Paddikal's LSG debut, first RR game for Avesh?
It is noteworthy that the Royals and Super Giants engaged in a trade, where left hand batsman Devdutt Paddikal left RR and went to LSG in return of quicky Avesh Khan moving from LSG to RR. Both these players are expected to make their debuts in the first game in their new IPL teams.
As for the injuries, Rajasthan Royals are having to deal with the injury to Prasidh Krishna while Australian leg spinner Adam Zampa has opted out of the tournament. For Lucknow Super Giants, KL Rahul will, in all likelihood, be seen in a new role, batting in the middle order.
