This evening, Lucknow SuperGiants (LSG) will take on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in match 30 of the ongoing IPL 2025 season. The much-anticipated encounter will be played at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. 

Both teams have had entirely contrasting IPL 2025 campaigns so far. While Rishabh Pant's LSG are placed fourth, winning four out of their first six matches, CSK are the bottom-sitters, with a solitary win under their belt. 

As the depleted Super Kings get ready to take on the in-form SuperGiants, let's see how the surface at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow will behave throughout the contest.

Ekana Stadium Pitch Report: Is The Surface Batting Or Bowling Friendly?

The surface at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow has offered good batting conditions in the IPL 2025, as evidenced by the average scoring rate of 9.56 in three matches at the venue so far. There has been no real lateral movement for the pacers, while the batters have enjoyed the track's pace and bounce to score runs. 

The ball did hold up a bit after pitching during the last game between LSG and GT. However, as it's an evening game, expect the pitch to quicken up a bit under the lights. So, batters are likely to enjoy their time in the middle unless they throw their wickets through casual shot selection. 

The spinners generally get a hint of turn at Ekana Stadium. So, overall, it's expected to be an excellent batting track with some help for the spinners. Meanwhile, the fast bowlers should try to hit the deck and be disciplined with their line and length. 

Considering it's an evening game, we reckon the track won't change its behaviour significantly with the game's progression. So, the toss-winner will likely bowl first.
