Just like they did last year, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are set to dawn the colours of Indian football club Mohun Bagan Super Giants for their game against Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday, April 14 at the historic Eden Gardens
The jersey is predominantly maroon in colour, with stripes of green on either side in front. The maroon colour is Mohun Bagan’s primary kit colour.
The franchise confirmed the decision to wear the kit this season via a post on X that said “New colours for a big game.”
“It is (Mohun Bagan) not an institution, it’s actually an emotion. It’s legacy represents the city of Kolkata,” LSG team owner Shashwat Goenka said when LSG wore similar colours as a tribute to Mohun Bagan in the previous season.
“It is with this in mind, that we have decided that LSG will don the iconic colours of maroon and green in Saturday’s match against KKR at Eden Gardens. It is our way of paying respect to the legacy of Mohun Bagan and to the legacy of our city.
“Not just Mohun Bagan fans, but hope all the residents of Kolkata will support us. For us, Kolkata is our home right. So, as much support as we can get, that’s what we would ask for,” Goenka had added.
New colours for a big game! 💚♥️

Why are LSG wearing Mohun Bagan’s colours?
LSG owner and Kolkata-based businessman Sanjiv Goenka bought an 80 per cent share in the football section of Mohun Bagan in 2020 and rebranded the team as ATK Mohun Bagan ahead of the 2020/21 Indian Super League (ISL) season. Further rebranding it as the Mohun Bagan Super Giants last year.
Mohun Bagan would also be playing an important game against Mumbai City FC, wherein they must win in order to finish at the top and win the ISL shield.
In honour of the 134-year-old club, LSG are set to don their iconic Green and Maroon colours for their final IPL 2023 league stage game against KKR.
