LSG’s Akash Deep fit to play
LSG fast bowler Akash Deep has declared himself fully fit and ready to make his much-anticipated return to the team following a recovery from a back injury. His absence had been keenly felt by his team, as they are already having a depleted bowling attack. He is now set to join the LSG’s lineup, adding a significant boost to their bowling arsenal.
“I am 100% fit and ready to play. I have played one practice match, but in cricket, when you get a two- to three-month gap, no matter how much you practice, till you don't play a match, the confidence does not build. I feel the first match is very important for me,” he said while addressing the press.
Deep’s injury, which he picked up during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, has kept him sidelined for several weeks. However, his return is a big boost for LSG, who have endured a torrid start to their IPL 2025 campaign. LSG are set to play their upcoming match against Mumbai Indians on Friday in Lucknow.
