After the defeat against KKR, Rahul told how LSG will enter the playoffs
- Lucknow Super Giants lost to Kolkata
- KL Rahul said that the team's performance was not as expected
- We could not execute our strategy.
Lucknow Super Giants, captained by KL Rahul, is playing the third season of IPL. When the team played its first season in the year 2022, it managed to reach the playoffs, the same happened in the year 2023 also. But this time the path seems a little difficult. LSG suffered a big and embarrassing defeat against KKR. This has dealt a big blow to its playoff hopes. Meanwhile, after losing the match, KL Rahul's pain came to the fore. He told where the team went wrong and how they can now reach the top 4.
The team did not perform well
After losing the match against Kolkata Knight Riders, Lucknow Supergiants captain KL Rahul said that his team's performance was not as per expectations. Rahul said after the match that we had a big target in front of us. The team performed very poorly with bat, ball and fielding. Our performance was not as per expectations. He said that the wicket was good, the pitch was not that bad. But the target was 20-30 runs more. Our batting was very bad. We could not execute our strategy.
Now LSG team will not play on home ground
The problem for LSG is that the team has played all the matches at home, now it has to play one match at the home of the opposing team. The team will now play three more matches in the league stage. LSG captain KL Rahul said that now his team will have to win the remaining three matches to go to the playoffs from here. Also we have to bat fearlessly.
Schedule of remaining matches of LSG
The LSG team will now play its next match against Sunrisers Hyderabad on May 8 at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium. On May 14, the team will be seen playing against Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The team's last match will be against Mumbai at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on 17th May. That means no match is light or easy. In such a situation, their hopes of going to the playoffs may get a setback. It remains to be seen how the team recovers from this.
