Only a few hours left for us to begin our IPL 2023 journey and we can't wait when we face off against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow.
New colours, same grit and determination. TATA IPL is back home and we can’t wait to don our new colours and entertain the fans after a 4-year wait!
Head Coach Ricky Ponting had a message for our troops and our fans as we look to add another milestone to our TATA IPL journey.
Preparations in Tow:
Our boys have put in the hard yards and will be raring to kick-start their campaign on a good note when they play the Lucknow Super Giants in Lucknow.
History will be written as we look forward to becoming the SuperGaints' first-ever opponents at the Ekana Stadium.
Star Players:
David Warner:
Amassing 432 runs in 12 innings, skipper Warner was our top-scorer last season and will be looking to continue his fine run of form this season. He is also the third-highest run-scorer of the tournament with 5881 runs from 162 innings.
One of the most successful captains of the tournament, our skipper for this season has a knack for performing better when sitting at the helm. All said and done he had some words for Rishabh Pant after being announced as the skipper
Axar Patel:
Fondly known as ‘Bapu’, Axar Patel is one of the nine spinners to scalp 100+ IPL wickets. Of his 101 wickets in the tournament, 40 have come in DC colours. A hard hitter down the order we will be expecting him to finish the game with the bat if needed.
Having donned the vice-captain’s cap this season, he had a heartfelt message for his close friend RP17 before the season kicked off.
Prithvi Shaw:
We have always been in awe of this charismatic player in full flow. Our kohinoor had a stellar Ranji run before the season and we will be looking forward to him continuing his stellar form in TATA IPL 2023.
Looking at how he is knocking the ball in the nets we are confident of some fireworks when he takes the field against Lucknow.
Mitch Marsh:
A hard-hitting batter and a more than handy bowler, the BISON has roared many times last season but we are always left wanting for more.
Mitchell Marsh is coming off a stellar run although against India, we are waiting for him to replicate this form in our colours.
Touchdown Lucknow:
Hum aa agaye hai Lucknow,Swagat toh dhoom dhaam se hoga .
