LSG vs CSK Predicted Playing XI IPL 2025: LSG vs CSK Predicted Playing XI Today, Full Squad: Rishabh Pant’s Confident Lucknow Super Giants Host Struggling Chennai Super Kings at Ekana Cricket Stadium on Monday.
In an IPL 2025 clash at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow, the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), currently in fourth place, will face the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), who are at the bottom of the table. LSG, who had a slow start with just one win in their first three matches, come into this game on the back of a three-match winning streak. On the other hand, CSK, with just one win in six games, are struggling and have been plagued by inconsistent performances with both bat and ball.
To make matters worse, CSK’s captain Ruturaj Gaikwad has been ruled out of the tournament due to an elbow injury, leading to MS Dhoni taking over the captaincy. However, this change has not resulted in an improvement, as evidenced by their dismal performance against Kolkata Knight Riders, where they posted their lowest total at Chepauk.
Despite a weakened bowling attack with multiple injury concerns, LSG appear more settled, especially with their bowling line-up. In terms of batting, while Rishabh Pant has been in strong form, other players have also stepped up, contributing significantly to the team’s success. As a result, LSG is expected to go in with their settled XI for the match against CSK.”
Chennai, on the other hand, desperately needs reinforcement in their batting lineup. With Ayush Mhatre set to join the team in place of Ruturaj Gaikwad, the CSK management will look to integrate him into the playing XI at some point during the tournament to bolster their struggling top order.
