Hasaranga Uncertain, Pathirana Near Return: IPL 2026 Sees Major Squad Twist

IPL 2026 ke beech ek bada squad drama saamne aa raha hai. Lucknow Super Giants ke star spinner Wanindu Hasaranga ab tak team se nahi jude hain, jabki Kolkata Knight Riders ke liye Matheesha Pathirana ki return ki positive update mili hai.

Hasaranga Abhi Tak Team Se Door

LSG ne Hasaranga ko base price par sign kiya tha, lekin ab tak unhone franchise join nahi ki hai. Reports ke mutabik unhone abhi tak apni availability par koi clear update nahi diya hai.

Sources ke hisaab se Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) abhi unka fitness test conduct karne wala hai, jiske baad hi unhe IPL ke liye NOC milega.

  • Last match: February (T20 World Cup)
  • Injury: Left hamstring tear
  • Ab tak bowling practice bhi nahi ki

Isi wajah se LSG management ab replacement options par bhi seriously soch rahi hai.

LSG Replacement Options Ready

Agar Hasaranga unavailable rehte hain, toh Lucknow Super Giants ke paas kai experienced options available hain:

  • Mujeeb Ur Rahman
  • Mohammad Nabi
  • Liam Dawson
  • Rehan Ahmed

Ye sab players RAPP list me available hain, jahan se franchises emergency replacement le sakti hain.

KKR Ke Liye Good News: Pathirana Comeback Mode Me

Dusri taraf Kolkata Knight Riders ke liye relief ki khabar hai. Unke star pacer Matheesha Pathirana ne nets me bowling start kar di hai.

Reports ke mutabik Pathirana ne Colombo ke R Premadasa Stadium me practice ki, halaanki abhi wo full intensity par bowl nahi kar rahe hain.

KKR ne unhe ₹18 crore me kharida tha, aur team unki jaldi return ko lekar kaafi hopeful hai.

IPL 2026 Me Squad Uncertainty Ka Asar

IPL 2026 me overseas players ki availability ek bada issue ban rahi hai. Hasaranga jaise key players ke delay hone se teams ki planning par direct impact pad raha hai.

LSG ko ab jaldi decision lena padega, jabki KKR fans Pathirana ki comeback ka intezaar kar rahe hain.

Conclusion

Ek taraf Hasaranga ki uncertainty LSG ke liye headache ban rahi hai, toh dusri taraf Pathirana ki return KKR ke liye season-changing boost ho sakti hai.

IPL 2026 me squad updates hi teams ka future decide kar sakte hain — aur ye story abhi aur garam hone wali hai.
