In match 64th of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, Gujarat Titans (GT) are set to host Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the massive Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
GT, on one hand, are riding high after an extraordinary campaign. With 9 wins in 12 games, they are sitting at the top of the points table. A win on Thursday would almost guarantee them a top-two spot in the playoffs. The title holders of the 2022 edition are looking solid to repeat their success this time. Their top three — Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Jos Buttler — have all performed exceptionally well, each scoring more than 500 runs. Meanwhile, their bowling attack, led by the experienced Mohammed Siraj, has delivered at crucial moments.
LSG, on the other hand, had a disastrous run after a brilliant start to the season. With four consecutive defeats, they are already out of the playoff race. Despite a star-studded batting lineup featuring Mitchell Marsh, Aiden Markram, and Nicholas Pooran, who have all performed well, their bowling department has struggled significantly. Lacking notable names in the bowling attack, they have often been let down at crucial moments. It will be a tough challenge for LSG to overcome the stronger and more balanced GT side.

Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report:
The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad offers a well-balanced pitch that favors both batsmen and bowlers. Early in the match, fast bowlers can get some movement off the surface, making the initial overs crucial for taking wickets. As the game progresses, the pitch tends to slow down slightly, giving spinners an opportunity to make an impact in the middle overs. The outfield is fast, allowing batsmen to score quickly, but the large boundaries demand well-timed shots. Teams often prefer to chase after winning the toss due to dew making conditions easier for batting in the second innings. Adaptability is key here.
