Following Lucknow Super Giants’ devastating 10-wicket loss to Sunrisers Hyderabad in an IPL 2024 showdown, team owner Sanjeev Goenka engaged in a tense exchange with skipper KL Rahul at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium. Despite a formidable total of 165/4, buoyed by Ayush Badoni’s unbeaten 55 and Nicholas Pooran’s impressive 48, LSG stumbled as SRH effortlessly chased down the target in a mere 9.4 overs.
This is just pathetic from @LucknowIPL owner
Never saw SRH management with players on the field or even closer to dressing room irrespective of so many bad seasons and still face lot of wrath for getting involved. Just look at this @klrahul leave this shit next year #SRHvsLSG pic.twitter.com/6NlAvHMCjJ— SRI (@srikant5333) May 8, 2024
SRH’s opening duo, Travis Head (89* off 30 balls) and Abhishek Sharma (75* off 28 balls), spearheaded the onslaught, forging an unbroken 167-run partnership. Yash Thakur bore the brunt of the assault, conceding 47 runs without securing a wicket. A viral video captured Goenka’s evident dissatisfaction with certain decisions made by Rahul on the field during the defense, triggering speculations regarding team dynamics and strategic choices.
