The
Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 will soon begin, with
Gujarat Titans (GT) taking on
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the tournament opener. Ahead of the cash-rich league, the
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) have launched a brand new kit for the 16th season. Notably, LSG was introduced as one of the two new franchises alongside
Gujarat Titans (GG) in the 2022 edition of the lucrative league.
The Super Giants have completely changed the colour of their kit and will be seen playing the 2023 season of the league in almost a brand-new avatar. The
KL Rahul-led franchise wore a greenish-blue colour in 2022, and now they have gone to a dark blue shade.

The BCCI Secretary
Jay Shah, LSG owner
Sanjeev Goenka, captain Rahul and team mentor
Gautam Gambhir were all present at the event where the franchise unveiled their new jersey. The Lucknow-based franchise also hosted a fashion show which was attended by cricketers such as
Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Jaydev Undakat and
Deepak Hooda.
The Super Giants had an impressive debut last year as they reached the playoffs. LSG finished third in the points table and did well under Rahul’s leadership, winning nine of 17 games. They were beaten by
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in a high-scoring eliminator clash at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens.
