Lucknow Super Giants will be without Digvesh Rathi for their upcoming match, as the player has been handed a one-match suspension due to a repeated violation of the Code of Conduct in their last outing. On the other hand, Gujarat Titans head into the clash with a fully fit squad and no concerns regarding player availability.

GT vs LSG Key Players

Lucknow Super Giants' slump in IPL 2025 has mirrored the decline in Nicholas Pooran's form. When Pooran takes guard on Thursday, Shubman Gill may consider introducing Rashid Khan or Kagiso Rabada early in his innings. Pooran has found Rashid tricky to handle, managing 87 runs off 72 balls while falling to him three times. Rabada has proven even more effective, removing the Caribbean batter four times in just 42 deliveries, having given away 55 runs.

Meanwhile, Aiden Markram has emerged as one of LSG's standout performers this season. His ability to counter GT's bowling attack could be key. Markram has scored fluently against several GT bowlers - he has taken 34 off 23 balls from Mohammed Siraj, hit 35 off 24 (with one dismissal) against Rabada, and smashed 24 off just 12 balls against Prasidh Krishna, also getting out once. His form could be crucial to LSG's hopes of ending their campaign on a strong note.
