Zee News
KL Rahul, Deepak Hood smashed a fifty each, while Avesh Khan picked up four big wickets for only 24 runs to help LSG beat SRH by 12 runs.
Lucknow Super Giants paid 25 times more than his base price of Rs 20 lakh to get Avesh Khan's services in IPL-15. The move was worth it as his excellent bowling acted as the catalyst for his team's 12-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad at DY Patil Stadium on Monday (March 4).
Heading into the lucrative T20 league as the most expensive uncapped Indian player, Avesh picked up four big wickets for only 24 runs and bowled a brilliant 18th over to turn the match decisively in LSG's favour.
Asked to bat first, skipper KL Rahul and Deepak Hooda struck useful half-centuries to lift Lucknow Super Giants to 169 for seven after a disastrous start.
The Super Giants dug deep and fought through out the match to turn around the fixture in their favour.
An overall power packed performance from the boys. Up and onwards to the next fixture!#AbApniBaariHai #bhaukaalmachadenge#IPL2022 #LucknowSuperGiants #T20 #TataIPL #Lucknow pic.twitter.com/IggyUsCQGJ
