Team overview
Lucknow Super Giants at a glance
Lucknow Super Giants is a Lucknow-based men's Twenty20 franchise owned by RPSG Sports Private Limited. The team joined the Indian Premier League in 2022 and reached the playoffs in each of its first two seasons.
LSG finished tenth in IPL 2026 with four wins and ten losses from 14 matches, eight points and a net run rate of -0.740. Mitchell Marsh led the batting with 563 runs, while Prince Yadav topped the bowling list with 16 wickets.
Rishabh Pant captained LSG during IPL 2026, then stepped down on 29 May. The franchise announced on 23 June that Pant had moved to Delhi Capitals and Kuldeep Yadav had joined LSG; the next captain had not been announced by this page's 13 August check.
Who is LSG captain after Rishabh Pant's departure?
LSG had not announced its next captain by the 13 August 2026 check. Rishabh Pant captained the completed IPL 2026 season, stepped down on 29 May and moved to Delhi Capitals in the 23 June trade.
These are three different time states: season captain, immediate post-season vacancy and current roster. Carrying Pant forward as current captain would be stale; guessing a successor would be unsupported.
Why did LSG finish tenth when Mumbai Indians also had eight points?
Net run rate separated the two 4-10 teams. Mumbai ranked ninth at -0.584, while Lucknow's lower -0.740 placed LSG tenth.
This was a genuine NRR tiebreak because both teams had the same points and win-loss record. It decided ninth versus tenth, not a playoff place.
Was Ekana a home advantage for Lucknow in IPL 2026?
Not by the win-loss split. LSG went 2-5 across seven matches at Ekana and also went 2-5 in seven away fixtures.
The home wins came against Bengaluru under the DLS method and Chennai in a seven-wicket chase. Five other visitors won in Lucknow, so the venue did not improve LSG's season conversion rate.
Did LSG's Super Over loss count as a no-result?
No. LSG and KKR tied on 155, but Kolkata won the Super Over, so the match counts as a Lucknow loss. LSG's rain-affected DLS win over Bengaluru also counts as a completed win.
A tied regulation score, a weather-adjusted target and an abandoned match are separate result states. Lucknow had no no-results in 2026: all 14 fixtures ended as four wins or ten losses.
Can Kuldeep Yadav's current LSG listing be used for 2026 team stats?
No. Kuldeep joined LSG on 23 June, after the IPL 2026 campaign ended, so his earlier Delhi performances do not become Lucknow statistics. The current directory and completed-season appearance record must stay separate.
The same boundary works in reverse for Rishabh Pant: he belongs in LSG's 2026 captaincy and season record but not in the current post-trade squad. Current team pages often fail when they treat a roster as timeless.
