Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will play their first home match of the IPL 2025 season on April 1 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. The clash against Punjab Kings marks the 13th match of the tournament.
LSG will be aiming for their second win of the season, having won one and lost one so far. The team will heavily rely on key performers such as Nicholas Pooran, Mitchell Marsh, and David Miller.
Top Performers: Pooran and Marsh Among Leading Run-Scorers
Nicholas Pooran is the leading run-scorer in IPL 2025 so far, with 145 runs in 2 matches
Mitchell Marsh follows closely, holding 4th place on the list with 124 runs
Both players will be key to Lucknow’s chances as they take on a strong Punjab Kings side.
David Miller Nears 3000 IPL Runs Milestone
Veteran middle-order batter David Miller has remained unbeaten in both matches of IPL 2025 so far:
Scored 27 off 19 balls* against Delhi
Scored 13 against Sunrisers Hyderabad*
Miller now stands just 36 runs away from reaching the 3000-run milestone in IPL. He has accumulated 2964 runs in 124 innings across 132 matches, with:
Average: 36.59
Strike Rate: ~140
1 Century and 13 Half-Centuries
If he scores 36 runs in the match against Punjab Kings, Miller will become the 28th player overall—and only the fourth South African—to cross 3000 IPL runs.
Top South African Scorers in IPL History
AB de Villiers – 5162 runs
Faf du Plessis – 4650 runs
Quinton de Kock – 3259 runs
David Miller – 2964 runs (as of now)
Miller’s form will be crucial for LSG as they look to secure a second consecutive win and climb the IPL 2025 leaderboard.
