Bharat ArunThe former Pace India, was on board as a bowling coach by LuckNow Super Giants (LSG) before the next season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2026. Among the last franchises in the Mega League, LSG welcomed the experienced activist after her visit with Kolkata Knight Riders. Arun had been on a four -year stay with the triple champions, but he will now go to LSG to guide them to their Maiden Title Hunt.
Lucknow -based franchise already has tastes of Zaheer Khan, but in capacity of a mentor. However, since Zaheer joined the team in a one -year contract, Arun was probably brought on the cover. The reason for his departure from KKR is not surprising, because a T20 specialist in Dwayne Bravo is already part of the side. Bravo, like Zaheer, is also able to capacity with the Knight Riders, and should now play a double role.
Earlier, it was reported that ARUN joined Chennai Super Kings, CHENNAI champion, but with this now excluded possibility, at least for the moment, the 62 -year -old will want to guide Rishabh Pant and his men to a successful campaign in 2026. Arun will bring to the table almost a decade of experience in the training of superior franchises and international sides KKR.
Knight Riders likely to reorganize coaches staff
The born in Vijaywada is not the only part of the coaches to leave KKR. The side led by Ajinkya Rahane in 2025, also offered goodbye to his longtime head coach Chandrakant Pandit. The franchise mentioned that Pandit had left with the intention of exploring the opportunities outside, and the two signed happy terms. Unlike Arun, there is no information if Pandit has teamed up with another IPL team. However, he will be a warm choice for any team, because he has led teams like KKR, Vidarbha, MP and Mumbai to several title victories in the last decade.
