IPL 2026 imploded for Lucknow Super Giants, and R. Ashwin is calling out the disaster.

He slammed LSG’s management for benching star Ayush Badoni despite his national-level form. This tactical blunder shattered team morale and stalled development.

Ashwin warns that ignoring elite domestic talent signals a deep-rooted, systemic failure. LSG’s playoff dreams died because their leadership simply lost the plot.
