April 12’s Super Sunday in IPL 2026 will kick off with a battle between a high-class top order and what could be deemed unarguably the strongest new-ball pace attack in the tournament so far.
With the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) hosting the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the afternoon on a sluggish Lucknow pitch, we could very well see a contest akin to Test cricket today.
Both teams have scrapped through marginal victories and losses this season. Lucknow has won two out of three games, and Gujarat has lost two, but both teams would be humble to realize that the results of their games could have very well gone any way.
LSG vs GT: Contests to watch out for today
Watch out for some in-game battles today. Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler against Mohammed Shami, Prince Yadav, and Avesh Khan/Mohsin Khan is likely to be the decisive tussle in this fixture.
Further, how LSG’s middle order comprising Ayush Badoni, Nicholas Pooran, and Mukul Choudhary tackle the threat of Rashid Khan, Prasidh Krishna, and Kagiso Rabada will also have a huge impact on the match.
