Virat Kohli,
gautam Gambhir, and Naveen-ul-Haq all received significant fines after
monday night's defeat against
royal challengers Bangalore by
lucknow Super Giants. But more importantly for LSG, KL
rahul suffered a hip flexor injury while fielding and left the game after the second over.
As soon as possible before their
wednesday match against
chennai Super Kings, LSG would want to put all of that behind them. The same side scored 257 runs in Mohali less than a week ago, but on
monday, they appeared toothless in their batting, with the majority of their batsmen being dismissed while attempting to attack a slow surface at the Ekana Stadium. After a nervous defeat against
punjab Kings, the
chennai team is likely to miss
ms dhoni in today's match.
The extent of Rahul's injuries is not yet known. Although he was batting against RCB at No. 11, he was unable to run between the wickets. Will
quinton de kock finally have a chance if he is indeed dismissed from the game? One of their choices, if they decide to insert de Kock, is to bench Naveen-ul-Haq and insert Avesh Khan. But in that case, the bowling attack is entirely Indian. Ayush Badoni could be instructed to emphasise the instruction. Additionally,
deepak Hooda, Manan Vohra, Prerak Mankad, Marcus Stoinis, etc. There are several options there.
