Lucknow Super Giants need more bowlers for IPL 2025. Their main fast bowlers are hurt and injured now. This is making the team worry about their bowling attack.
Mohsin Khan is dealing with an injury. Mayank Yadav is also not fully fit. Akash Deep has injury issues too. All three are important fast bowlers for LSG.
The team needs strong bowlers to win matches. Fast bowlers help teams get wickets and stop runs. Without them, LSG might struggle in matches.
Shardul Thakur as a Solution
Shardul Thakur might join LSG this season. He went unsold this year. No one picked him in the mega auction. But now, he has been seen with LSG. He wears their team clothes during practice. He bowls with the LSG players every day.
Thakur has played for India many times. He can both bat and bowl well. This makes him very valuable for any team.
Team Officials Hint at Signing
An LSG team official talked about their plans. They are watching unsold Indian fast bowlers. These players are joining LSG practice sessions.
The official said they might make changes. If any current bowler cannot play, they need replacements. Shardul Thakur could be that replacement.
LSG has not made any big announcements yet. They have not said Thakur will join for sure. But all signs point to this happening soon.
“Shardul Thakur has been part of our camp for a week now. If any fast bowler gets injured, we will include him under IPL rules.”
Thakur is already part of team activities. People are talking about this possible signing. Cricket fans think LSG will confirm it soon.
The Team’s Big Decision
LSG coaches must make a tough choice now. They can wait for their injured bowlers to heal. Or they can bring in Shardul Thakur right away.
Injured players might get better during the season. But the team needs bowlers ready for the first match. They cannot start with a weak bowling attack.
Thakur brings experience to the team. He has played in the IPL for many years. He knows how to handle pressure situations well.
He can also score runs as a batsman. This gives LSG an extra batting option. Good teams need players who can do many things.
The IPL 2025 season starts very soon. LSG must decide quickly. They play their first match next week. Fans will watch closely to see if Thakur wears LSG colors.
Teams can change players before the season starts. The IPL allows this for injured players. LSG might use this rule to bring in Thakur.
Whatever they decide, LSG needs strong bowling. The IPL is a tough competition. Only teams with good bowling win matches regularly.
