In fact, they are currently on top of the points table, with 18 points from 12 matches. LSG have already been eliminated from the playoffs race, with 10 points from 12 games.

While GT have sealed a place in the playoffs, they would be keen to book a slot in the top two. Gujarat have won five of their last six matches in IPL 2025. In their previous match, they thumped a hapless Delhi Capitals (DC) by 10 wickets. Chasing a target of 200, they cruised home in 19 overs as Sai Sudharsan (108* off 61) and skipper Shubman Gill (93* off 53) featured in a sensational stand of 205*.

While Lucknow have been eliminated from the tournament, they would be keen to end their four-match losing streak. In their previous game, they went down to Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by six wickets. They failed to defend a total of 205 as SRH got home in 18.2 overs. LSG would be without the services of Digvesh Rathi for Thursday's match since he has been handed a one-match suspension.

In the head-to-head battle, GT have a 4-2 lead over LSG. Ahead of the IPL 2025 clash on Thursday, we look at some milestones that could be achieved by players from both franchises.
