The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) made their debut in the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) and put on an impressive performance in the group stage. Led by KL Rahul, the team achieved nine victories and five losses in 14 games, showcasing their excellent cricketing skills and securing a spot in the playoffs.
Despite their valiant efforts, the franchise’s campaign ultimately ended without a title after they were defeated by the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Eliminator at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
In November 2022, the franchise released names such as Jason Holder, Manish Pandey, Evin Lewis, and Andrew Tye in order to free up some funds. Later, at the mini-auction of 2023, they splurged a whopping INR 16 crore on the West Indian batter Nicholas Pooran to bolster their team.
The Lucknow Super Giants will face off against the Delhi Capitals in their IPL 2023 opener on April 1st in the city of Lucknow. This highly anticipated match promises to be an exciting start to the season, with both teams eager to make a statement and set the tone for the rest of the tournament.
