Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are staring down the barrel as they take on the in-form Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in Match 30 of IPL 2025 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. Reeling from five straight defeats, the five-time champions are desperate for a turnaround to keep their playoff hopes alive.
CSK’s campaign has been marred by a fragile middle-order, heavy dependence on their top-order, and the rare embarrassment of losing three consecutive games at their fortress, the MA Chidambaram Stadium. The return of veteran skipper MS Dhoni, following Ruturaj Gaikwad’s injury, has yet to spark a revival. With the team languishing at the bottom of the table with just one win from six matches, today’s fixture becomes a must-win for the Yellow Army.
Meanwhile, Lucknow Super Giants are enjoying a purple patch. After a dominant six-wicket win over Gujarat Titans, LSG sit comfortably at third on the points table with four wins in six matches. Led by a balanced squad and riding high on momentum, the Rishabh Pant-led side will be aiming to tighten their grip on a top-four spot.
LSG vs CSK: Head-to-Head Record
In their relatively short rivalry, Lucknow Super Giants have held the upper hand over Chennai Super Kings. The two sides have met five times in IPL history. LSG have come out on top in three of those contests, while one game ended without a result. CSK, despite their pedigree and experience, have managed to win only once against the Lucknow-based franchise.
The trend highlights LSG’s growing stature in the league and CSK’s struggle to find consistency against newer franchises. As both teams clash again under the lights in Lucknow, CSK will be looking to break the pattern and restore their pride, while LSG aim to further establish their dominance over one of the IPL’s most successful sides.
