Sunrisers Hyderabad, who are in good form, will look to keep winning when they face the weakened Lucknow Super Giants on Thursday, March 27. This IPL 2025 match at Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad is crucial for both teams. Sunrisers had a great win against Rajasthan Royals in their last match and want to keep the winning streak going. Meanwhile, the Capitals suffered a painful loss and need to figure out how to win early in the season.
Avesh Khan to return
The team’s premier pacer, Avesh Khan, is back in the squad after getting clearance from NCA. Due to injury, the player couldn’t make it into the squad for the first game. As he’s not back, the player is expected to make it into the playing XI for this match. He might replace Prince Yadav, the right-arm pacer who had an awful performance in the first match.

M Siddharth as impact player
M. Siddharth could come as an impact player. With weak bowling, LSG will be planning to focus more on bowling options against SRH and could go for Siddharth, who can give crucial breakthroughs. Talking about batting, they also have Abdul Samad, the player who has power-hitting abilities, but he might be shadowed by Ayush Badoni.
