SRH vs LSG Match Prediction IPL 2025
Sunrises Hyderabad (SRH) aim to make it their second consecutive win in IPL 2025 as they prepare to take on Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad, on Thursday, March 27, 2025.
SRH started their campaign with a commanding victory against Rajasthan Royals by 44 runs, showing their firepower on a high-scoring pitch. Ishan Kishan’s century-winning innings took them to a record 286/6, the second-highest team score in IPL history. Heinrich Klaasen, Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, and Nitish Kumar Reddy all played their part in their batting dominance. Rajasthan struggled and came up short, thanks to Harshal Patel’s match-winning spell and Simarjeet Singh’s early breakthroughs.
In the meantime, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) were left heartbroken after a one-wicket loss to Delhi Capitals in their first match. Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran’s half-centuries provided LSG with a strong foundation, reaching 209/8. The bowlers had placed Delhi in deep trouble at 64/5, but a record 66 off 31 balls by Ashutosh Sharma* helped DC win a thrilling last over.
With both teams looking for crucial points, this game promises a closely contested battle between Sunrisers Hyderabad’s big-hitting batting and Lucknow’s well-balanced bowling attack.

Pitch Report: Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium
The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium has become a batting paradise, as the recent seasons of the Indian Premier League have suggested. Out of seven games here a year ago, only one was canceled due to rain, but seven out of 12 innings yielded scores above 200.
With a flat pitch and short grounds, batting first is the option as it may be challenging to chase 250+ totals. Expect a high-scoring encounter with bowlers having their task cut out.
