Delhi: Punjab Kings (PBKS) defeated Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by 8 wickets to register their second win in the tournament. In this match, Lucknow captain Rishabh Pant once again flopped and returned to the pavilion after scoring just 2 runs. Meanwhile, the great cricketer Sunil Gavaskar on Live TV gave his opinion about the strategy of Pant and Lucknow.
During the live show, the presenter questioned Gavaskar whether the team is batting aggressively due to lack of good bowlers with Lucknow Super Giants? On this, Gavaskar responded in a funny tone and said, “I wish you had asked this question before me, because I have spent a lot of time with Rishabh Pant. If I had asked Pant this question, perhaps he would probably call it a foolish question.”
Gavaskar further said, “Nicholas Puran and Mitchell Marsh are naturally aggressive batsmen. This is their way to play and it is exciting to see it. Also, Rishabh Pant also comes to bat in the lower order, which strengthens the team. If the team does not have good fast bowlers, the batsmen need to score more, so that the bowlers need to score more, so that the bowlers need to be supported.”
The IPL journey of Lucknow Super Giants so far has not been special. The team has played three matches, winning only one, while in two matches they have suffered defeat. His net run rate is also in minus. The next match of Lucknow will be against Mumbai Indians on 4 April.
