Continuing his fine form with the bat in the ongoing IPL 2025, Mitchell Marsh, on Thursday (May 22), hit a blistering century during the game between Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
The right-handed batsman opened the innings with Aiden Markram after Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill won the toss and opted to bowl first. The Australia allrounder started cautiously, scoring 22 runs off 19 balls at the end of the powerplay.
He completed his fifty off in the tenth over in style by hitting Sai Kishore for a six. Mitchell Marsh reached the milestone in 33 balls. The LSG star finally shifted the gears in the 12th over when Rashid Khan was introduced into the attack.

Marsh eventually departed for 117 runs. His knock came off 64 deliveries and was studded with 10 fours and 8 sixes. He also became the first overseas batsman to score a century in the ongoing IPL 2025. Overall, he became the seventh batsmen this season to score a century.
7th century of IPL 2025 comes from LSG's batter
The other batters to score a century in IPL 2025 are Ishan Kishan, Priyansh Arya, Abhishek Sharma, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, KL Rahul and Sai Sudharsan.
Thanks to his brilliant knock, LSG finished their innings with a commanding total of 235/2. Apart from Marsh, Nicholas Pooran impressed with the bat as well, scoring an unbeaten 56 off just 27 balls with the help of 4 fours and 5 sixes.
Mitchell Marsh scripts history:
Mitchell Marsh's century against Gujarat Titans also helped him script history. He and his brother Shaun Marsh are now the first pair of siblings to score an IPL century. Shaun played 71 games for Punjab Kings and hit 1 century and 20 fifties. Shaun had scored his first and only IPL century in the very first season of the tournament in 2008.
Marsh has been one of the very few positives in an otherwise disappointing campaign for LSG this year. He has been one of the most consistent batsmen this season and is currently the fourth highest run-scorer in IPL 2025. In 12 games so far, Marsh has scored 560 runs with the help of a century and 5 fifties.
