With the IPL 2025 mega auction just around the corner, franchises are busy finalizing their strategies for player retention and releases. All teams are expected to submit their lists by the end of October, intensifying discussions around player movements and plans.
One of the major surprises from Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) is their decision not to retain KL Rahul. The Indian wicket-keeper batter has led the franchise for the past three seasons, but it appears that LSG is heading in a new direction for IPL 2025.
Focus on Nicholas Pooran and Mayank Yadav
According to a report by Dainik Jagran, LSG’s top retention priorities include West Indies all-rounder Nicholas Pooran and fast bowler Mayank Yadav. Pooran’s dynamic performances with the bat and his ability to contribute with the gloves make him a vital part of the team’s future plans. On the other hand, Mayank Yadav has quickly made a mark with his impressive pace, becoming a dependable option for the team in a short span.
Possibility of Using RTM for Rahul
Although KL Rahul will not continue as the team captain, reports suggest that LSG may still consider bringing him back using the Right to Match (RTM) card during the mega option. However, if the management decides otherwise, the team will begin the new season with a fresh leader at the helm.
