Prithvi Shaw seemed to be a logical option for LSG, which had no single Indian opening option in IPL 2025.
In what comes as a fascinating development, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), especially head coach Justin Langer, IPL 2025 mega auction, and even after that, he wanted to choose Prithvi Shaw. However, the agreement has never been in place and the opening of the mumbai was not sold this season. Although Shaw could not find any holder, LSG’s campaign was completed when he ended in the seventh place in the score table.
Did LSG want Langer Shaw?
Alright, CricbloggerLSG Head Coach Justin Langer was eager to have Shaw as part of his plans and was “almost chosen”. However, a last -minute heart change saw the agreement fell. “Shaw was not finally sold at auction and created an important anger between fans and inside fans who believed that he could play in 30 Lakh. Instead, he chose to spend 4 crore on a franchise Ayush Badoni – a movement that raises a few eyebrows around the jack”Read Cricblogger’s report.
The report is fascinating about Ayush Badoni’s name because the report was kept for RS 4 Crore and was not auction. In addition to Badoni, LSG protected Ravi Bishnoi, Mohsin Khan, Mayyank Yadav and Nicholas Pooran. LSG’s auction strategy team was to load with overseas dough. Since LSG had to rely on Mitchell Marsh and Aiden Markram, the movement seemed initially controversial.
It would make sense to include Shaw, as LSG was deprived of Indian senior options. Despite fitness and disciplinary concerns, Shaw continues to be one of the talented fruits that have not yet hit the ceiling. One of the several Indians who tested the face at the first exit, but now it’s not close to the best.
Will Justin Langer IPL be dismissed before 2026?
In addition, LSG is reportedly reserved for Langer after IPL 2025 season. Langer joined the team in July 2023, but things did not go as planned. Despite the fact that he joined the playoffs in 2022 and 2023 under the previous leadership, he could not have an impact under LSG Langer.
Zaheer Khan, the mentor of the team, deals with daily tasks and shows that the dynamics of the dressing room are not ideal. Zaheer is likely to take over as a head coach before the 2026 season. Langer said that Sanjiv Goenka, owner of LSG, said that a coach could not be considered great without the title of IPL.
