Lucknow Super Giants Full Squad: Complete List Of LSG Players After IPL Auction 2023

Daniel Sams (Rs 75 lakh) and Nicholas Pooran (Rs 16 crore) were two of the Lucknow Supergiants' most expensive purchases.

In their first Indian Premier League debut, Lucknow Supergiants made it to the play-offs, but the 2023 campaign would be more challenging for them. Mohsin Khan, a left-handed speedster who underwent elbow surgery and whose recovery will be challenging, is still unknown to the team. However, choosing Nicholas Pooran as a finisher instead of any of the all-rounders is as perplexing as it gets. Their most expensive purchases were Daniel Sams ($75,000) and Pooran ($16 crore).

He needs to deliver more consistent performances for that kind of money, according to Scott Styris, one of Jio Cinema's experts. With Quinton de Kock in the starting lineup, it will be interesting to see who dons the big gloves. The LSG franchise Pooran appears to be the worst investment among those with affordable prices.

He scored 85 runs in 11 innings in 2021, and in 2022 it was better with 306 runs from 13 hits at a 144 strike rate, although Sunil Narayana only had two fifty-plus hits.
