"New colours, same commitment" - LSG captain KL Rahul sweats it out in the nets ahead of IPL 2022
The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are toiling hard in their pre-season camp for the highly-anticipated 15th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2022). The IPL team's skipper KL Rahul was also recently seen hitting the nets ahead of this year's cash-rich league.
Rahul took to social media earlier today (March 20) to post pictures from his practice session. The Lucknow-based franchise also shared a video in which Rahul could be seen playing a delightful square cut.
LSG posted on Instagram:
"Sneak peek: Captain @rahulkl 😎 #AbApniBaariHai #LucknowSuperGiants #TataIPL #IPL2022 #IndianPremierLeague #KLRahul."
"New colours, same commitment 🎯."
The 29-year-old parted ways with the Punjab Kings prior to last month's IPL 2022 auction. The Super Giants roped in the star batter for a whopping ₹17 crore ahead of the mega auction.
Rahul has emerged as one of the top performers in the T20 competition. He has 3273 runs to his name from 94 matches at a fantastic average of 47.43. It is worth noting that with 626 runs from 13 games, he finished as the third-highest run-getter in the previous season.
