Full List of Indian Players LSG Will Release Ahead Of IPL 2025 Mega Auction

LSG finished seventh in IPL 2024 after making it to the playoffs back-to-back in IPL 2022 and IPL 2023. They won seven matches and lost seven in what was an overall disappointing season for the franchise.

Heading into the IPL 2025 mega auction, there are reports of big changes happening within the squad. Justin Langer who was roped in as the head coach of the franchise after Gautam Gambhir's departure could not quite bring out the same performance from the side.

Though KL Rahul scored runs, overall, the rest of the players could not follow and back him up. Apart from Rahul, the side lacks a quality international cricketer from India which is a loophole the management would love to plug heading into the next mega auction.

The picture of the LSG owner Sanjeev Goenka and KL Rahul involved in a heated exchange brought out all kinds of reactions from the world of cricket. Reports around KL Rahul have been on in the media saying that he is likely to leave the franchise.

KL Rahul

Rahul leaving LSG is almost official news. After what transpired between him and Sanjeev Goenka it was quite evident that the management might not want to continue with Rahul at the held as skipper.

Goenka's harsh reaction came after LSG lost to SRH by 10 wickets as the Super Giants owner was not very happy with how he led the team in that particular game. There are reports that he might join RCB and eventually lead the team next year.

Deepak Hooda

After his 451-run season for LSG in IPL 2022, Hooda has scored 84 and 145 in the next two seasons for the franchise. Hooda's all-around potential was not utilized by the franchise well enough. He has struggled to bat in whichever position he has been asked to bat.

His form has been a concern and that he is not close to being selected for India also might work against his favour. He has done his reputation a lot of harm by not taking the chances presented to him.

Amit Mishra

Mishra will turn 42 by the time the IPL starts next year. He was used as an Impact Player by LSG in almost all of the games he played. The rule will allow players like him and Piyush Chawla to be used as a surprise weapon by the bowling captain. However, if the rule is not in play next year,

Mishra in all likelihood will be released by LSG. He is still among the top wicket-takers in the tournament with with 174 wickets. He is still 26 shy of 200 IPL wickets.
