Here’s a quick recap of their last five encounters:
In a memorable match at Ekana Stadium in 2024, Marcus Stoinis played one of the greatest IPL knocks, smashing 124* to guide LSG to a successful chase of 217. It was an innings of controlled aggression and power that broke records and left fans awestruck.
In a battle of captains, Ruturaj Gaikwad stood tall at Chepauk with a breathtaking 108* against LSG, anchoring CSK’s innings. Despite his heroic effort, CSK lost the match narrowly, showing how tightly contested this rivalry is.
The CSK captain has shown poise and flair at the top, scoring consistently against LSG. His 108* stands as one of the best innings in the history of this fixture.
The Aussie all-rounder has made his presence felt with power-packed knocks. His century remains a defining moment of the rivalry.
With his crafty leg-spin, Bishnoi has picked up crucial wickets, especially in the middle overs.
The English all-rounder has been a valuable asset with the ball, including a match-winning 4/26 performance.
The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) head into the IPL 2025 season with a formidable batting lineup but will undoubtedly miss the services of Marcus Stoinis, who was a key player for them in previous editions. However, the addition of Rishabh Pant, who has joined LSG as their captain, adds a new dimension to their squad.
Pant, known for his fearless stroke play and aggressive leadership style, will look to bring his explosive energy into the LSG setup. His presence alongside the hard-hitting Nicholas Pooran and seasoned campaigner David Miller gives LSG incredible depth and power in their middle order. Both Miller and Pooran are known for their ability to finish games in style, making the LSG batting unit one of the most dangerous in the tournament.

Chennai Super Kings in the TATA IPL 2025 Mega Auction managed to bring back a key part of their core that led them to success in the previous years. Their captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, Matheesha Pathirana, Rachin Ravindra, Devon Conway, will all be returning in the yellow jerseys.
But to add to the fans excitement, Ravichandran Ashwin, the franchise legend is also marking his return in yellow after being roped in by the franchise at the Mega Auction. English allrounder and former CSK star Sam Curran also returns to the yellove franchise while they have further bolstered their pace unit by adding gun aussie pacer and BBL winning captain with Hobart Hurricanes - Nathan Ellis.
But Ruturaj Gaikwad’s injury has meant that MS Dhoni will be captaining the side and Dewald Brevis has come in to address their batting woes this season.
