Former South African cricketers Morne Morkel and Jonty Rhodes add international flavor to the coaching staff. Their vast experience in both batting and fielding will be invaluable to LSG.
Vijay Dahiya and Pravin Tambe, both seasoned IPL veterans, bring their expertise to the team. Their knowledge of the Indian T20 landscape will aid LSG in making informed decisions. Sriram’s coaching track record includes guiding the Australian men’s team to victory in the T20 World Cup and the Ashes during the 2021-22 season. He has also contributed significantly to the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL.
Despite the challenges, LSG managed to reach the IPL playoffs in the previous season, showcasing their potential. With this formidable coaching lineup, they aim to go all the way and clinch the IPL trophy. While Gambhir’s return as LSG’s Global Mentor is a reason for celebration, controversies have followed him in recent times.
