Lucknow Super Giants had a very poor performance in IPL 2024 and the team could not secure its place in the playoffs of this season.
The Lucknow Super Giants franchise organized a press conference on August 28 in which team owner Sanjiv Goenka and new mentor Zaheer Khan were present. During the interaction with the media, both of them made big revelations about the performance of the franchise and the upcoming mega auction.
Let us tell you, the performance of Lucknow Super Giants was very poor in IPL 2024 and the team could not secure its place in the playoffs of this season. Not only this, the performance of the players of the team was very good in the 2022 and 2023 seasons. Now Zaheer Khan will be seen playing an important role in the upcoming season. Along with this, let us tell you about three important points of the franchise’s press conference.
1- Zaheer Khan praises impact player rule
The impact player rule has been implemented for franchises in the Indian Premier League. Some players have not liked this rule at all while others have praised it.
In the press conference of Lucknow Super Giants, Zaheer Khan said, ‘This will give opportunities to many uncapped players. In the mega auction, you will see that the franchise is adding talented uncapped players to their team. Not only this, Indian cricket will also benefit a lot from this. Young players will also be seen leaving their mark.
As far as all-rounders are concerned, at present there is absolutely no place for half all-rounders and the main reason behind this is the impact sub rule. But if you are a great all-rounder then no one can stop you.
