There’s pressure on us now: LSG’s Rahul

KL Rahul

Lucknow Super Giants skipper KL Rahul wants his top-order batters to up their game following their second consecutive loss in the Indian Premier League.

The 24-run loss to Rajasthan Royals on Sunday was LSG's first back-to-back defeat in the competition, denting their chances of finishing in the top-two.

They need to win their remaining game against Kolkata Knight Riders on Wednesday to finish in the top-two and get two shots at reaching the final. "I won't lie, yes, there is a bit of pressure now. We all know in this competition nothing comes easy and no point comes easy, and we've had to learn that the hard way," Rahul said at the post-match press conference.
