LSG rope in Bharat Arun as bowling coach

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) have roped in Bharat Arun as their bowling coach for the upcoming seasons of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The former India pacer, widely credited for guiding and inspiring India's bowling unit during his tenure as bowling coach, joins LSG after a successful stint with Kolkata Knight Riders, which included a triumphant season in 2024. He was at KKR for four years, starting from the 2022 season.

Arun (62) has inked a two-year deal with the Sanjiv Goenka-owned side.

The induction of Arun into the coaching staff means LSG are unlikely to continue with Zaheer Khan, the mentor of the Rishabh Pant-captained side last season. As previously reported, Zaheer had a one-year contract with the franchise and the management is seriously reviewing the deal. Chances of a renewal are bleak, as also of head coach Justin Langer, who was part of the team for a couple of seasons.
