IPL 2025: KL Rahul and other Key players Lucknow Super Giants Might Regret Not Signing
The Lucknow Super Giants couldn't make it to the IPL 2024 IPL playoffs. After reaching the top four in their first two seasons, they failed to do so last year. Despite staying in contention until the end, they couldn't take advantage of the opportunities to secure a playoff spot.
The Lucknow Super Giants are preparing for a fresh start in the next season. With KL Rahul no longer part of the team, a new captain will lead them. The squad will include players like Rishabh Pant, Nicholas Pooran, Ravi Bishnoi, Mayank Yadav, David Miller, and Mitchell Starc for the upcoming season.
The cricketing world was surprised when the Lucknow Super Giants decided not to keep KL Rahul as their captain. Rahul has been one of the top batsmen in the IPL in recent years and many expected him to stay. However, the team not only released him but also chose not to bid for him in the auction.
