Justin Langer of the Lucknow Super Giants answered the reporter’s mom’s call at 12:08 a.m., which was fun!

Lucknow Super Giants head coach Justin Langer answered the phone after his team beat the Mumbai Indians in the IPL after an unexpected call was received in the post-match press conference.

While answering questions about injured walker Mayank Yadav, Langer noticed the reporter’s phone buzzing on the podium and the “mom” on the screen flashed.

“Who is the MAA?” he asked with a smile, then nodded before answering the call. “Mom, it’s 12:08 am and I’m attending a press conference,” he said, sparking laughter throughout the room.

After LSG successfully defended 204 by limiting MI to 191/5, Lange was clearly feeling cheerful, a strong comeback since their last defeat and a second win in four games.

Langer conquered the team’s losses and responded to earlier comments from team mentor Zaheer Khan, who suggested that the condition does not support LSG’s losses.
“Honestly, both of the courts here have been excellent over the last two years,” he said. “There was a bit of emotion after the last game. But as the head coach, I really enjoyed playing here. It’s nice to have some diversity in terms of conditions. Honestly, the less we talk about the courts, the better.”
