The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 mega auction is just around the corner, and many big names are expected to go under the hammer. One of the big names likely to be up for grabs is the current T20 International captain of the Indian cricket team, Suryakumar Yadav.
While no official confirmation has been made, it is speculated that both Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav will leave Mumbai Indians and will not be a part of IPL 2025 for the franchise. On the other hand, reports suggest that Lucknow Super Giants are in talks with Suryakumar Yadav.
Infact, LSG themselves are considering releasing their captain KL Rahul before the IPL 2025 mega auction, following the team’s underwhelming performance in IPL 2024.
On that note, let’s take a look at the top three reasons why Lucknow Super Giants will acquire Suryakumar Yadav in the IPL 2025 mega auction:
1. Leadership Potential: A Strong Captaincy Contender
While Lucknow Super Giants are already trying to convince Rohit Sharma to join their team and appoint him as captain, in case they fail, Suryakumar Yadav could be their next best choice.
2. Injecting Aggression into Lucknow’s Batting Lineup
As seen in IPL 2024, LSG struggled to put up big scores due to their timid and slow batting approach. Suryakumar Yadav could bring a much-needed change in this department, providing the aggressive batting that the team lacked.
3. A Point to Prove: Suryakumar’s Chance to Shine
When Mumbai Indians appointed Hardik Pandya as captain for IPL 2024, overlooking senior players like Jasprit Bumrah and Suryakumar Yadav, it likely hurt the duo’s feelings. This could motivate Suryakumar to prove his leadership credentials by leading Lucknow Super Giants to success in IPL 2025.
