3 reasons why KL Rahul must leave Lucknow Super Giants before IPL 2025

KL Rahul’s relationship with the LSG owners is a hot topic of discussion at the moment. As per reports, LSG might release their skipper ahead of the next season. Also, it may be a good idea for KL Rahul to step out of the franchise. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of three reasons why KL Rahul must leave Lucknow Super Giants before IPL 2025.

1) The EKANA pitch may not suit KL Rahul’s strengths

The EKANA pitch is a bit slow and may not assist the batters that much. KL Rahul is one of India’s best batters for all conditions. Yet, at times, he struggles when the ball comes slowly to the bat.

A venue such as the Chinnaswamy or the Wankhede could suit his strengths. To set his T20 career back on track, he could leave LSG before the next auctions.

2) Bad light on his relationship with the owners

The ownership issue is one of the reasons why KL Rahul must leave Lucknow Super Giants before IPL 2025. The viral video of the conversation between Sanjiv Goenka and KL Rahul after the game against SRH has put a bad light on the franchise.

Now, the focus will be more on this aspect. To just avoid these conversations again, KL Rahul could leave the franchise. He could restart his career elsewhere in IPL 2025.

3) Might need a fresh environment to start a reset

KL Rahul has actually started playing well after returning from his injury last year. He has done well for India in ODIs and is also doing well in Tests. It is only his T20 game that needs some correction.

In a fresh environment, KL Rahul can actually achieve that. He has the skills and the temperament to make it happen. Hence, leaving LSG could be a good idea.
