The IPL 2025 match number 13 has been scheduled for the Lucknow Super Giants vs Punjab Kings (LSG vs PBKS) match at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium (Lucknow) on Tuesday evening (April 1). It will be the third match for LSG and the second game for PBKS this season. 

LSG started the season strongly. Although they suffered a shocking one-wicket defeat against Delhi Capitals in their season opener after dominating the game, they thrashed the IPL 2024 runners-up SunRisers Hyderabad by five wickets. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings smashed 243/5 in their season opener against Gujarat Titans and won by 11 runs. 

Despite some issues, both teams have earned confident starts, which is very important for a team in every IPL season. While some of the key LSG names are performing strongly, some are still finding their form, and the Punjab Kings have strong all-rounder names to make the franchise look very dangerous.
