"LSG Playoff Heartache: Rahul Reveals All!"
Rahul on LSG missing the playoffs: "Injuries and the guys that went away really dented us." Dive deep into the heart of the matter as Rahul shares his candid thoughts on LSG's shocking playoff exit.
Rahul and Langer Reflect on Lucknow Super Giants' Season
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) missed the playoffs, with captain KL Rahul highlighting injuries and departures as setbacks. Despite finishing level with Chennai Super Kings, they fell short due to a negative net run rate. Rahul expressed disappointment, citing inconsistency in performance throughout the season.
LSG experimented in their final game, opening with Devdutt Padikkal, but it didn't yield desired results. Nicholas Pooran's explosive innings and Rahul's fifty propelled them to 214. However, their reputation for defending totals faltered in the latter part of the tournament due to bowling injuries.
Rahul acknowledged the team's capability
Despite Mumbai Indians' strong start, LSG's bowlers rallied to restrict them. Coach Justin Langer lamented missed opportunities in earlier games due to dropped catches, which proved costly in the season's outcome.
However, LSG's improved fielding against MI showcased their potential. Rahul acknowledged the team's capability but regretted not displaying it consistently throughout the season.
