LSG Owner Sanjiv Goenka Praises Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Rajasthan Royals' Retention
Lucknow Super Giants owner Sanjiv Goenka praised 15-year-old cricket talent Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, calling him a generational player and noting that every IPL team owner regrets not having him. Sooryavanshi was acquired by Rajasthan Royals for Rs 1.1 crore at the IPL mega auction in Jeddah, with Lakshmi Mittal holding a 75% stake in the franchise. Goenka believes Mittal will not let Sooryavanshi leave Rajasthan Royals, but if he does, other IPL teams, including LSG, would be eager to sign him.
