LSG vs CSK: Watch - Mohsin Khan castles Rachin Ravindra for golden duck with a beauty

Rachin Ravindra once again failed to score big in the ongoing Indian Premier League 2024 as he was dismissed cheaply in the ongoing game between Lucknow Super Giants and Chennai Super Kings in Lucknow.

The New Zealand star earned his maiden IPL contract from Chennai Super Kings for the ongoing season. With his compatriot Devon Conway sidelined with an injury, Rachin Ravindra got the chance to open the innings for CSK from the very first game.

He started his campaign in IPL 2024 on a promising note by playing quickfire knocks of 37 and 46 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans respectively. However, he has not really managed to impress with the bat since then. Those two knocks were followed by knocks of 2, 12, 15 and 21. 

And in the ongoing game against Lucknow Super Giants, Rachin Ravindra could not even open his account as Mohsin Khan dismissed him for a golden duck with a beauty. The left-handed batsman was on the strike for the first ball of the second over bowled by Mohsin Khan. 

The LSG pacer bowled a full-length delivery that was angled in and came back in at the last moment. Rachin Ravindra wanted to drive the ball but was beaten on all ends due to the last-moment movement of the ball. The ball went on to crash into the stumps.

Talking about the game, CSK were on 13 for 1 in the third over at the time of writing this report. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ajinkya Rahane were batting in the middle for the reigning champions. Earlier, LSG skipper KL Rahul won the toss and opted to bowl first. 

"We'll bowl first. Looks like a good wicket, dew hasn't been a big factor. Hopefully it stays good for 40 overs. We would like to know what we are chasing. There weren't any blunders we made. Last game against KKR was a big defeat. Still pretty relaxed. I know it's halfway mark. As a leadership group, if we panic it spreads. That's not what I like to be. Great support staff," said Rahul.
