New Delhi: The 18th edition of the Indian Premier League is now in full flow, delivering back-to-back thrilling encounters. Match number 26 of IPL 2025 promises to be another exciting contest as two top-performing teams of this season go head-to-head. Lucknow Super Giants will take on Gujarat Titans at the iconic Ekana Cricket Stadium on April 12.
Both teams head into this contest riding high on confidence after impressive victories in their previous games. Lucknow Super Giants are coming off a thrilling 4-run win over defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders in a high-scoring encounter. Their batting unit has looked dominant this season, with Nicholas Pooran stealing the show in the last match with a blistering unbeaten 87 off just 36 balls, helping LSG post a formidable total of 239. Mitchell Marsh, the Australian opener, has also been crucial at the top, scoring 80+ in the same game and providing solid starts throughout the tournament. On the bowling front, Shardul Thakur has been among the wickets, while young leg-spinner Digvesh Rathi has emerged as a key player in the middle overs.
Meanwhile, Gujarat Titans have looked unstoppable in recent outings. In their most recent fixture, they cruised to a commanding 58-run victory over Rajasthan Royals. Sai Sudharsan starred with the bat, smashing 82 off 52 deliveries and earning the Player of the Match award. Under Shubman Gill’s leadership, GT have now registered four consecutive wins this season. While their top three have carried much of the batting load, the form of Sudharsan and Jos Buttler has ensured consistent run-scoring. Their bowling attack, spearheaded by Mohammed Siraj, has also been in top form, with Sai Kishore, Siraj, and Prasidh Krishna all making key contributions.
With both teams on a roll, the big question remains: Will LSG secure a home win or will GT extend their winning streak?
