After storming into the IPL 2025 playoffs with a commanding victory over Delhi Capitals, the Gujarat Titans (GT) return to their home fortress for Match 61 — a key fixture that could determine their chances of securing a top-two finish. On the other hand, the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) arrive in Ahmedabad playing for pride after their playoff hopes were dashed in their previous outing.
While the playoffs race is sealed in terms of teams, the battle for the top two continues — and GT, with two games remaining at home, are firmly in the hunt. LSG, however, will look to disrupt those ambitions while giving a few players from their bench some much-needed game time.

Ahmedabad has consistently dished out batting-friendly tracks, particularly in the first innings. The venue has large square boundaries but offers good pace and carry, which brings fast bowlers into the game — especially the “hit-the-deck” variety like Prasidh Krishna. Batting second has seen some struggle during the PowerPlay but eases as dew sets in.
