NEW DELHI: Former Australia skipper Aaron Finch believes the opening pair of captain KL Rahul and wicketkeeper-batter Quinton de Kock are the biggest strengths while Deepak Hooda will be the X-factor of Lucknow Super Giants in the upcoming 2023 season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Last year's debutants, LSG, led by Rahul, finished third in the league stage with nine wins and five defeats. LSG knocked out of the competition after losing to Royal Challengers Bangalore in the eliminator at Kolkata.
