IPL 2025 Retention: Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) Retained Players

Lucknow Super Giants have opted to retain Nicholas Pooran for Rs 21 crore, as the West Indies star is their first pick. India's pace sensation Mayank Yadav has been retained for Rs 11 crore, whereas spinner Ravi Bishnoi is set to extend his stay at the franchise for Rs 11 crore.

Along with that, LSG have also decided to keep two uncapped Indian players. Left-arm pacer Mohsin Khan and batter Ayush Badoni both are set to continue with the franchise for the upcoming IPL cycle. Badoni, a young batter from Delhi, has scored some important runs for them and is definitely a top player to have in the ranks. Although Mohsin's stint with LSG has been marred with injuries, he picked up 10 wickets for LSG last season. Badoni, on the other hand, played all 14 matches for the franchise and scored 235 runs.

Zaheer Khan's arrival at the LSG helm is said to be key behind the pacers' retentions, especially Mohsin Khan. The Supergiants failed to qualify for the playoffs in IPL 2024 and will now be hoping for a good auction to conjure up a strong squad for next season and beyond.
