1. Jason Holder 

Jason Holder is one of the top-drawer all-rounders going around in world cricket at the moment. The 31-year-old has featured in 200 matches in the shortest format and picked up 197 wickets at an economy of 7.86. On the batting front, he has scored 1758 runs at a strike rate of 126.38. In the international circuit, the West Indies all-rounder has bagged 51 wickets in 49 T20Is and smashed 385 runs at a strike rate of 120.98.

Lucknow Super Giants went hammer and tongs to sign Holder at the 2022 mega auction and eventually grabbed him for 8.75 CR. However, the ace all-rounder was not able to perform as per his lofty standards. He took 14 wickets in 12 matches at an economy of 9.42 and scored 58 runs at a strike rate of 131.82.

The team management was not inclined towards paying a hefty amount for Holder for the 2023 season and hence decided to move past him. Having released the Barbados-born, LSG will go hunting for multi-faceted cricketers at the marquee event.

The Lucknow franchise could look to sign the likes of Sam Curran, Ben Stokes, and Cameron Green to play the all-rounder role. However, if LSG fails to grab either of the trio, they could ponder over re-signing Holder. The Caribbean cricketer is a match-winner with both bat and ball and Rahul & co. might try to pick him at an affordable price.
