LSG Seeks Comeback After Punjab Setback

After suffering back-to-back defeats, they made a strong statement with a dominant win over defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders.

Akash Deep is back from injury and likely to replace Avesh Khan. LSG fans hope his return brings pace firepower to a depleted fast-bowling unit.
