Gujarat Titans had a rather slow start in IPL 2026. They only have one win in the last three matches coming to this game, a thriller that they won against the Delhi Capitals, whereas LSG recently won against KKR in a thriller of a game, where their youngster Mukul Choudhury scored a match-winning knock.

Coming to today's game, GT won the toss and elected to bowl first. LSG started off at a fast rate, but the wickets kept dropping at regular intervals. Mitch Marsh, Aiden Markram, Pant and Nicholas Pooran - their stars couldn’t play a big innings, resulting in pressure, but the lower order did chip in to take the score past 150. Prasidh Krishna was GT’s star bowler, taking 4 wickets. Also, the side was good in fielding today, too, keeping the score in control.

Ashis Nehra, who is always very dramatic in the dugouts, was seen sending information from the field about a fielding setup, and then Ashok Sharma took the wicket of George Linde, caught by Shahrukh Khan. Star Sports posted this video, asking viewers to guess what Nehra Ji must have said.

“Nehra Ji ka message aaye aur wicket na jaaye... aise ho sakta hai kya?

 

Recently, he also went viral in-game against DC for his intense on-camera reaction to a sloppy fielding error by Shubman Gill, where a throw resulted in five penalty runs against the Delhi Capitals. Known for his normally calm demeanour, the furious reaction highlighted the high-stakes pressure, though GT ultimately secured a dramatic one-run win.

Prasidh Krishna’s 4-wicket haul against LSG dismantled them

Lucknow Super Giants have set a competitive total of 164/8 in their 20 overs against the Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League 2026 at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. Despite a strong start and useful contributions through the innings, including 30 from Aiden Markram and a quick 18 from skipper Rishabh Pant, LSG lost momentum in the middle overs as wickets fell at regular intervals.

The pick of the bowlers was Prasidh Krishna, who delivered a brilliant spell of 4/28, consistently breaking partnerships and applying pressure through the middle and death overs. He was well supported by Mohammed Siraj and Ashok Sharma, who also chipped in with crucial wickets. Late cameos from George Linde and lower-order hitting from Mohammed Shami and Avesh Khan pushed LSG to a respectable finish, but GT’s disciplined bowling ensured the scoring never fully escaped control.

Let’s see if GT can chase down 164 in 20 overs.
