Lucknow Super Giants could also be among the frontrunners if Ben Stokes enters the auction pool. Following the departure of Rishabh Pant and a disappointing 2026 campaign, the franchise is expected to be on the lookout for an experienced leader.

Stokes brings leadership qualities along with his all-round skills, making him an attractive captaincy candidate. His aggressive mindset, tactical awareness, and vast international experience could help Lucknow rebuild after a difficult season.

With additional purse flexibility following Pant's exit, the franchise could be willing to spend heavily to secure a player of Stokes' calibre.
