The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are gearing up for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season with a renewed determination to capture the coveted title. The team has undergone significant changes, including the appointment of legendary pacer Zaheer Khan as a mentor.
LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka emphasized the importance of having an Indian mind in the support staff to maximize the potential of the players. He believes that Zaheer’s unwavering desire to win and his experience as a player will be invaluable assets to the team.
Goenka expressed dissatisfaction with the team’s performance in the previous season, citing a lack of experienced decision-making. He believes that Zaheer’s role will be crucial in addressing this issue and guiding the team towards success.
Goenka also highlighted the importance of experience in the team, drawing lessons from the Rising Pune Supergiants’ journey to the IPL final in 2017. He believes that the team’s lack of experience at the time ultimately cost them the title.
With Zaheer’s addition to the support staff, LSG aims to create a balanced team with a blend of experience and youthful exuberance. The team is confident that these changes will propel them towards their ultimate goal of winning the IPL championship.
