Indian Premier League franchise Lucknow Super Giants revealed their new jersey for the new season of the tournament. The jersey was unveiled in the presence of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Secretary Jay Shah, LSG owner Sanjeev Goenka, and LSG captain KL Rahul. Notably, the new season of the IPL gets underway on 31 March with a match between Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans. Meanwhile, Lucknow will open their campaign against Delhi Capitals on 1 April.
The prominent colour of the jersey is dark blue, with strips of red on each side. This jersey is a striking contrast from its predecessor. LSG will hope that this darker variation brings them the much-needed X factor this season.
Before the LSG jersey became the centre of attraction, a fashion show was hosted just before the unveiling ceremony. To top it off some of the LSG players took part in that show, showcasing their sense of fashion and glamour. Ravi Bishnoi, Jaydev Undakat, Deepak Hooda, Avesh Khan, and finally the LSG skipper KL Rahul walked on the ramp in colours which were similar to the jersey.
After the unveiling ceremony Gautam Gambhir, KL Rahul and Sanjeev Goenka talked about what can be expected from LSG this season. Team mentor Gambhir emphasized the fact that consistency will be the key for LSG. The conditions will be different from last season. Thus, adaptability will play a key role in producing a result in their favour.
