Lucknow Super Giants need to fix their problems quickly after a tough loss to Punjab Kings. Their batting is their strength just like Lucknow but they can't chase every time making it hard for them to win matches.

They lost their first home game badly and this is their second home game. Mitchell Marsh is in great form, while Nicholas Pooran is leading the run charts. However their captain and the most expensive player of the tournament has scored just 17 runs in the tournament so far. Lucknow Super Giants need to improve their bowling to start winning matches.

 

Mumbai Indians have a powerful squad with big names like Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, and Jasprit Bumrah. However Bumrah will not feature in this match, with an expected entry in the IPL against RCB. They still have a strong bowling lineup with Trent Boult, Deepak Chahar, and Ashwini Kumar, who took four wickets on his debut. Mumbai has won just one of their three matches; the last win came against KKR in style at home. They need their international recruit, Will Jacks to start scoring runs from this match itself. This match will be a big test for both teams as the points table is perfectly poised.

Nicholas Pooran

Nicholas Pooran is the orange cap holder this season with 189 runs in just three games with an average of 63.00, his personal best is 75 runs against Delhi Capitals in the very first match. Whenever Pooran bats he makes batting look very easy with his smooth shot making.

 

Shardul Thakur

Shardul Thakur was not picked up by any IPL team in IPL auction 2025 but he was added by LSG as an injury replacement for Mohsin Khan. Shardul took the opportunity with both hands and took six wickets so far in three matches. He can also bat for the team which makes him a clear player choice in this match.

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav was out of form since the England T20I series where he captained the Indian team for a five match T20I series. He was struggling to get past even 10 runs. His drought of runs was his best friend up until the last match at Wankhede. In the last match Suryakumar Yadav scored a quickfire 27 runs in just nine balls including three fours and two sixes. 

 

Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya brought a fresh air in Mumbai Indian’s camp after missing the first match due to a ban. He made an impact in the very first match with the ball, picking up two wickets and then followed that up with one crucial wicket in the last match against KKR while he didn’t get a chance to bat.

Will Jacks

Will Jacks is finding his rhythm in this season but slowly he’ll adjust to the conditions and start scoring runs. This match is in Lucknow where finger spinners are important to have in your fantasy teams. He can bowl a few overs against the left handers of Lucknow Super Giants. His ability to bowl and bat in the top order makes him an important pick in this match.

Ayush Badoni

Ayush Badoni scored 41 runs off 33 balls in the last match at Ekana Stadium. Badoni has been playing in Lucknow since the first season which allows him to assist the conditions better. He knows how to score runs in Lucknow’s home ground and he is a must pick for Lucknow Super Giants' home matches.

Himmat Singh

Robin Minz

Robin Minz was included in the playing 11 in the first match and got his chance to impress but he failed. Then he got an opportunity as a substitute player against Gujarat Giants and he disappointed again in that match. Now he has to warn the bench for the rest of the season until Ryan Rickelton is unfit to keep behind the wickets.

Himmat Singh

Himmat Singh is a promising star of India but his place in the 11 is a tough chance. He is a top order batter who has been seen sitting in the bench as an impact player but he will only be needed if LSG's batting order collapses in some match.
