Lsg retained players

Lucknow Super Giants: India’s left-arm fast-bowler Jaydev Unadkat and Australia’s left-arm pace all-rounder Daniel Sams have been released by Lucknow Super Giants. The franchise, though, has retained Kyle Mayers, Quinton de Kock and Mark Wood.

“LSG has built a strong foundation in the past two years and achieved good success. We want to take it to the next level by improving our squad constantly and that is what we will try to achieve in the auction,” said new head coach Justin Langer.

They had previously traded Romario Shepherd to Mumbai Indians, while bringing in Devdutt Padikkal via a trade from Rajasthan Royals, with Avesh Khan moving on to the Jaipur-based franchise. LSG had made it to the playoffs twice – in IPL 2022 and 2023 seasons.
