The young Mumbai all-rounder, Suryansh Shedge has been picked up as a replacement for injured Jaydev Unadkat in the Lucknow Super Giants squad for remaining IPL 2023. Jaydev Unadkat got injured two weeks ago while bowling in the LSG nets after falling on the ground during the follow-through of his delivery and has sustained a serious injury. Suryansh joins LSG for INR 20 Lakh as Unadkat's replacement.
