RCB vs RR Match Prediction & Analysis The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are set to face the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Match 42 of IPL 2025 on April 24 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.​ RCB has three wins in the last five games and is currently in third place with 10 points. In contrast, RR has lost four out of the last five games and has four points in eight games. ​In their most recent outing on April 20, 2025, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) showcased a dominant performance against Punjab Kings (PBKS). After opting to field first, RCB’s bowlers restricted PBKS to a modest total of 157/6, with notable contributions from Suyash Sharma and Krunal Pandya, who claimed two wickets each. RCB’s innings was anchored by a commanding 103-run partnership between Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal. RCB won the game by 7 wickets. In their most recent match on April 19, 2025, the Rajasthan Royals (RR) endured a narrow 2-run defeat against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). This loss marked RR’s fourth consecutive defeat, highlighting their struggles in closing out matches despite strong individual performances. Yashaswi Jaiswal scored 74 runs in the game while Hasaranga picked up two wickets. TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview RCB’s top order has been instrumental in setting strong foundations this season. Virat Kohli leads the team’s run-scoring with 322 runs at an average of 64. He has 4 half-centuries. He will be the batter to watch out for. Phil Salt complements Kohli with his aggressive approach, amassing 213 runs at a strike rate of 178, the highest among RCB’s top-order batters. Salt’s aggressive 65 off 33 balls, featuring five fours and six sixes, earned him the Player of the Match award in RCB’s last game against RR. Devdutt Paddikal will come at number three.

Patidar has 221 runs in 7 innings at a strike rate of 151. Tim David has played an impactful role for RCB this season. In 5 innings, he has 142 runs at a strike rate of 194.52. He has been out only once in these innings. Sharma and Livingstone have a collective strike rate of 133. Sharma has taken 9 catches behind the stumps while Livingstone has 2 wickets with the ball too. Rajasthan Royals Preview ​Rajasthan Royals (RR) will be without their captain and key batter, Sanju Samson, who recovering from an abdominal injury sustained during RR’s Super Over defeat to Delhi Capitals. This will be a major blow for RR as Samson is currently their second leading run-scorer with 223 runs at an economy of 143.58. Vaibhav Suryavanshi will continue to open with Yashaswi Jaiswal in his absence. 14-year-old Suryavanshi made a debut with a quickfire 34 off 20 balls, including three sixes, and shared an 85-run partnership with Yashasvi Jaiswal in the last game. Jaiswal will be the batter to watch out for. He has 307 runs with a strike rate of 140 and has scored 4 half-centuries. Nitish Rana will come at number three. Rana has a strike rate of 177. But he has failed to convert his fire into a big innings.

Jurel has 191 runs with a strike rate of 154. Meanwhile, Dubey, in limited appearances, has shown promise as a finisher—his 34* off 11 balls against SRH being a highlight—yet he lacks the exposure and consistency to be a dependable threat just yet.

Lucknow Super Giants vs Delhi Capitals, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Lucknow Super Giants vs Delhi Capitals 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 22, Tuesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Lucknow Super Giants haven’t managed to beat Delhi Capitals in their last three matchups, including once this season. Kolkata Knight Riders vs Gujarat Titans TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. LSG vs DC Match Prediction & Analysis Lucknow Super Giants take on Delhi Capitals in Match 40 of IPL 2025 this Tuesday at Ekana. LSG have surprised a few this season, picking up five wins from eight games, which puts them fifth on the table. DC, on the other hand, have had a strong run with five wins and just two losses, placing them second. TEAMS PREVIEW Lucknow Super Giants Preview Lucknow Super Giants weren’t on many people’s radar at the start, but five wins from eight have pushed them into the top four. Their latest was a nail-biter—edging past Rajasthan Royals by just two runs in Jaipur after defending 180 with sharp bowling at the death. What should give them more confidence is pulling that off, even though Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran weren’t at their best. Aiden Markram stepped up with 66 off 45 to lift the batting effort and helped them reach a competitive total. He’s found his rhythm over the season and now sits third on their run chart, scoring 274 in eight innings at a strike rate of 150. Marsh and Pooran have done the bulk of the scoring all season—Marsh has 299 from seven innings at 168, including four fifties. Pooran has led the way with 368 runs in eight matches, striking at 205.58. Delhi Capitals Preview Delhi Capitals have been one of the more consistent sides this season. With five wins from seven games, 10 points, and a net run rate of 0.589, they sit comfortably in second place. Their recent defeat to Gujarat Titans—by 7 wickets—won’t shake them too much. They stayed in the contest deep, and that’s something they’ll take forward. Their batting’s looked sharp. KL Rahul has been the anchor and the accelerator, smashing 266 runs in six innings at a strike rate of 158.33. He’s played the situations smartly and shifted gears when needed. Tristan Stubbs has stepped up when it matters, especially at the back end of games. He’s DC’s second-highest scorer right now, followed by Abishek Porel. Down the order, Ashutosh Sharma has chipped in at just the right times—his late-over strike rate of 178.94 has turned matches. Bowling-wise, Mitchell Starc has been a bit expensive, but he’s still delivered with 10 wickets from seven outings.  Weather Conditions At Ekana, it’s usually smarter for batters to take a few balls to get their eye in before going hard. Once they’ve settled, scoring isn’t all that difficult. The surface tends to slow down and get a bit unpredictable as the game moves on, which brings spinners into play during the middle overs. Pacers won’t get much help off the deck, so mixing it up with slower balls and cutters will be their best shot at damage control.  The Lucknow heat and humidity could take a toll, but at least there’s no rain on the radar. LSG vs DC Pitch Report First-innings totals at Ekana usually sit near 166 on average. KKR set the highest score here last season with 235/6 against LSG, winning by a massive 98 runs. With how the pitch has behaved in IPL 2025’s first four games, sides batting first should target 190-plus to stay competitive. Toss: To Bowl Three of the four matches played at Ekana in IPL 2025 have been won by the chasing side, indicating clearly that this venue favors the chasing side.

The ten-team tournament has reached the middle of the league stages with Gujarat Titans, Delhi Capitals, Punjab Kings, and Rohan Charan’s Bangalore acquiring the top four spots in that sequence.

In defence, they restricted the Rajasthan Royals to just 159 runs, winning the game by 58 runs. Prasit Krishna took three wickets for 24 runs in that game.

Gujarat Titans vs Delhi Capitals, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Gujarat Titans vs Delhi Capitals 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 19, Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 15:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Delhi Capitals looking to continue the dominance against Gujarat Titans Karachi Kings vs Quetta Gladiators TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. GT vs DC Match Prediction & Analysis Gujarat Titans will take on Delhi Capitals in the 35th game of the Indian Premier League 2025 at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. The festival of cricket is in full flow in the form of the Indian Premier League in India. The 10-team tournament will have 74 games and is currently at the mid-point of the league stage. Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans are currently placed 1st and 2nd in the points table, respectively. TEAMS PREVIEW Gujarat Titans Preview Despite starting the season with a loss against Punjab Kings at home, Gujarat Titans rose in the points table ranking with four consecutive wins before a loss in the sixth game against Lucknow Supergiants. It was the high-scoring game against Punjab Kings, where Gujarat Titans almost chased down a huge total of 244. They fell short eventually by just 11 runs. Sai Kishore was the best bowler with 3 wickets for 30 runs in that game. In the next four games, Gujarat Titans registered four consecutive and comprehensive victories against Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Rajasthan Royals. They have mainly two people to thank for this superb turnaround. First is Sai Sudharsan, who has scored 329 runs in 6 games and has done the bulk of the scoring at the top of the order. The second one is the new entry in the team, Mohammad Siraj, who has been in excellent form, taking 10 wickets in the last six matches. He was single-handedly responsible for the win against his former team, RCB, where he took 3 wickets for just 19, claiming the man of the match award.  Delhi Capitals Preview What a win it was for Delhi Capitals last night against Rajasthan Royals. First, they were able to tie the game that they should have lost, thanks to the superb last over from Mitchell Starc. And then, they won the super over with 2 balls to spare, registering their 5th win of the season in just 6 games. With this win, Delhi Capitals are currently at the top of the table with 10 points and a superb net run rate of +0.744. It is perhaps the way Delhi Capitals started this season that set the tone for a superb IPL so far in 2025. In the opening game against LSG, DC looked down and out, chasing a big total of 210. At one point, they were 6 down for 113 runs in the 13th over, and the win looked a distant probability. However, a rearguard effort by Ashutosh Sharma, who scored 66 not out in just 31 balls, helped Delhi Capitals get a win in the opening game of the season by one wicket and with just three balls. Delhi Capitals made a superb pick of KL Rahul in the recent auctions. His form has been instrumental in DC’s standing at the top of the table. KL Rahul was the man of the match against CSK for his innings of 77 off just 51 balls that helped defeat CSK by 25 runs. Against RCB, his former team, Rahul scored not out 93 in just 53 balls and took two catches to help DC get a comfortable win by six wickets. He is DC’s top scorer this season and looks in sublime touch. Mitchell Starc has been among wickets and, just like KL Rahul, has a couple of man of the match awards against SRH and RR. Weather Conditions The weather on the match day at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, is expected to be very warm with plenty of sunshine. It’s going to be very dry. The temperature is expected to range between a high of 42°C and a low of 26°C. There is no significant chance of rain on the match day. GT vs DC Pitch Report The Narendra Modi Stadium, located in Motera, Ahmedabad, is the largest cricket stadium in the world, with a total seating capacity of about 130,000 spectators. The venue boasts state-of-the-art facilities. It is the home venue for the Gujarat cricket team and the Gujarat Titans in the IPL. Established in 1983, the venue has hosted several tests, ODIs, and T20 matches, including the ICC Cricket World Cup final in 2023 between India and Australia. Toss: To Bat The teams batting first have won all three games this season at Ahmedabad. It is a high-scoring ground where the highest score this season was 243 by Punjab Kings, followed by 217 and 196 by Gujarat Titans batting first. Looking at the trend, the team winning the toss should bat first here and look to post a big total on the board.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Punjab Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Punjab Kings𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 18, Friday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 17:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Punjab Kings’ test to end the Chinnaswamy jinx  Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Punjab Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. RCB vs PBKS Match Prediction & Analysis We are in the midseason of the Indian Premier League 2025 and teams are fighting hard to improve their position on the points table. We expect a cracker of a contest where hosts Royal Challengers Bengaluru face the Punjab Kings in the 34th game. Both teams have 8 points after six games. A win here will take them to the top of the points table. The Royal Challengers defeated the Rajasthan Royals in their last game and look confident. The Punjab Kings will look to build on their momentum after a win against the Kolkata Knight Riders.  The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have won the last three games against the Punjab Kings, which will make the team confident. They play at home and know the conditions well on this wicket. The Punjab Kings have a poor record at this venue, which can play on their minds. Their batsmen struggled in the last game. Whether the Kings can overcome the odds and do well in this contest remains to be seen. TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Rajat Patidar’s team has impressed everyone with its consistency and dominating performances this season. They defeated the Rajasthan Royals in the last game by 9 wickets. It was an excellent show from the batting lineup as they clinically chased down the big total. Punjab Kings have done well this year, and Patidar would like his team to play aggressively and use the home advantage to move to the top spot on the points table.  Phillip Salt is taking on the bowlers aggressively and will look to deliver a strong start in this game with Virat Kohli. Devdutt Padikkal will look to steer the innings in the middle order and add runs with Liam Livingstone and Jitesh Sharma. The side has depth in the batting lineup and expects runs from Tim David, Krunal Pandya, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.  Bhuvneshwar Kumar did well with the new ball in the last game and must get early breakthroughs with Yash Dayal. Krunal Pandya is troubling the batters, and he must keep up the pressure in the middle overs with Josh Hazlewood. The side expects good spells from Suyash Sharma and Liam Livingstone in the supporting role, as the Punjab Kings have good hitters. Punjab Kings Preview Shreyas Iyer will be proud of his bowlers and how they foxed the Kolkata Knight Riders in the last game. In a game where the batting lineup failed miserably, the bowling attack pulled a win out of thin air, winning the game by 16 runs. Iyer will expect a better show from his batsmen in this game. They have struggled against RCB, and Iyer would look to improve this record.  Priyansh Arya has been the leading batter for the team this season and must deliver a good start in this game with Prabhsimran Singh. Shreyas Iyer will look to anchor the innings and do well in the middle order with Josh Inglis and Nehal Wadhera. The team expects quick runs in the lower middle order from Glenn Maxwell, Suryansh Shedge, and Marco Jansen.  The bowling attack put up one of the best bowling performances in IPL history, and the team will be confident. Marco Jansen and Xavier Bartlett must get early breakthroughs to put the team in a strong position. Yuzvendra Chahal bowled a dream spell in the last game, and he will look to keep the scoring under check with Arshdeep Singh. Glenn Maxwell and Suryansh Shedge add balance to this attack.  Weather Conditions We expect another warm evening in Bengaluru. The flat wicket is easy for the batsmen. There is very little assistance for the bowlers. The average first innings score at this venue is 173 runs. The side batting first would need a minimum of 200 runs to feel safe on this track. A placid pitch, fast outfield, and shorter boundaries make M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, one of the best T20 venues in the world. We have seen several high-scoring encounters at this venue, and batters find it easy to play on this surface where there is little support for the bowlers. Toss: To Bowl The side chasing the score has won four out of the last five games. The surface has been slower than usual, and setting up a total here isn’t easy, as we see big run chases at this venue. Both teams would take a cue from their previous wins and opt to bowl first.

Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 17, Thursday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 17:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai City, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 The last two matches between Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Wankhede have ended in solid wins for Mumbai. Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. MI vs SRH Match Prediction & Analysis Mumbai Indians face Sunrisers Hyderabad at Wankhede in Match 33 of IPL 2025 on Thursday night. Both teams have found some rhythm after stumbling early in the season and will be looking to build on recent wins. The pitch should favour the batters, and with the kind of hitters both sides have, a run-fest seems likely. MI might just have the edge thanks to the home advantage.  TEAMS PREVIEW Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians bounced back in style after a patchy run, pulling off a thrilling 12-run win over second-placed Delhi Capitals. Batting first, they put up 205-5, and then held their nerve with the ball to keep Delhi to 193. This was the kind of team performance MI had been missing, with nearly everyone stepping up. Tilak Varma stood out with a cracking 58 off 33 — his second straight fifty — and with the next match at Wankhede, where he tends to do well, that’s a good sign. That said, the top order still hasn’t really clicked. Will Jacks and Ryan Rickelton have had their moments, but haven’t delivered anything game-changing. Rohit Sharma is yet to find rhythm, so expectations around him are muted for now. Suryakumar Yadav has carried the batting so far. He’s collected 239 runs from six games at an average of 47.80 and a strike rate of 149.37. He remains central to MI’s chances. Hardik Pandya finding some rhythm again helps — he looked sharp finishing off the innings last game and paired well with Naman Dhir, who smashed an unbeaten 38 off 17. Pandya’s also contributed with the ball, picking up 10 wickets while going at 8.81 an over. Deepak Chahar has chipped in with five wickets and a decent economy. Boult continues to be dangerous with the new ball and in the final overs. Jasprit Bumrah had an off day last match, but his presence is still a major plus. Alongside Boult at the death, he gives MI a solid edge in closing out games. Santner has kept things steady in the middle, and Vignesh Puthur has quietly picked up six wickets so far. Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview After dropping four games in a row, Sunrisers Hyderabad bounced back with a bang, pulling off a wild win over Punjab Kings at home. They chased down a massive 246 in just 18.3 overs, losing only two wickets. Abhishek Sharma went ballistic, hammering 141 off just 55 balls – the third-highest score in IPL history. Travis Head chipped in with 66 off 37, and their 171-run opening stand in just 12.2 overs completely flattened the chase. This is what SRH can do when their top order clicks. If Abhishek and Head go hard early, they’ve got Klaasen, Ishan Kishan, and Nitish Kumar ready to keep the scoreboard ticking and the boundaries flowing. Aniket Verma has turned into a reliable contributor – he’s been finding the fence in the middle and late overs and has an eye-catching strike rate of 183 to back that up. They’ll love batting at Wankhede, and MI’s attack is going to be under the pump. Shami and Cummins need to hit their stride fast – both have been off the mark lately, bleeding runs at moments that have hurt the team. Harshal Patel has been getting the job done, picking up middle-over wickets with his slower stuff and variations. Eshan Malinga has slotted in well too, always looking dangerous with the ball. Weather Conditions Wankhede usually offers a flat pitch that favors batters, but there’s often some early movement under lights, especially with a fresh ball. Fast bowlers can get a bit of help up top before conditions tilt toward the batters. Once that early threat is dealt with, scoring tends to get a lot easier. Spinners, on the other hand, don’t get much to work with—there’s barely any turn, and the surface doesn’t give them much grip. The deck should stay hard and true, which makes things tough for anyone relying on slower deliveries. Expect hot and sticky weather in Mumbai, but rain shouldn’t be an issue. MI vs SRH Pitch Report Wankhede Stadium typically produces first-innings scores around 170 on average. RCB set the IPL benchmark at this venue back in 2015, smashing 235-1 against MI. This season has seen extremes – 116 one match, then 221-5 the next. Given the ground’s reputation for high scores, however, neither side will feel safe unless they push beyond 200. Toss: To Bowl Chasing under lights is usually the favourable option at Wankhede, and both teams are likely to look to field first here.

Punjab Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Punjab Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 15, Tuesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium, Chandigarh, India​𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Shreyas Iyer is Punjab’s man in form and has a fantastic record against KKR – 456 runs in 14 matches at an average of 41.45 and a strike rate of 150.49. Punjab Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders​ TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. PBKS vs KKR Match Prediction & Analysis Match 31 of IPL 2025 has Punjab Kings (PK) facing Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Chandigarh this Tuesday. Punjab have dropped to sixth after losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad, but they’re still viewed as one of the more dangerous sides this season because of their batting. KKR, last year’s winners, haven’t had the easiest run either, sitting even with three wins and three losses. Punjab will hope home conditions work in their favor, though KKR have enough in the tank to make this a tough one. TEAMS PREVIEW Punjab Kings Preview Punjab Kings have had a decent run so far—three wins, two losses, and they’re sitting sixth on the table. Their last outing was a wild one, losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets in a game that saw 491 runs scored. Punjab smashed 245-6 but still couldn’t drag it past the finish line, with Hyderabad chasing it down with nearly two overs to spare. That pitch in Hyderabad was an absolute belter, and Punjab won’t want to overthink that result. Up top, Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh have been doing the job early, setting the tone in the powerplay. Shreyas Iyer has been rock solid at number three, hammering 250 runs in five knocks at a strike rate of 208.33. He’s looked in complete control and will be expected to carry that form forward. That said, not everything’s been smooth. Nehal Wadhera hasn’t quite found rhythm, and Glenn Maxwell has barely made a dent this season. Their lack of runs has made the middle overs a bit of a dead zone. Bringing Josh Inglis in could give the lineup a bit more bite. Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders haven’t managed back-to-back wins in IPL 2025, but they’ve avoided back-to-back defeats too. After three wins and three losses, they’ve been making smart adjustments along the way to stay in the fight. Their latest result — an 8-wicket thumping of Chennai Super Kings on their turf — pushed them up to fourth in the standings. The batting unit looks settled, though Quinton de Kock’s inconsistency hasn’t helped. Narine has made up for it with explosive starts, scoring at a rate of 190. Ajinkya Rahane, batting at No. 3, has been their most reliable contributor with 204 runs in six games at a strike rate of 154.54. A smart move last game was sending Rinku Singh in at No. 4 — something they should’ve done earlier. He’s much more impactful when he has enough deliveries to work with. On the flip side, Andre Russell is still looking for rhythm with the bat, and Ramandeep Singh has barely made a mark. Venkatesh Iyer had one decent knock but hasn’t done much otherwise. Weather Conditions The pitch at Mullanpur has been excellent for batting, particularly in the first half. The ball comes on nicely to the bat, and batters can hit through the line to get their boundaries. Spinners will come into play once the pitch slows down a little in the second half, but it won’t be too dramatic.  The weather in Mullanpur will be hot and hazy, and it won’t be easy on the players. There is no forecast of rain, so we will get a full match. In the two matches played at Mullanpur in IPL 2025, teams batting first have posted 205-4 and 219-6, respectively, and won the game quite comfortably in the end. Expect another high-scoring game with the team batting first eyeing a total of around 200-210 runs. Toss: To Bat Both the previous games of IPL 2025 held at Mullanpur, Chandigarh, have been won comfortably by the team batting first. This indicates that batting first is the safer option here.

Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : ​​​​​​Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 14, Monday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Chennai Super Kings have struggled against Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL, winning just one of their four meetings. , Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. LSG vs CSK Match Prediction & Analysis Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) face off against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 30th match of IPL 2025 this Monday in Lucknow. LSG have punched above their weight so far with four wins and two losses, landing them in third place. CSK kicked off their campaign with a win but haven’t been able to recover after that, slumping to five straight defeats and falling to ninth place. With home support behind them and CSK struggling to find their rhythm, LSG look better placed going into this one. TEAMS PREVIEW Lucknow Super Giants Preview Not many backed Lucknow Super Giants when the season began, but they’ve pulled off four wins from six and now sit third in the standings. They’re coming off a 6-wicket win over Gujarat Titans at the Ekana, where they chased 181 with three balls to spare. What’ll encourage them most is doing it without Mitchell Marsh, who was unavailable due to personal reasons. It’s still unclear if he’ll be back for the next game. Nicholas Pooran (61 off 34) and Aiden Markram (58 off 31) were the standouts in the last match, both playing impactful knocks to ease the chase. Pooran is now leading the IPL 2025 run charts—349 runs in six games at an average of 69.80 and a blistering strike rate of 215.43. Markram’s growing in confidence too, up to 202 runs with a strike rate of 153.03. If Marsh returns, LSG will have a stacked top order.  But the rest of the batting hasn’t quite held up. Rishabh Pant’s struggled badly—only 40 runs in five innings—and the pressure has crept into the middle order. David Miller has looked out of rhythm too, unable to find any timing. Chennai Super Kings Preview Things are going downhill fast for Chennai Super Kings, who just suffered their fifth loss in a row—this time a brutal 8-wicket defeat to Kolkata Knight Riders at home. It was a sorry effort from the five-time champs, putting up just 103-9 after being sent in. KKR chased it with ease in only 10.1 overs. Regular captain Ruturaj Gaikwad missing the rest of the season with injury only adds to CSK’s headaches. He was their most reliable batter, and without him, their top order looks shaky. Conway and Ravindra have to step up now, but so far, it hasn’t been convincing. Ravindra hasn’t been able to build a proper innings, and Conway’s been hot and cold. The middle-order isn’t helping either. Rahul Tripathi and Vijay Shankar have failed to build momentum after early wickets, and haven’t been able to accelerate either. Weather Conditions At Ekana, batters might need to ease into their innings instead of swinging from ball one, though scoring won’t be too tough once they settle. The pitch tends to get slower and two-paced as the match goes on, which should suit the spinners in the middle overs. Fast bowlers will need to rely on variations—cutters and slower deliveries—to limit the damage.  The Lucknow heat and humidity will be a factor, but there’s no rain in the forecast to worry about. LSG vs CSK Pitch Report The average first innings score at Ekana Cricket Stadium tends to hover around 166. Last season, Kolkata Knight Riders’ 235 for 6 against Lucknow Super Giants was the highest team total here, a game they game by 98 runs.

Delhi Capitals vs Mumbai Indians, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

Delhi Capitals vs Mumbai Indians, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : ​​​​​​Delhi Capitals vs Mumbai Indians 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 13, Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 7:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Arun Jaitley Stadium, Central Delhi, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 The last time these two teams met at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi Capitals secured a 10-run win over Mumbai Indians in a high-scoring game. Delhi Capitals vs Mumbai Indians TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. DC vs MI Match Prediction & Analysis Delhi Capitals take on Mumbai Indians at home in Match 29 of IPL 2025 this Sunday night. DC are on a roll with four wins in a row and now sit second on the table. They haven’t lost a game yet this season and look well put-together. MI, on the other hand, have struggled—just one win from five outings has left them in eighth place. Based on current form, Delhi clearly have the upper hand. TEAMS PREVIEW Delhi Capitals Preview Delhi Capitals are rolling this season. Four wins from four, 8 points in the bag, and a tidy NRR of +1.278 puts them second on the table. Their latest outing saw them ease past Royal Challengers Bengaluru by 6 wickets, chasing 164 with 13 balls left. It wasn’t all smooth sailing—DC were struggling at 58 for 4 in the 9th over. Then KL Rahul (93* off 53) and Tristan Stubbs (38* off 23) turned it around with a ruthless 111-run stand off just 55 balls. Rahul’s been the game-changer—185 runs in three innings at a strike rate of 169.72. He’s been calm, calculated, and explosive when needed—exactly what DC needed to solidify their batting. Jake Fraser-McGurk hasn’t quite clicked yet, but anyone who watched him last season knows he just needs one clean hit to flip a game. Ashutosh Sharma is making sure the lower order doesn’t fade—his clean striking in the final overs has already tilted a couple of games. Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians have had a tough run this IPL season. They’ve managed just one win so far and dropped four games, including a 12-run defeat at home against RCB while chasing 222. That said, they did fight hard in that chase—Tilak Varma smashed 56 off 29, and Hardik Pandya hammered 42 off just 15, but it wasn’t enough. One of MI’s main concerns is their inconsistent top order. Will Jacks and Ryan Rickelton have had a few good moments, but nothing that really turned a game. Rohit Sharma hasn’t hit his stride either, so expectations around him are low for now. Suryakumar Yadav has been one of the few bright spots—199 runs from five innings at an average of 50 and a strike rate north of 150. He’ll be central to how MI go in this one. Tilak and Hardik finding form again gives them more options.  Pandya’s also been doing the job with the ball, picking up 10 wickets at an economy of 8.57. Deepak Chahar has been steady too, with four wickets and decent control in his spells. Boult continues to be a threat early on with the new ball. Weather Conditions The pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium tends to be flat and quick to settle under lights. Expect a true surface where stroke-makers enjoy value for their shots, especially the square of the wicket. Spinners might get some grip as the game wears on, but it’s rarely dramatic, so expect batters to dominate the proceedings.  The weather in Delhi will be warm and humid, but clear of any rain. DC vs MI Pitch Report The average first innings score at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium sits at 170, but things got wild there last season. In just five games, teams crossed 200 eight times, with Sunrisers Hyderabad smashing 266-7 against Delhi Capitals—the highest of the lot. Another high-scoring game could be on the cards, though conditions this year haven’t offered many flat tracks. Both sides will likely aim for something in the 200-220 range. Toss: To Bat All five matches played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in IPL 2024 were won by the team batting first. Going by these numbers, its clear batting first is advantageous on this venue.

RR vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis The competition has touched the roof in the Indian Premier League 2025, where we see changes at the top of the points table with every game. The Rajasthan Royals will look to improve their position on the points table as they take on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the 28th game. RCB went down against the Delhi Capitals in their last game. The Rajasthan Royals also enter this game with a loss against the Gujarat Titans.  The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have their openers in good form and on a flat batting surface they will look to play to their strengths. The bowling attack also has bowlers suited for these conditions. The Rajasthan Royals’ bowlers have struggled this year, which will be challenging for the side against the force that RCB is. Both sides will look to move up on the points table, and we expect a close contest.  TEAMS PREVIEW Rajasthan Royals Preview Sanju Samson’s team must put the upset against the Gujarat Titans behind them. They bowled poorly and lost the game by 58 runs. The team has a strong batting lineup, but the bowling attack is inconsistent. It will be a tough challenge for the team against the Royal Challengers in this game. Samson expects a strong show from his bowlers in this game to improve its position on the table.  Sanju Samson must lead from the front and deliver a good start with Yashasvi Jaiswal, whose lack of form hurts the team. The middle order must play aggressively, and the team needs a strong show from Nitish Rana, Riyan Parag, and Dhruv Jurel. Shimron Hetmyer has done well in the lower middle order, and the team expects him to add quick runs in the game with Shubham Dubey.   Jofra Archer has found his form after struggling in the first few games. The team expects early wickets from him and Fazalhaq Farooqi. The team has struggled in the middle overs and needs good spells from Sandeep Sharma and Maheesh Theekshana. Sandeep Sharma and Riyan Parag must do well in the supporting role as the RCB batters will take them on.  Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Rajat Patidar was upset after his team’s loss in the last game against the Delhi Capitals. They had the game in the bag, but they had a poor bowling performance in the death overs, losing the game by 6 wickets. The team has a strong batting lineup, and Patidar expects a better show from his bowlers in this game to move up on the points table.  The side expects fireworks from Virat Kohli and Phillip Salt, as both players are in good form. They must take on Rajasthan’s bowlers, who are low on confidence. The middle order has struggled in a few games, and the team expects Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar, and Liam Livingstone to build big partnerships. The team has depth in the batting and expects quick runs from Jitesh Sharma, Krunal Pandya, and Tim David.  The bowlers failed to deliver the goods as a group in the last game. The team expects a good start with the new ball from Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yash Dayal. Josh Hazlewood and Suyash Sharma must pick wickets in the middle overs and trouble the batters. The side expects a good show in the supporting role from Krunal Pandya and Liam Livingstone. Weather Conditions We will see clear skies at Jaipur. It will be a good batting surface where batsmen can hit through the line. Bowlers will have a tough time on this wicket and must bowl well to get rewards. The average first-innings score is 161 runs, and team batting first would target 180 plus to feel comfortable on this surface. RR vs RCB Pitch Report Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur, is a batsman’s paradise. The wicket has true bounce and pace, allowing batters to hit through the line. Spinners enjoy bowling on this surface as the ball bounces and turns sharply. It is a tough wicket for the bowlers as the dryness doesn’t offer them much.  Toss: To Bowl Defending scores at this venue is tough. The wicket can be tricky to bat at the start of the game, but the batting conditions improve as the game progresses. The side won’t hesitate to bowl first and aim to restrict the opposition to a small total.
