Today we’re going to talk about the new IPL team, the Lucknow Super Giants. Before the start of IPL 2022, we want to report on the players who could qualify for the Lucknow Super Giants title in their debut season. So let’s take a look at those 5 players….
These 5 players can win the trophy for Lucknow Super Giants
- Ravi Bishnoi
Ravi Bishnoi along with K Gautam and Shabaz Nadeem will be seen playing the role of the lead spinner in the Lucknow Super Giants team. He has made a tremendous impression with his bowling, due to which he was recently given a chance at the international level by the BCCI selectors against the West Indies.
He won everyone’s heart in his debut international series itself. At the same time, he has 2 years experience in IPL. In 2020 and 2021, Ravi Bishnoi has done many exploits with his ball while staying at Punjab Kings. Responding to Bishnoi balls is nothing less than chewing iron gram. This time he can be seen in a new color with a new team. LSG had roped in Ravi Bishnoi even before the auction.
Ravi Bishnoi has had a wonderful IPL career. He has earned a name on the strength of his bowling in a big tournament like IPL in a very short time. If we take a look at his record of this tournament, then he has taken 24 wickets in 23 innings of IPL, bowling at an average of 25.25. Looking at his exploits, it can be said that this time Bishnoi can play an important role in getting the Giants the first book.
- Marcus Stoinis
Australia’s lethal all-rounder Marcus Stoinis was one of three draft picks for the Lucknow Super Giants. His contribution to Delhi Capitals played a huge role in choosing Lucknow as the draft. However, Marcus Stoinis will not be able to be a part of some of the opening matches of IPL 2022. But, despite this, he will get ample opportunities to prove his ability with bat and ball.
If we talk about Marcus Stoinis’s batting, he has played 49 innings of IPL so far, in which he has scored 914 runs at an average of 27.7. He has hit 76 fours and 35 sixes in IPL so far. At the same time, he has also taken 30 wickets in IPL. LSG had attached Marcus in IPL 2022 by paying a hefty amount of 9.20 crores. In such a situation, he can play his best all-round performance in the victory of the team’s first title.
- Quinton de Kock
Lucknow Super Giants won in a bidding bid with Mumbai Indians in the form of South African wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock. Quinton de Kock’s name is second on this list. It is expected that Quinton de Kock will give a great start to Lucknow along with KL Rahul
He is also in tremendous form these days. Long years of experience in big tournaments like IPL. The special thing is that this pair has the ability to destroy any bowling attack. In such a situation, it would not be wrong to say that Quinton de Kock has the ability to win the trophy for Lucknow Super Giants on the strength of his batting.
Talking about de Kock’s IPL career, he has played 77 matches in this tournament so far. In which he has scored 2256 runs at an average of 31.33. A century has also come from his bat in this innings. His batting strike rate (130.93) in IPL has also been amazing.
- Avesh Khan
Avesh Khan is one of the fast bowlers of Lucknow Super Giants. Due to the smoky bowling of Avesh, LSG can win the title of IPL 2022. Seeing Avesh’s bowling, the legs of the opposing team start trembling. His performance in IPL last year was very good. He had also caught the attention of BCCI this season.
In IPL 2021, he did not give the batsmen of the opposing team a chance to stay ahead of him. Avesh Khan took 24 wickets in IPL 2021 which opened the doors of his international debut. Avesh has played 25 innings of IPL so far, in which he has taken 29 wickets. Lucknow Super Giants had placed a big bet on Avesh Khan by bidding for Rs 10 crore.
- KL Rahul
The first name on the list is KL Rahul, captain of the newly launched Lucknow Super Giants team. KL Rahul has been one of the top-scoring players in the IPL since 2018. He scored more than 2,000 runs for the Punjab Kings during his time at the franchise and is one of India’s best-known cricketers in all formats in the IPL 2022.
KL Rahul, who has been the captain of the Punjab Kings for the past 3 years, has extensive experience as a host. But this time he decided to go to the auction. However, the new franchise had already pledged a sizeable sum of 17 crowns before the auction. In such a situation, this time he will not only be at the head of the team, but also play a special role as a bat.
It will be the franchise’s debut season and it can be seen that KL Rahul has put all his hard work into getting the team to win the title. However, as captain, he did not win a single trophy for Punjab. This time, however, he has the opportunity to prove and help Lucknow win the IPL with the bat. Because this time, not only the team’s stroke order but also the bowling order seems very strong.
