As the excitement kicks in for the IPL mega auction, there is a lot of chatter on which players the Lucknow Super Giants are eager to elect in the auction.

Ex-IND star Urges LSG To Pick Arshdeep Singh, States Reasons Why He’ll Be A Solid Pick
While speaking about the IPL auction picks for the Lucknow Super Giants, Robin Uthappa suggested that the franchise management should go all in to bring in India star, Arshdeep Singh. He opined that the left-arm bowler could thrive in the Lucknow tracks since it has a bit of bounce and also a little movement. Uthappa also stated that Arshdeep would thrive in normal conditions, which could be a huge benefit for the franchise as they undergo a revamp.
“I would go for Stonis as the RTM. I would actually go hard for Arshdeep because it’s a venue he will also enjoy bowling in. It’s a big venue, so fast bowlers like these venues. It has a little bit of bounce. It has a little bit of movement and the sizes are pretty big. He thrives under normal conditions anyway. I think he will thrive here a lot,” Robin Uthappa stated.

Robin Uthappa also stated that the franchise may opt for Nicholas Pooran as the skipper after KL Rahul was let go. But he also pointed out that if the team brings in an Australian star, who could fit under head coach Justin Langer’s system. He also picked a couple of choices which the franchise may select in the mega auction.
“I would go back to QDK (Quinton de Kock). That had Kyle Mayers as well. He is a good pick as well. He is a foreign opener. Will Jacks could be a fit here. We saw him taking Rashid Khan to town. Conway plays spin well, so he could do well at Lucknow but I would keep Devon Conway’s RTM at CSK (Chennai Super Kings) itself,” the former India star said.
