The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 is set to begin on March 28, with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) entering the tournament as the defending champions. Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), who impressed in their initial seasons, have seen a dip in form over the past couple of editions.
Under the leadership of Rishabh Pant, the franchise will be eager to turn things around this year. Their campaign begins against Delhi Capitals on April 1 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium. With a renewed approach, LSG will look to bounce back and establish themselves as strong contenders once again.
Here are top three LSG bowlers to watch out for in IPL 2026:
3. Digvesh Singh Rathi
Right-arm leg-spinner Digvesh Singh Rathi is one of the most promising bowlers in the LSG lineup. In his debut IPL season in 2025, he picked up 14 wickets in 13 matches and often grabbed attention with his confident performances and signature send-offs.
Rathi’s ability to control the middle overs makes him a vital asset for the team. His variations, coupled with his knack for extracting turns, can trouble batters looking to accelerate. As he enters his second season, Rathi will aim to build on his previous performances and deliver consistent spells that can shift the momentum in LSG’s favour.
