IPL 2025: Pooran, Marsh Star As LSG Edge Out KKR By Four Runs In Thriller
Lucknow Super Giants: A night of sixes, drama, and heart-pounding momentum-shifts ended with Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) holding their nerve to clinch a nail-biting four-run win over Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in one of the most entertaining matches of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 so far, at the Eden Gardens here on Tuesday.
Riding on blazing innings from Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran, LSG piled up a mammoth 238/3 — their second-highest total in IPL history — only for KKR to come within touching distance of pulling off a record chase before falling short at 234/7.
Sent in to bat on a belter of a surface, LSG openers Marsh (81) and Aiden Markram (47) gave their side a dream start. Marsh, showing glimpses of his vintage best, unleashed a flurry of clean, powerful strokes, while Markram complemented him with smart placement and timing.
