Jonty Rhodes Praises KL Rahul’s Captaincy, compares his Franchise to Mumbai Indian

Field coach of Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) Jonty Rhodes praised KL Rahul’s captaincy in past three years, even though the team could not make it to the playoffs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.

In between the rumours over Rahul’s retention before mega auctions, Jonty stated that Rahul’s record as captain for the franchise is great.

“I think if you look at a record as a captain of a brand-new franchise, getting into the playoffs every time like he has, it’s been something that goes a long way towards his captaincy, to the way that he leads the team and the sort of set up and the approach that he has,” said Rhodes.

Jonty compared KL Rahul to the likes of great captains such as MS Dhoni. He thinks that LSG is not away from winning a trophy.

“So you know, to look at Rohit’s record as a captain, Dhoni’s record as a captain, the trophies that those guys have won and the consistency that they’ve done to winning trophies, from LSG’s point of view, it might just be one thing getting into the final, winning the trophy,” Rhodes added.
