LSG bring in George Linde to replace injured Wanindu Hasaranga for IPL 2026
George Linde has been signed by Lucknow Super Giants as a replacement for the injured Wanindu Hasaranga in the ongoing Indian Premier League 2026. Earlier, LSG were dealt a major setback after Hasaranga was ruled out of the tournament due to a hamstring injury sustained during Sri Lankaâs opening match of the Menâs T20 World Cup 2026.
The leg-spinning all-rounder, who had been picked up for âš2 crore in the IPL 2026 auction, failed to recover in time and never joined the franchise.
LSG have brought in George Linde at his base price of âš1 crore. Although this will be his first stint in the IPL, Linde brings extensive experience, having played over 250 T20 matches globally. Moreover, he has represented South Africa in 3 Tests, 4 ODIs, and 37 T20Is, scoring 403 runs and taking 35 wickets in T20 internationals. So far, LSG have won two out of their three games, going very well in their campaign.
