With LSG facing multiple injury concerns ahead of IPL 2025, the 27-year-old got his opportunity to debut in their opening match against Delhi Capitals (DC) in Visakhapatnam.

Despite the start, he bounced back brilliantly against SRH, dismissing Travis Head and running out Heinrich Klaasen, proving his ability.

Meanwhile, LSG prepares for their next match against Punjab Kings (PK) on April 1 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.
