to the title. However, in the IPL 2023, which is set to kick start from March 31, the Lucknow side will look to fancy their title chances and go all guns blazing in the cash-rich league.
Star-studded LSG
The Lucknow side boast of one of the most formidable batting line-ups among all franchises in the tournament. Skipper Rahul leads from the front with 600+ runs in almost all seasons since 2018 along with QDK who has also been a star performer with many watch-winning contributions. The middle order is significantly well-built with Deepak Hooda, the newly bought Nicholas Pooran, and star allrounders Stoinis and Krunal Pandya, this is probably the most balanced lineup of IPL 2023.
The team comprises many all-rounders, and even as backups for the all-rounder in the playing 11, LSG picked players like Sams, Romario Shepherd and Prerak Mankad who can replace the injured or low-performing players in the playing 11.
The Lucknow Super Giants bought Wood for a whooping price of 7+ crores, but he withdrew his name from IPL 2022 but is looking to make his debut for the LSG this year and is going to be a valuable player in their squad.
