Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will lock horns with Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Lucknow in today’s clash in the ongoing IPL 2025. MS Dhoni’s return as the CSK skipper did not go as planned as they suffered a loss in the last game against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Hence, this game is going to be crucial for him and his team to be alive in the playoff race.
Pitch Report
The Ekana Stadium’s pitch is expected to favour the spinners and hence, spinners will be key from both the camps.
Head-to-Head
Five matches have been played between these sides so far. LSG have won thrice while CSK have won only once. One match has been ended with no results.
Three Fantasy Picks
Nicholas Pooran (LSG)
Pooran is currently the highest run-scorer with 349 runs in six innings, at an average of 69.80 with a strike rate of 215.43, including four fifties. He is coming off to this game with two back-to-back fifties in the last two games.
Devon Conway (CSK)
In three matches so far, Conway has smashed only one fifty that came against Punjab Kings (PBKS). However, he has yet to show the consistency for which he is known. But, fans will expect him to come well in today’s game.
Aiden Markram (LSG)
In the last three matches, Aiden Markram has shown consistency with scores like 53 vs Mumbai Indians (MI), 47 vs KKR and 58 vs Gujarat Titans (GT). Hence, he is expected to score again today.
Fantasy XI
MS Dhoni (C), Rishabh Pant (WK), Aiden Markram, Rachin Ravindra, Devon Conway, Shivam Dube, Shardul Thakur, Avesh Khan, Khaleel Ahmed, Noor Ahmad, Nicholas Pooran (VC).
