The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) approached the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 with optimism, leveraging a revamped lineup after a high-stakes mega auction. Despite assembling a roster of powerful international batters and versatile domestic all-rounders, the team struggled to maintain consistency, missing out on a top-four finish. Analysts noted several squad members whose potential was not fully realized during the campaign.
Three LSG Players Identified as Underutilised in 2026
3. Arjun Tendulkar
Arjun Tendulkar, acquired from Mumbai Indians for IPL 2026, was primarily deployed as a left-arm pace bowler with lower-order batting capabilities. However, his limited involvement—playing only one match and contributing a solitary wicket—reflects a strategic oversight. The team’s reliance on impact substitutes likely restricted his opportunities, despite his potential to contribute meaningfully in high-pressure situations.
