The IPL 2025 mega auction is only days away and the Lucknow Super Giants seem to be in a comfortable position currently. The franchise has a remaining purse of ₹69 crore and 1 ‘right to match’ card, as well. Notably, LSG retention list included 5 players with Nicholas Pooran taking the top retention spot.
As per the reports and the departures from squad, LSG is likely to focus on flexibility. The Lucknow team are expected to bid for a middle-order batsman, death-over specialists, and another all-rounder. Moreover, the team’s tilt is expected to stay with the youth just like it was on their retention list.
