In the first match of their IPL 2022 campaign, the Lucknow SuperGiants will face the Gujrat Titans, who will make their IPL debut at Wankhede Stadium on March 28 (Monday). The franchise retained the likes of KL Rahul (INR 17 crore), Marcus Stonis (INR 9.2 crore), and Ravi Bishnoi (INR 4 crore) and it turned out to be a huge bonus as they sorted out the captaincy, all-rounder, and a wrist spinner. The franchise also named two-time IPL winner Gautam Gambhir as their mentor.
It also picked up some highly-regarded foreign players such as Quinton de Kock, Jason Holder, Dushmantha Chameera, Kyle Mayers, and Evin Lewis during the IPL mega auction. The franchise purchased 21 players in total during the auction.
In Indian players, LSG bagged Manish Pandey, Krunal Pandya, Krishnappa Gowtham, and pacer Avesh Khan who was the side’s most expensive player in the auction for INR 10 crore. Under the captaincy of skipper KL Rahul, the new franchise will look to provide their best as they already have a number of key batters and all-rounders. It remains to be seen how Lucknow will be able to make a mark in their debut season of IPL.
