It’s time for match no. 30 of the Tata IPL 2025. The Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow is all set to host the home team, Lucknow Super Giants, and visitors Chennai Super Kings in what is supposed to be a very crucial game for the latter.
The hosts, Lucknow Super Giants, have turned the tables in the last three games. The Rishabh Pant-led side has won three games in a row after succumbing to defeat in two of their opening three games. The team has surely found its mojo, be it away or at home, and therefore it will be tough for CSK’s ‘Test team’ to get the better of Lucknow in this encounter.
Talking about MS Dhoni-led CSK, they are right at the foot of the points table with 1 win from 6 matches. CSK batters playing Test cricket in T20s isn’t helping their cause. The team needs to up the ante in the batting unit and get some good totals on the board. Being the only team this season to not touch the 200-run mark is nothing but a shame.
Will CSK be able to put up a tough fight against high-flying LSG, or will LSG make a mockery of CSK again? We will find this out soon. Let’s delve deeper into this post for LSG vs CSK Dream11 Prediction.
