IPL 2025: 3 Players Who Can Replace Aiden Markram

Date:

As the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 approaches, there is speculation about potential replacements for Aiden Markram if he is unavailable due to injury or other reasons. 

Markram, known for his leadership and batting prowess, was acquired by the Lucknow Super Giants for ₹2 crore in the IPL 2025 mega auction. 

Here are three players who could potentially fill the gap left by Markram:

1. Ben Duckett

Ben Duckett is a versatile English batsman who has shown impressive form in recent years. 

His ability to play both as an opener and in the middle order makes him an attractive replacement for Markram. 

Duckett’s aggressive batting style and experience in various T20 leagues could provide the necessary depth to the Lucknow Super Giants’ lineup.

2. Steve Smith

Steve Smith, the Australian cricket legend, is another strong contender to replace Markram. 

Smith’s exceptional batting skills and leadership experience make him a valuable asset for any team. His ability to anchor the innings and play match-winning knocks could be crucial for LSG if Markram is unavailable.

Despite occasional dips in form, Smith remains one of the most consistent batsmen in the world. 

His recent performances in international cricket and the Big Bash League have shown that he still has the ability to dominate bowlers and control the tempo of the game.

3. Mayank Agarwal

Mayank Agarwal, a seasoned Indian opener, could also be considered as a replacement for Markram. 

Agarwal has a proven track record in the IPL, having played for teams like Punjab Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad. 

His ability to score big runs at the top of the order could help stabilize the LSG batting lineup if Markram is not available.

These players bring different strengths to the table, but all have the potential to fill the void left by Markram’s absence and contribute significantly to the Lucknow Super Giants’ campaign in IPL 2025.
