LSG Made A Huge Mistake Of Sending Nicholas Pooran In The Super Over: Dasgupta
Lucknow Super Giants: Former India wicketkeeper-batter Deep Dasgupta has raised questions over Lucknow Super Giants’ tactical calls in their Super Over defeat to Kolkata Knight Riders, stating that sending out-of-form Nicholas Pooran to bat in the Super Over ahead of Mitchell Marsh was a ‘huge mistake.’
Analysing LSG’s narrow loss in Lucknow, Dasgupta pointed to both execution and decision-making lapses, particularly in the Super Over, where the team faltered under pressure despite having a strong batting line-up.
“LSG had two back-to-back games, one against RR and one against KKR, where they should have won. I understand that against Kolkata, it wasn’t an easy pitch to bat on, but you would expect them to chase 155 comfortably. Not being able to chase with that kind of batting order is not good for the morale of their dressing room,” Dasgupta told JioStar.
