A tenure of two months provides a great opportunity for cricketers to interact and team up with players across the world. Notably, the ongoing edition of the IPL has brought some nail-biting thrillers and unique moments of cricket so far.
Lucknow Super Giants’ (LSG) keeper-batter Nicholas Pooran has had an unforgettable season so far. He has played crucial roles in most of LSG’s wins in the ongoing season. He has now exhibited his distinct talent for singing.
