The two teams have met five times in IPL history, with LSG winning three of those matches. One game had no result.
The weather in Lucknow for the LSG vs CSK clash is expected to be warm, with temperatures likely to touch 29 degrees Celsius. Humidity levels are forecasted to hover around 40%, and there’s little to no chance of rain, as per Weather.com.
Pathirana & Noor Ahmad will be crucial and will be CSK’s key in breaking LSG’s batting rhythm.
Conway, Rachin Ravindra, and Sam Curran must step up for CSK to stay alive.
CSK continue to miss their key opener, impacting their top-order consistency.
MS Dhoni’s return to the leadership role hasn’t sparked a CSK revival. They lost to KKR by their biggest margin in terms of balls remaining in their last game.
Nicholas Pooran is in the form of his life. He has already smashed 31 sixes this season, which is almost equal to the total number of sixes hit by the entire CSK team (32). That’s a staggering stat! Currently holding the Orange Cap, Pooran is in red-hot form and will pose a serious threat to CSK.
Pathirana & Noor Ahmad of CSK’s bowling will be key in breaking LSG’s batting rhythm.
Just one win in five games so far CSK is badly struggling this season. They need a turnaround, and fast.
The surface at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium has offered mixed conditions in recent IPL seasons. While it played on the slower side in 2023, the following year saw more assistance for batters. In the ongoing IPL 2025 season, the pitch has shown inconsistent behavior across the three matches played so far. It initially provided pace and bounce, but the last two games have seen it slow down considerably. In the most recent fixture at this venue, teams found it relatively easy to score in the first 10 overs but struggled to maintain momentum in the second half of their innings.
