On May 29, the franchise informed that Rishabh Pant had wished to put down the leadership role, and the team management accepted that as well. As the keeper-batter is no longer the captain of the Lucknow Super Giants, there are speculations around his career with the franchise.
According to a journalist, the star keeper-batter is all set to continue with the team in the upcoming season as well. As Pant is no longer the leader of the troop, the franchise will have to elect a new skipper ahead of IPL 2026. Mitchell Marsh could be the next captain of LSG, who played some brilliant knocks in the 2026 season.

Tom Moody advises a 'reset'
“The last couple of years have been difficult for him. He hasn't reached the heights he would've expected for himself. It's the right decision - certainly the right decision for him, it's the right decision for the franchise. Let's hope this is the corner he turns that enables him to play the brand of cricket we recognise alongside him,” Tom Moodey mentioned in his official statement.
“As for Pant's future at LSG, Moody said that was an "obvious question", but one whose answer would only be possible after a full season review,” according to the media report.
