Langer's Competitive Fire Burns Bright in Push-Up Challenge with LSG Pacer

Justin Langer's Competitive Spirit Shines in Push-Up Challenge with Lucknow Super Giants Pacer

At 53 years old, Lucknow Super Giants head coach Justin Langer proved that age is just a number when he engaged in a push-up challenge with his 24-year-old pacer, Naveen-ul-Haq. During a training session ahead of their clash against Kolkata Knight Riders, Langer showcased his unwavering competitive spirit and desire to win.

In a video shared by the franchise on social media, Langer and Naveen were seen in an intense push-up battle. Despite being less than half of Langer's age, Naveen struggled to keep up with his head coach's relentless pace. Langer emerged as the clear winner, demonstrating his exceptional fitness and determination.

Langer's competitive nature has been evident throughout his first season as head coach of LSG. Under his guidance, the team has secured a top-four position in the IPL points table with six wins and four losses. However, the likes of Sunrisers Hyderabad, Chennai Super Kings, and Delhi Capitals are hot on their heels as the season approaches its climax.

In the past two editions of the IPL, LSG has reached the play-offs but failed to advance to the finals. Langer's experience and leadership will be crucial as the team aims to break this trend and make a deep run in the tournament.
