“This is a fantastic pitch; if you get in, you can score freely.” I simply backed up my abilities and qualities. I believe he is a self-assured individual. In the nets, I spotted him (Badoni).

Evin Lewis (55* off 23) and Ayush Badoni (19* off 9) teamed to pound CSK bowler Shivam Dube for 25 runs in the last over with 34 needed off 12 balls. Lewis also smashed a six in the final over as LSG finished with three balls to spare.

When asked if he received any messages from captain KL Rahul or mentor Gautam Gambhir before walking out to bat, the teenager stated it was simply about playing his natural game. He went on to say:

“They just told me to play my natural game since I know what I’m doing.” They realized that if Evin (Lewis) and I were successful in hitting the big shots, we could win. As a result, no such communication was sent. It was just a matter of playing our shots, which we did brilliantly.”

Ayush Badoni had impressed in LSG’s first encounter against the Gujarat Titans (GT), contributing 54 in 41 balls before his cameo against CSK.

Ayush Badoni has been a fantastic find for Lucknow, making a half-century in the opening match of the season and then an unbeaten 19 off 9 balls in the successful chase against CSK to lead his club to a six-wicket victory.
