Top 3 batters to watch out for in LSG vs CSK clash

The eighteenth edition of the Indian Premier League is going to get its first encounter between five-time champions Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Supergiants Giants in match number 30 at Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. While Lucknow Supergiants will be looking to carry on their winning momentum, Chennai Super Kings will look to finally win their first since their opening victory against Mumbai Indians back in the first week of the season. Lucknow Supergiants and Chennai Super Kings have clashed on the previous 5 occasions. Lucknow Supergiants hold the bragging rights with 3 victories under their belt compared to Chennai’s One win, while another match ended with no result. Lucknow Supergiants emerged victorious in the last two encounters played between the sides in 2024. The pitch at Ekana Cricket Stadium is known to be batter-friendly. Hence, both teams will be looking up to their batters to get the job done.

Here is the list of three batters to watch out for in the much-anticipated fixture.

3. Devon Conway

The left-handed Kiwi opener has been vital in Chennai’s exploits over the past two years. This season he is amongst the leading run scorers for Chennai despite not being included in the first few matches. Conway appears to be a batter who is in form in comparison to most other CSK batters. He can exploit Ekana’s batting-friendly track and help Chennai get off to a good start.

2. Aiden Markram

The South African has taken everyone by surprise with his form in IPL 2025. He has already scored 153 runs in 5 innings for LSG including a half-century. He has been successful in giving quality starts to the side along with Aussie star Mitchell Marsh.

1. Nicholas Pooran

The current Orange Cap holder of the season will be looking to keep his crown as he takes on men in yellow. Nicholas Pooran has already scored 288 runs in just five innings this season. He has also hit 3 half-centuries in the last 5 innings. The West Indian batter will be looking to carry his team to victory come the matchday.
