Rishabh Pant and Co -march IPL 2025 playoff berths

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) has done very well since joining the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2022. In the last three years, he has made the playoffs twice. Given that they do not have heritage or those big names, LSG’s performance has been very good.

This year, Lucknow would like to get your hands on that silver vessel. Of course, you have to start walking before running. LSG first needs to reach IPL 2025 playoffs and then set your eyes on the trophy.

IPL 2025 performance so far

As of April 19, LSG is one of the two teams, who have played 8 of their 14 group matches. And they have a record of 5-3. To determine how well they can play in the remaining matches, one should analyze their performance so far.

Victory: SRH (in 9th position), Mi (in 7th place), KKR (6th position), GT (1 rank), RR (8th)

Loss: DC (in 2nd place), PBK (3 rank), CSK (10th in 10th)

LSG has a mixed bag of results. He has defeated a truly strong side, Gujarat Titans (GT), and lost a really close match for Delhi Capital (DC) by 1 wicket. These two matches suggest that they can set foot with the best teams. However, he has also lost to Chennai Super Kings (CSK), who has been the worst team of the IPL 2025 season. In short, they have beaten the teams, who have ranked the lower and lost to the ranked sides.

IPL 2025 Playoff: LSG Eligibility Scenario

16 points usually guarantee your IPL 2025 playoff qualifications. And LSG will be a target for this. Last year, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) qualified with 14 points, but in 2022 and 2023, 16 points were cutoff for the final four. This means that they 3 of their remaining 6 matches need to win To confirm their location.

Despite not having a good house, it is quite easy to have them, 2-2 records in their home ground, Ekna Cricket Stadium. They face two top sides like DC and RCB at home. It will not be easy to beat them. But his last match is against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), who virtually knocks.

Remaining matches

Home: DC (22 April), RCB (9 May), SRH (18 May)

away, MI (27 April), PBKS (4 May), GT (14 May)

If they manage defeating one of DC, SRH, or RCB, it would mean they are doing well. Away from home, Mumbai Indians (MI), Punjab Kings (PBK) and GT. This means, in reality, They need to defeat the aspects worse than those aspects, like SRH and Mi, and then one of the other four teams.

Mayank Yadav has returned, even if he has not played yet. Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Digwesh Rathi, Aiden Markram, Michel Marsh, Ayush Badoni and Nicholas Goran are in good touch. And Rishabh Pant can only be better than here. Among all, LSG has a very realistic opportunity to qualify for IPL 2025 playoffs.
