LSG vs PBKS Dream11 Prediction, 13th Match – IPL 2025, Fantasy Cricket Tips
The IPL 2025 is heating up as teams battle it out to climb the table and move closer to lifting the IPL title.
Hello and Welcome to the LSG vs PBKS Dream11 Prediction, where Lucknow Super Giants are set to face Punjab Kings in the 13th match of the tournament.
The match will be played at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, a venue that always keeps things interesting with its variable pitch conditions.
Lucknow Super Giants started their campaign with a nail-biting 1-wicket loss to Delhi Capitals, but bounced back strongly with a solid 5-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad.
They’ve played two matches, won one and lost one, and currently sit at 3rd position on the points table with 2 points.
One big positive for LSG has been the form of Nicholas Pooran, who has looked in control and consistent with the bat in both games.
However, the same can’t be said about Aiden Markram, who’s failed to fire at the top, which could be a growing concern for the management.
Adding to their worries are the injuries to key bowlers, forcing them to rotate their attack and experiment early in the season, something no team prefers.
Punjab Kings, on the other hand, have played just one match so far, but it was a successful outing, they defeated Gujarat Titans by 11 runs and looked fairly balanced. They are currently at 5th position on the table with 2 points.
Shreyas Iyer has been solid both as a batter and a leader, guiding PBKS well in their opening match.
However, Glenn Maxwell’s form is a bit of a concern. If he doesn’t get going soon, the team might have to rethink his role or position in the lineup.
Both teams will come into this match with different sets of strengths and challenges, and it promises to be another exciting IPL battle in Lucknow.

The pitch at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow is known to be slow and challenging for batters, especially as the match progresses.
It generally favors the bowlers, particularly spinners and those with variations.
However, the powerplay overs will be crucial for the batting side.
With the new ball, shot-making becomes easier, and that’s when batters will look to cash in before the wicket starts to grip and slow down.
Timing the ball gets tougher in the second half, so teams might prefer batting first and putting runs on the board.
Weather Report of Lucknow
There is no chance of rain, so we’re all set for a smooth, uninterrupted game.
The temperature is expected to be around 29°C, with low humidity at 20%, making it a fairly pleasant evening for cricket.

Team News
Lucknow Super Giants
Looking at Aiden Markram’s poor form, Lucknow Super Giants might consider giving Matthew Breetzke a chance in the playing XI to strengthen their top order.
He brings fresh energy and could provide more stability at the top.
On the other hand, Shahbaz Ahmed might be brought in to replace Abdul Samad, especially if LSG wants more control in the middle overs with both bat and ball.
Shahbaz offers a better balance as a spin-bowling all-rounder, which could be valuable on a slower Lucknow pitch.
Punjab Kings
Looking at the slow and spin-friendly conditions of the Lucknow wicket, Harpreet Brar could be a smart inclusion in the playing XI for the Punjab Kings.
He might come in place of Vijaykumar Vyshak, especially if the team wants to go with an extra spinner who can also contribute with the bat.
His ability to bowl tight overs on sluggish tracks could be really useful in this match.
