Lucknow super-managers had to call on the “world class” coach after the dismissal of Zaheer Khan
The future of the former Indian stimulator Zaheer Khan is in danger with the Super Giants of Lucknow (LSG) in the next edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). LSG had a really forgetful IPL 2025 season under the Captain of Rishabh Pant, and a major overhaul is in the cards for the IPL 2025.
However, it remains to be seen whether Lucknow Super Giant’s head coach will lose his job or not after having failed to guide the franchise to the playoffs of the last season, but one thing is clear: they started the preparations for the next IPL season.
Lucknow Super Giants would have separated from Zaheer Khan
A Revsportz journalist revealed that Zaheer Khan’s position was seriously threatened. Zaheer, who was the Mentor of the LSG and Bowling coach for the super giants of Lucknow in the recent IPL 2025, should be replaced by another elite man before the 2025.

The Lucknow franchise is said to be in advanced talks to call on a world -class bowl coach from another IPL team. However, the sources have kept close lips on the name of the person and the franchise from which LSG plans to exchange the coach to sharpen their bowling attack.
The journalist also said that the departure of Zaheer Khan from LSG was almost confirmed before IPL 2026. The former Indian stimulator had joined the franchise that before the mega sale at IPL 2025, and only after a bad season, the franchise would not have decided to show him the door.

According to several reports, the management of the LSG team and the owner Sanjiv Goenka are not satisfied with the way the season took place and the style of Zaheer, whose one year agreement is now not very likely to be extended. Interestingly, Captain Pant and Chief Coach Justin Langer are safe now.
LSG only succeeded in 14 games in 14 games, and Pant had a difficult season both as a striker and captain. His frustration was visible for several games, and he was even seen in an animated conversation with Zaheer during a match, where his hitting order was called into question.
Rishabh pant ready to shine in England Series Test Series
On the other hand, Pant, the new vice-captain of India tests, is currently preparing for the series of five game tests against England, from June 20 in Leeds. During a training session on the famous Lord’s cricket field, Rishabh Pant was seen hitting big strokes against spin quisors.
While facing Washington Sundar, Pant played a strong Slog scan that showed its incredible power, and the shot was so large that it ended up breaking the roof of the training area. It seems that he is ready to shine with the bat for India in England after a poor season IPL 2025.
