IPL 2025, SRH vs LSG LIVE Cricket Score: Sunrisers Hyderabad aim to continue run fest as they lock horns with Lucknow Super Giants – The Indian Express

IPL 2025, SRH vs LSG Live Cricket Score Updates: Get ready for another run fest as Sunrisers Hyderabad prepare to host Lucknow Super Giants at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Thursday, the same venue where they bludgeoned Rajasthan Royals with the second highest Indian Premier League score in history when they posted 286 runs. The teams have played each other 4 times with Lucknow having the edge with 3 wins to Hyderabad’s 1.
Last year, when these two sides met, Hyderabad shattered Lucknow’s slim play-off hopes when they thrashed them by 10 wickets, chasing down 166 runs in 9.4 overs with Abhishek Sharma and Travis head firing on all cylinders. This year also, SRH boast these two destructive entities in their midst while also adding Ishan Kisha, who slammed a century in the last match against RR, in their lineup. They also have Nitish Reddy and Heinrich Klaasen further down the orders, the reputation of the latter speaking for itself.
Lucknow started this season with a loss against the Delhi Capitals, a match that they should have won with DC losing 5 wickets for just 65 runs, chasing 210. But Ashutosh Sharma’s heroics took the match away from LSG’s inexperienced pace bowling unit. On Thursday too, LSG will be without Akash Deep and Mayank Yadav while Mohsin Khan is out for the season which might spell doom for their bowlers in front of a SRH batting lineup who are spitting fire. In a small ray of hope, they have Avesh Khan back but they’ll also need their captain Rishabh Pant, who scored a duck on his lSG debut, to come good.

Harshal Patel, a name synonymous with death-over mastery in the Indian Premier League (IPL), boasts two prestigious Purple Cap awards. This rare Indian seamer has carved a niche for himself with his deceptive slower balls and a signature dipping delivery reminiscent of Dwayne Bravo. However, despite his undeniable talent and statistical achievements, Harshal has faced a barrage of online trolling.
Haryana coach Amarjit Kaypee, in an interview with The Indian Express, emphasized the unique artistry behind Harshal’s bowling. “That is art, how he rolls his wrist, that is his art,” Kaypee stated, highlighting the skill that sets Harshal apart. This “art” refers to Harshal’s ability to deceive batsmen with his variations, particularly his dipping delivery that changes altitude, a technique that has earned him considerable success in the IPL.
Despite his on-field success, Harshal Patel has been a target for online trolls. Kaypee addressed this, saying, “Trolling people have the right to say anything; you can’t stop anybody from giving their views. He (Harshal) is mentally very, very strong. He is always focused on what he wants to do, and he is doing what is required for the game.” This highlights Harshal’s mental fortitude and his ability to remain focused amidst criticism. (READ MORE)
