1. Avesh Khan
Avesh Khan was an expensive buy at the auctions from LSG. The right-arm pacer was bought for a huge price of INR 10 crores. For the amount he got, he proved to be not-so-good for LSG. With the ball, Avesh conceded a lot of runs despite bowling mostly in the bowler-friendly conditions of Lucknow. Avesh went for runs in all the phases of the game. Some of the youngsters in the team like Yash Thakur bowled better than him.
The issue with Avesh is his price tag. He has not been able to live up to the expectations. Ahead of the IPL 2024, he might be released by LSG. In auctions, Avesh might be available at a lower price, in case LSG opt to buy him back. Either way, releasing him would be a good idea from the perspective of LSG. With that, LSG would get a purse deficit of INR 10 crores, which would be helpful for them to look for other options.
