Lucknow Super Giants Team Players List, Squad for IPL 2026: Check out LSG's team list for the 2026 season.
LSG Team 2026 Players List: Although Lucknow Super Giants started the 2025 campaign well, they lost their bearings halfway through the season. Rishabh Pant’s form was a major concern for the franchise alongside their bowling returns.

As per their retentions the franchise released Ravi Bishnoi after having placed a lot of faith in retaining him before the mega auction, with the spinner being let go after a less than impressive season to go with the rise of Digvesh Rathi. LSG have also let go of David Miller and Akash Deep while retaining most of their core.
Lucknow have been active ahead of the retention deadline. They have conducted three separate all-cash deals in an attempt to revamp their squad and free up purse value for the upcoming auction. The franchise traded pace-bowling all-rounder Shardul Thakur to the Mumbai Indians for Rs. 2 crore.
