KL Rahul has led the Lucknow Super Giants for three consecutive years in the IPL. However, veteran India cricketer Amit Mishra suggests that Rahul might not continue in this role for the upcoming season. Mishra believes LSG may look for a new captain, emphasizing the importance of having the right mindset for T20 cricket.

“It does not matter if he is in the Indian team or not. But a person who has the right mentality for T20s should be the captain. Someone who plays for the team should be captain. I am sure LSG will look for a better captain,” Mishra said during a conversation with YouTuber Shubhankar Mishra.
Mishra also shared insights into a conversation between LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka and Rahul after their 10-wicket loss against Sunrisers Hyderabad. “He (Goenka) was disappointed. We lost two back-to-back matches very badly. Against KKR, we lost by some 90-100 runs and against SRH, the match was finished within 10 overs. It felt like we were bowling to them during a net practice session. If I am so angry about it, will someone who has actually invested in the team not feel angry? It was not a huge deal. But I later came to know that he said the bowling was very bad and the team should have shown some fight. It looked like you had completely surrendered. But I feel people and media hyped it up a bit,” Mishra explained.
