Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 LSG Confirmed Playing XI vs SRH

Sunrisers Hyderabad will meet Lucknow Super Giants in the seventh match of the Indian Premier League’s 18th season, the IPL 2025, on Thursday, March 27, 2025, at 07:30 PM IST, at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.
SRH is coming off a big win against the Rajasthan Royals, while Lucknow Super Giants are coming off a setback in a highly contested encounter against the Delhi Capitals.
Last year, SRH dominated this encounter, winning by 10 wickets while chasing 166 runs in less than ten overs. LSG showcased a great batting display in the last match against DC but Lucknow’s bowling department failed to defend the total.
Despite their bowling troubles, the Lucknow Super Giants thrashed the Delhi Capitals 7–3. However, the bowlers failed to keep the pressure on the DC batsman, and they finally won by one wicket in the final over.
Captain Rishabh Pant was a disappointment for the Super Giants, being out for a duck in the sixth ball. The middle order struggled for LSG, with players like Ayush Badoni, Shahbaz Ahmed, and Shardul Thakur unable to make much of an impact.

Nicholas Pooran at NO. 3

In the last match, he scored 75 runs in just 30 balls with a strike rate of 250, hitting six boundaries and seven over boundaries.
Middle-order
Lucknow Supergiants’ new captain, Rishabh Pant, failed to score any runs with his bat. He got caught out by Kuldeep Yadav, his ex-teammate. In this match, his batting will be very crucial for achieving a huge score or chasing a target.
The South African power hitter David Miller anchored the inning when falling quick wickets of LSG’s middle and lower middle order. He not only anchored the innings but he also played an aggressive inning of 27 runs in just 19 balls with a strike rate of 142.
Ayush Badoni is known for being a good anchor and a good finisher but in this match, he failed to showcase his talent and ability. He only scored 4 runs in five balls and then he went out by Kuldeep Yadav.
The all-rounder Shahbaz Ahmed also failed to play a good inning; he scored only 9 runs in 8 balls, hitting one boundary. He came to bowling also but failed to take any wickets.
Bowlers
Shardul Thakur got a promotion in his batting order but unfortunately, he couldn’t open his score sheet and got run out on the second ball of his innings. But in bowling, he successfully gets two important wickets of Jake Fraser-McGurk and Abishek Porel.
The mystery spinner Ravi Bishnoi also got the opportunity to score some runs with his bat but he failed to score any runs. With the ball, he took two wickets but his economy rate was the highest among all the bowlers of LSG.
In the last match, Digvesh Rathi made his debut in the IPL. He showcased his talent by taking two wickets from their team and his bowling economy was 7.75, which is the best among all the LSG’s bowlers. In this match, he is also looking for this kind of performance against the heavyweight batting lineup of Hyderabad.
Prince Yadav was the other debutant in that match, but he didn’t make his debut memorable. He failed to take any wickets and conceded 47 runs in four overs.
Impact Player
Manimaran Siddharth could be the impact player for LSG in this match like the previous one. In the previous match, he came as an impact player and took 2 wickets.
