Aiden Markram to replace Rishabh Pant as LSG captain in IPL 2027 ...Middle East

Pant has been criticized for making tactically weak decisions as skipper and has now led LSG to a group stage finish two seasons in a row. In fact, LSG were the first team to be eliminated from playoff contention in IPL 2026.

LSG had started the season mostly fine, with two wins in their first three matches, but it all unravelled soon after. A streak of 6 losses in a row essentially confirmed that Rishabh Pant's men would be the first ones out of playoff contention.

Someone else could be captain- Michael Vaughan

Speaking on Cricbizz, Michael Vaughan said that while LSG had found themselves a good core to carry into next season, they will need to sack Rishabh Pant as captain, if not release him altogether.

"That's something they're gonna have to put right. Look, they found a combination at the top of the order in [Josh] Inglis and Mitchell Marsh. You'd think that was worth carrying on with, [Nicholas] Pooran at No. 3. Do you want all of your top 3 to be overseas players? Probably not, so maybe one of those will have to miss out for next year."

Look, a year away from now, a lot of things can happen, but clearly, I think that the bowling also needs a bit of tinkering as well. I don't think it's as good as some of the other teams because they're at the bottom of the table. It's a combination of everything: the fielding, batting, and bowling. And quite clearly, over the two months of the IPL, they haven't been quite up to scratch," he added.

Apart from the poor form, Pant has also made questionable decisions as captain, including in the batting order multiple times. LSG will play their last match of IPL 2026 against the Punjab Kings in Lucknow on May 23.
