Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants are closing in on a major swap deal. This deal is reported to involve three to four players, as it is expected to be announced soon. Moreover, one of LSG’s key bowlers will also be a part of the same.
Lucknow Super Giants had a mixed IPL 2025 season, finishing with 6 wins in 14 matches and missing out on the playoff spots.
The team started well in parts of the tournament but failed to maintain consistency across matches. Batting performances from Rishabh Pant and Nicholas Pooran helped in several games, while bowling struggled in pressure situations.
Lucknow Super Giants have been among the consistent performers in the Indian Premier League, as the team has been to the playoffs in two of the three seasons they have played.
By IPL 2026, LSG is seen as a competitive side with a strong mix of experienced international players and young Indian talent.
Lucknow Super Giants played its first IPL season in 2022 and was able to showcase impressive performances. The team finished in 3rd spot in the league stages, with 9 wins in 14 matches. However, in the Eliminator match, they lost the game against Royal Challengers Bangalore by 14 runs, as Rajat Patidar from RCB smashed a century to help his team win. LSG's run in its first playoffs was short, but the team was able to showcase its dominance. KL Rahul was the top run scorer for the team with 616 runs, and Avesh Khan was the leading wicket-taker with 18 wickets.
Continuing its dominance in the league stages of the Indian Premier League, Lucknow Super Giants was once again able to secure a spot in the tournament playoffs. With 8 wins in 14 matches, the team was able to end up at the 3rd spot once again in the league stages. This time also, LSG lost the Eliminator match against the Mumbai Indians by 81 runs, missing out on their opportunity to reach the finals once again. Marcus Stoinis was the top run scorer for the team with 408 runs, and Ravi Bishnoi was the leading wicket-taker with 16 wickets.
In the IPL 2024 season, Lucknow Super Giants' performance dropped drastically, as it was also the first time the team missed out on the playoffs. With just 7 wins in 14 matches, the team ended up in the league stages at the 7th spot and also had some controversies between its former captain, KL Rahul, and owner Sanjeev Goenka. KL Rahul was once again the top run scorer for the team with 520 runs, and Naveen-ul-Haq was the leading wicket-taker with 14 wickets.
Lucknow Super Giants entered the 2025 season with Rishabh Pant as the new captain. The squad included several new additions, which changed the team combination compared to previous seasons.
The team secured 6 wins in 14 matches and finished outside the playoff positions. There were strong individual performances, but results were inconsistent across the league stage.
The bowling unit had experienced names, but execution in crucial moments affected outcomes. The season showed the need for better balance in both the batting and bowling departments.
Being among the few franchises in the Indian Premier League history to have not won the IPL, Lucknow Super Giants enters the next season with full hopes to secure a win and dominate throughout the season. It was also recently announced that Rishabh Pant is the new captain of the team, who'll also aim to achieve new heights in the IPL. Lucknow IPL team 2025 players list includes various new names this time, who will be a part of the team in the upcoming season, with players like David Miller, Aiden Markram, Akash Deep, and various others joining the team.
After IPL 2025, Lucknow Super Giants moves into the 2026 season with a more settled squad under Rishabh Pant. The batting unit includes players like Pooran, Markram, and Marsh, while young players add depth.
The bowling lineup, led by Mohammed Shami, Mayank Yadav, and Anrich Nortje, gives the team strong pace options.
Lucknow’s chances in IPL 2026 depend on consistent performances across matches and better results in close games. A strong run in the league stage can help the team reach the playoffs and compete for its first IPL title.
