The Kiwi batter has made 94 runs in three matches so far.
The Ekana Stadium in Lucknow is ready to witness the Indian Premier League (IPL) clash between hosts, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Notably, MS Dhoni confirmed at the coin toss that Devon Conway will not be playing in this match. Instead, the 20-year-old Shaik Rasheed has replaced the Kiwi batter.
The CSK skipper said, “We have a couple of changes. Overton and Rasheed come in for Ashwin and Conway.”
Playing three CSK games so far, Conway has amassed 94 runs. On the other hand, young Rasheed will be making his IPL debut tonight.
The Andhra Pradesh-born Rasheed is a batter, but he can also offer a legbreak style of bowling.
CSK has made another change to their playing XI. They’ve benched legendary spinner Ravichandran Ashwin to include Jamie Overton. Rishabh Pant, on the other hand, has made a change to LSG’s playing XI. Mitchell Marsh had missed the last game due to personal reasons. He will be replacing Himmat Singh today.
Dhoni has won the toss and has decided to take the field first.
