IPL 2025: Fired up LSG clash with KKR

Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders are preparing to face each other in the 21st match of the ongoing Indian Premier League on Tuesday at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. Both sides have had their fair share of ups and downs in the last few weeks, but recent victories have bolstered their confidence as they look to continue maintaining their rhythm.
KKR have shown confidence in their last four matches, managing to secure two wins. While they've had their struggles, KKR have demonstrated their capability of bouncing back. Their most recent victory saw them overcome SRH with a well-rounded team performance, clinching an 80-run win. Now, with their key players finding form at the right time, KKR will be hoping to continue their winning ways as they prepare for the battle against LSG
Similar to their opponents, LSG have also won two of their last four games. While they’ve been inconsistent, their latest performance was a statement of intent. Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant and Ravi Bishnoi are yet to churn out their best performances, having been failing since the start of the tournament. Mitchell Marsh has been the backbone of LSG’s batting while Pooran has given Marsh huge support all along. And other batters to have performed consistently for LSG are Aiden Markram, Ayush Badoni, and David Miller. The trio has fired whenever needed.
