IPL 2025, LSG vs PBKS: Team news
With some of their Indian fast bowlers still recovering from injuries, LSG will have to count on their explosive top six – backed by a solid seven and eight – to make their job easier. If they bat first, Digvesh Rathi is likely to be the Impact Player, rendering a reasonable pace-spin balance to the attack.
PBKS have not played any game other than their win against the Gujarat Titans. Between them, Omarzai, Maxwell, Stoinis, Shedge, and Jansen (and if used as Impact Player, Harpreet Brar) make them one of the most versatile units. Iyer’s willingness to take on the bowling from the onset and Vyshak’s ability to bowl wide full-tosses at the death bolster their strength even further.
