The Lucknow Super Giants acquired Josh Inglis despite knowing he would only be available for four games at an exorbitant price of ₹8.6 crore. The scenario becomes more complicated because the Lucknow Super Giants already have Rishabh Pant and Nicholas Pooran as wicketkeepers. Inglis' prospects of reaching the XI appear poor, with Mitchell Marsh, Pooran, Markram, Hasaranga, and Nortje all set to take the overseas positions. Furthermore, his strained relationship with the prior arsenal, Punjab Kings, in terms of last-minute mediation to remove him from the former team's roster, may call into question his credibility.
