Zaheer Khan on Lucknow Super GINTS Playing Xi: Just a few days away from the start of the 2025 Indian Premier League season, Lucknow Super Giants has a difficult situation, as many players have been injured due to injury to their frontline pace attack. Mentor Zaheer Khan claimed that in view of the dynamic atmosphere of the league, every team will have to be ready for such uncertainties. Under the captaincy of Rishabh Pant, the Lucknow team will start their campaign at ACAVDCA Cricket Stadium on March 24 and there is still doubt on the return deadline of Mayank Yadav, Akash Deep, Mohsin Khan and Aesh Khan.
Zaheer Khan spoke on the players’ injury
Zaheer said in a press conference, “We cannot really say much because our players are currently in NCA. We are working with them how things go ahead. The situation is dynamic and when you talk about IPL, you should be ready for uncertainties. We have to plan for the season with 24 players, we have to keep such a playing XI and win our wishes. There is a positive unit and you will get to see a positive attitude. “
Mayank expected to return early
The biggest disadvantage for the bowling unit is that fast bowler Mayank, who started bowling in the nets on Monday, as LSG is awaiting fitness approval from BCCI. The fast bowler is recovering from Stress Injury at the Center of Excellence in Bangalore, where he is passing through the rehab after being injured in the T20 series against Bangladesh in the last October after his debut for India. According to earlier reports, the fast bowler is likely to be out of the first half of IPL 2025, but recent developments have hoped for Lucknow to return to his early return.
‘Injuries should be controlled’
The 22 -year -old player impressed everyone at his speed of more than 150 kilometers per hour in his first IPL season last year. He played just four matches and took seven wickets before being out of the tournament due to injury. He also won the player of the match title twice in four matches.
With its extremely weak bowling attack, it is expected that the Lucknow -based franchise will try to meet this deficiency as soon as possible so that the start of the season does not deteriorate due to injuries. Amid uncertainty, Shardul Thakur and Shivam Mavi were seen bowling on the LSG nets.
He said, “There can be not only one way for every situation. Injuries should be controlled. We are not talking about injuries. Our priority is good cricket, we have a good captain, our team is good. Rishabh Pant is a good player.”
