Following poor performance of Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, it has been learnt that the head coach of the franchise Justin Langer is likely to be sacked in the next season.
As per sources, Langer isn’t interacting with LSG senior players much and Zaheer Khan is taking care of the things right now. The Australian cricketer is likely to part ways with the franchise soon.
Langer has reportedly failed to build chemistry in the LSG squad and especially with the LSG mentor Zaheer Khan, who joined the setup in IPL 2025.
Zaheer is currently running the whole team and helping young players in the practice sessions.
As per sources, LSG might announce the news of parting ways with Langer in the coming days or months.

Zaheer might become the next head coach of Lucknow, if Langer parted ways with the LSG camp.
Notably, Langer was bought on board by Indian head coach Gautam Gambhir’s recommendation in IPL 2023 when Gambhir was the mentor of Lucknow's franchise. However, Langer has failed to create a cohesion in the team and as a result the team's performance has been affected.
