IPL 2023: 5 LSG Players Who Will Play All The Matches Of The Season. After having a respectable season in the last edition of the prestigious competition, the Lucknow Super Giants team made their second appearance in the IPL 2023 auction this year.

LSG already appears to have strengthened their squad by adding players like Nicholas Pooran (INR 16 crore) and Daniel Sams (INR 75 lakh) at IPL 2023 auction.

IPL 2023: 5 LSG Players Who Will Play All The Matches Of The Season

Quinton de Kock

Quinton de Kock also had a formidable IPL 2022 season with KL Rahul at the top. The Proteas ace recorded his highest IPL score (140*) as well during their final group match against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).

LSG bought him for INR 6.75 Crore in the TATA IPL 2022 auction and he will open again in IPL 2023. He scored 508 runs in 15 games averaging 36.29 at a strike rate of 148.97 in IPL 2022 with 1 ton and 3 fifties. He will open and probably play all IPL 2023 matches.

KL Rahul

KL Rahul was the leading run-scorer for the Lucknow Super Giants franchise last season and was in contention for the Orange Cap as well, having recorded in excess of 600 runs in a season for the fourth time in succession.

The LSG skipper managed 616 runs in IPL 2022 averaging 51.33 with 2 tons and 4 fifties. He will open and probably play all IPL 2023 matches being the skipper unless he’s injured.

Deepak Hooda

Deepak Hooda’s rise as a batter was one of the biggest takeaways from the last IPL 2022 edition. He made the most of his promotion by the management and scored 451 runs at a strike rate of 136 in 15 games.

It is yet to be seen whether the addition of new players changes his batting position, but his presence in the playing XI is an absolute certainty. Deepak Hooda, who recently made his Team India debut, joined LSG for INR 5.75 Crore. He will probably play all IPL 2023 matches.

Avesh Khan

LSG pacer Avesh Khan donned the LSG colors after being bought for INR 10 Crore. After a successful IPL 2021 for Delhi Capitals where he picked 24 scalps in 16 games averaging 18.75, he picked 18 scalps in 13 IPL 2022 games averaging 23.11. He also made his Team India debut but wasn’t that successful. He will probably play all IPL 2023 matches

Ravi Bishnoi

Ravi Bishnoi, the Indian leg spinner, picked 13 scalps in 14 games in IPL 2022. Ravi Bishnoi was one of the draft picks for Lucknow Super Giants before IPL 2022 mega auctions. He had picked 13 scalps in 14 games in IPL 2022 averaging 35.08 at an economy rate of 8.44.

In IPL, he has 37 scalps from as many games averaging 28.7 playing for Punjab Kings and Lucknow. He will represent LSG again in IPL 2023 and will play all matches.
