‘If Batting Can Fire And Bowling Can Develop, We’ve Got A Very Good Team,’ Says Langer On LSG Squad
Lucknow Super Giants: As the countdown to the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 begins, Lucknow Super Giants are banking on a refreshed squad, revamped support staff, and a more settled leadership group to script a turnaround. Head coach Justin Langer expressed optimism about the team’s preparation, highlighting a strong auction strategy and improved balance within the squad.
LSG, one of the few franchises yet to win an IPL title, endured a disappointing 2025 season, finishing sixth with six wins and eight losses. Determined to address their shortcomings, particularly in bowling, the franchise made key additions, including Mohammed Shami, Anrich Nortje, and Wanindu Hasaranga.
“It’s been a brilliant build-up. I think we had a very good auction and that’s where it starts,” Langer told JioStar, reflecting on the team’s pre-season progress. “We had a great base last year. I believe our batting was the best in the competition last year. We weren’t able to capitalise on that, but this year, we’ve added to our squad. There will be some really tough selection calls. But if our batting can keep firing and our bowling can keep developing, then we’ve got a very good team.”
