The IPL 2025 encounter between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Gujarat Titans (GT) was a brilliant spectacle of power-hitting and momentum shifts. In the end, it was Mitchell Marsh’s maiden IPL century and Nicholas Pooran’s return to brilliant form that powered LSG to a mammoth score, which proved too difficult for GT to achieve.

Mitchell Marsh Steals the Show

Marsh, who has been playing in the IPL circuit since 2010, finally got his chance to step into the spotlight. Scoring 117 runs off just 64 balls, Marsh anchored the LSG innings and added energy in the death overs. Along with him, Nicholas Pooran made a blistering performance with 56 runs off 23* balls to cap off the evening and give LSG a blockbuster-worthy finish.

LSG’s Innings: Building the Monster Total

 Powerplay (53/0): Despite a few body blows and a poor start, Marsh and Aiden Markram held firm to lay a solid platform. Some big overs from Arshad Khan and Rabada helped them find the rhythm.

Middle overs (107/1): Marsh bowled brilliantly and dismissed Prasidh Krishna and Sai Kishore at will. After the dismissal of Markram (36 off 23 balls), Pooran immediately came up with a blistering innings. He conceded 70 runs in 5 overs of spin, including 25 runs in one over of Rashid Khan.

Death Overs (75/1): The real mayhem began here. Marsh completed his century in style, Pooran completed his half-century and Rishabh Pant contributed to the game by hitting two sixes in the 20th over. LSG scored 235/2, their highest score of the season.

GT’s Response: Promise, but No Punch

• Powerplay (67/1): Shubman Gill and Sai Sudarshan started off GT’s innings aggressively attacking the LSL bowlers. Jos Buttler ended this phase on a high note by hitting fours and sixes.

• Middle overs (98/2): This is where GT started to lose grip. Sudharsan, Gill and Butler – all departed before they could capitalise on the start. The onus fell on Shahrukh Khan and Sherfane Rutherford, who fought bravely and brought GT closer.
• Death Overs (37/6): Game. Set. Match. A devastating double wicket from William O’Rourke broke the backbone of GT. Shahrukh scored a brilliant half century (57 off 29 balls) but wickets started falling fast. Ayush Badoni wrapped up the match by taking two wickets in the last over.

  GT captain Shubman Gill was unreservedly uninhibited in his post-match analysis. “We gave away 15-20 runs extra. If we had restricted them to 210-220, the result would have been different,” he said. He emphasised on GT’s struggle in the latter part of LSG’s innings.

  Gill, who has already qualified for the playoffs, acknowledged the urgent need to correct these mistakes ahead of the big matches. He said, “We were in the game till the 17th over. But the momentum just slipped.”
