LSG vs GT Dream11 Prediction, Playing 11, Fantasy Cricket Tips: 26th Match, IPL 2025
The first match of the Saturday double-header is set to be an exciting contest between Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans, and it will be played at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, the home ground of LSG.
Welcome to our LSG vs GT Dream11 Prediction, fantasy cricket tips and match preview.
Let’s start with Lucknow Super Giants. They’ve played 5 matches, won 3, and lost 2, placing them at 5th on the points table with 6 points.
What’s important to note is that they’re coming into this match with back-to-back wins, which has really helped them build momentum.
They beat Mumbai Indians by 12 runs and then edged past Kolkata Knight Riders by 4 runs, both tight games that tested their temperament.
The team finally seems to be finding the right balance, especially with their overseas players settling into their roles.
While Rishabh Pant, the skipper, is yet to fire with the bat, players like Aiden Markram, Mitchell Marsh, and Nicholas Pooran have kept the scoreboard ticking with solid contributions.
Another standout performer has been Digvesh Singh Rathi, whose spin bowling has turned heads, not just for his control, but also for his animated wicket celebrations that have caught the media’s attention.
One concern for LSG, however, remains their injury-hit pace attack. A few key seamers are still not fully fit, including Mayank Yadav, who is yet to return at full capacity. His comeback could further strengthen the bowling unit in the games ahead.
Now coming to Gujarat Titans, they’ve been nothing short of dominant since their opening loss to Punjab Kings by 11 runs. Since then, they’ve won 4 games in a row and are currently sitting at the top of the points table with 8 points.
In their most recent game, they absolutely dismantled Rajasthan Royals, winning by 58 runs, which shows how well-rounded and in-form this team is.
Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler have been brilliant with the bat, regularly giving GT a strong start or stabilizing the innings when needed.
While Shubman Gill hasn’t quite found that consistency yet, his presence at the top still keeps the opposition cautious.
Their bowling has been very effective too, with R. Sai Kishore and Mohammed Siraj leading the charge.
Rashid Khan, although slightly below his usual lethal self, was impressive in the last game.
However, he may need to adjust his strategy going forward to regain his full impact, especially with teams starting to play him out cautiously.
With both teams in good form, LSG on a winning streak and GT sitting confidently at the top, this clash in Lucknow is expected to be intense and tactical.
The surface here tends to be slower, so bowlers with variations and spinners might play a bigger role than usual.

The pitch at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow is known to be slow and bowler-friendly, especially as the match progresses.
It’s not the kind of surface where batters can walk in and start playing aggressive shots right away.
The slowness of the wicket helps spinners and bowlers who use cutters or change of pace.
However, it’s not impossible to score runs here. Batters who show patience, rotate the strike, and build their innings can still put up a solid score. Timing becomes more important than power, and partnerships are key.
Expect a low-to-mid scoring game unless a set batter capitalizes late in the innings.
Teams winning the toss might prefer batting first, especially considering how difficult chasing has been on this surface.

Weather Report of Lucknow
There’s a 15% chance of rain, but nothing too threatening at this point, so we should still get a full match unless conditions suddenly change.
The temperature will hover around 31°C, and with 54% humidity, it’ll feel a bit muggy on the field.
These conditions could slightly favor spinners and slower bowlers, especially if the pitch starts gripping more under the lights.
