Shubman Gill-Sai Sudarshan duo has a golden opportunity to write history, this will be the first time in IPL
Shubman Gill-Sai Sudharsan on Verge of Creating History: In IPL 2025, Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans are to compete on Thursday. While Sai Sudarshan and Shubman Gill are just one step away from creating history, Rishabh Pant will try to make a positive end of a bad season. Let me tell you, Gujarat Titans have already qualified for the playoffs, while Lucknow is out of the race of knockout. However, Gujarat will be eyeing finish in the top-2, so that it has at least two opportunities to reach the finals.
Gill-Sadarshan will join the pages of history
This season Gill and Sudarshan have scored a total of 839 runs in 12 innings at an average of 76.3. In his previous match, he shared an unbeaten 205 -run partnership chasing the target against Delhi Capitals. The pair is now just 100 runs away from breaking the record of the highest runs (939) scored by any pair in a season in IPL history. He has already set a record of the most runs scored by an Indian pair in a season. There are two league matches of Gujarat. Gill and Sudarshan have a golden opportunity to write history.
Butler durable in the top order of Gujarat Titans, also raised!
Playing at number 3 for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025, Joss Butler has shown that he is equally impressive not only in the opening, but also in the middle order. Butler has scored 500 runs in 11 innings this season at an average of 71.4 and a strike rate of 164. This is his best average in IPL so far. He has crossed the 500 -run figure for the third time in IPL history. So far, he has scored five half -centuries.
Even affordable, deadly – Krishna became the ‘famous’ weapon of GT!
The famous Krishna is playing the most spectacular season of his career in IPL 2025. He has taken 21 wickets so far, which is the highest by any bowler in this season – jointly with Noor Ahmed. Famous is not only on top in terms of wickets, but also the second most affordable fast bowler after Jasprit Bumrah among the bowlers who have thrown more than 20 overs. Their economy rate is only 7.9. Interestingly, they throw out most of the over powerplay, yet their name is at the top among those who put dot balls.
Excessive dependence on foreign batsmen
LSG completely trusted foreign batsmen in its top 3 this season and initially got the benefit of it. Aden Marrakash, Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Puran have crossed the 400 -run mark. But as soon as these three do not score, LSG’s batting also shatters. Apart from these three batsmen, only Ayush Badauni has been successful in scoring runs to some extent. He has scored a total of 329 runs. Apart from this, no batsman did well in the middle order.
Pant bhai, understand the matter, now you have to come in form
IPL 2025 has proved to be very disappointing for Pant so far. Throughout the season, he has scored only 135 runs in 11 innings, the average has been just 12.3 and he could not even touch the double figure seven times. Pant has played more than 100 balls this season, but his name is the lowest strike rate (100) and the lowest batting, and the name of IPL 2025 (12.3).
Even more worrying is that the second worst average of a batsman captain in IPL history is also now in the name of Pant. Eoin Morgan has only a bad average from him, who scored runs at an average of 11.1 in IPL 2021.
