LSG vs RCB IPL 2025 Match No 61 LIVE: Rishabh Pant’s Lucknow Super Giants in a must-win clash at home against Sunrisers Hyderabad with Playoff hopes hanging by a thread.
Lucknow Super Giants will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in match No. 61 of the IPL 2025 season in a must-win contest for the home side at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow if they hope to make it to the Playoffs stage. Gujarat Titans win over Delhi Capitals on Sunday have helped 3 teams – GT, Punjab Kings and Royals Challengers Bengaluru qualify for the Playoffs in one shot.
Now 3 teams – Mumbai Indians, DC and LSG – are battling for a lone remaining spot in the Playoffs. Among these three, LSG have the worst odds with only 10 points from 11 matches. First and foremost they need to win their three remaining matches, starting with one against SRH on Monday evening.
In addition to this, they need to improve on their net run-rate which is current in negative (-0.469) as compared to MI’s +1.156. On the other hand, last year’s finalists SRH are already out of the race of qualifying for Playoffs.
For Rishabh Pant’s side, New Zealand pacer Will O’Rourke is set to replace tearway Indian pacer Mayank Yadav, who has been ruled out of remaining IPL 2025 season. Meanwhile, SRH is expected to miss the services of their opener Travis Head, who tested positive for COVID-19 in Australia and is only expected to arrive in India on Monday morning.
In Head’s absence, Ishan Kishan might be partnering Abhishek Sharma at the top of the order. Apart from him, SRH left-arm pacer Jaydev Unadkat is also missing the clash due to personal reasons.
