LSG bowler M Siddharth had a dream come true moment as he got rid of Virat Kohli in the game against RCB in Bengaluru. In a dressing room video shared by LSG on X, head coach Justin Langer recalls how he asked the youngster if he could get the ex-RCB skipper out. At that time, Siddarth confidently answered ‘yes sir’.
Dream come true for Siddharth ft. Virat Kohli
The 25-year-old left-arm spinner sent shivers down the spine of cricketing royalty Virat Kohli, dismissing him for his maiden IPL wicket in a dream debut for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in IPL 2024.
Bidding War and Dream Debut for M Siddharth
Both Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore recognized Siddharth’s potential, leading to a bidding war. LSG eventually secured his services for a whopping INR 2.4 crore, showcasing their faith in the young spinner.
