Key players of Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2026
aiden markram
South African T20I captain Aiden Markara, who is expected to open the innings for Lucknow Super Giants in the next season of the Indian Premier League, will play a vital role at the top of the order given the amount of experience he has.
Markram, who also had a good 2025 season, will also want good support from other batsmen, especially in the middle order, which was not there last season as most of the runs for LSG were scored by the top three batsmen.
Rishabh Pant
Lucknow Super Giants captain Risha Pant will be looking to get things back on track after a disappointing season as a batsman and a leader.
Having said that, Pant can take confidence from the fact that he scored a century against Gujarat Titans in the second half of the tournament and will hope to build on this by starting the 2026 season on a good note.
Michelle Marsh
The Australia T20I captain, who was one of three batsmen along with Markram and Pooran to score consistently for LSG in the 2025 season, will look to continue the good work next season.
It is important that Marsh scores well while opening the batting as the team depends heavily on him due to his ability to take the game away from the opposition.
Mayank Yadav
For starters, LSG will be hoping that Mayank Yadav remains fit throughout the tournament, as the fast bowler, who will make his IPL debut in 2024, has missed a total of ten matches in the two seasons so far due to injuries.
If he remains fit, Mayank will be an integral part of LSG’s bowling department, as he has the ability to bowl match-winning spells.
Performance of Lucknow Super Giants in IPL
Lucknow Super Giants have participated in four IPL seasons so far, making their debut in 2022, and have had a good run so far, with four playoff appearances in the first two editions.
