'I Enjoy It Up Top, Will Do Whatever I Can For The Team: Markram On Returning To Opening Role For LSG
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) opener Aiden Markram expressed his satisfaction at returning to the top of the order while reiterating his team-first approach ahead of their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 clash against Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium on Sunday.
After winning the toss, Gujarat asked Lucknow to bat first in the 19th match of the tournament, setting the stage for Markram to build on a modest start to the season. The South African has crossed the 40-run mark just once in three outings so far, with a 45 against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) being his standout effort.
Reflecting on his return to the opening slot, Markram, speaking on the sidelines of the LSG vs GT clash, said, “I do enjoy it up top. Nice to be back there, but you obviously just do whatever you can for the team. If the best balance is not me at the top, I'm also happy with that. But yeah, it's been nice to be back up at the top.”
