Devdutt Padikkal had a forgettable debut for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the IPL as he fell for a duck against his former team Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur on Sunday. 

The left-hander was hit on the head by a bouncer from Kiwi pacer Trent Boult in LSG's chase of 194. After being attended to by the LSG physio, Devdutt was cleaned up by Boult off the very next ball. He lasted only three balls.

The 23-year-old, who made his Test debut in the fifth match of the recent series against England at Dharamsala, has also played for Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the IPL.
