GT vs LKN Head to Head Record in IPL History

Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants, two youngest Indian Premier League franchises, will be locking horns against one another in the 51st match of the ongoing 16th season of the biggest T20 competition around the world.

The match will also be remembered for being the first IPL match with both the captains being brothers in real life. Furthermore, it will also be the first instance for both Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya to walk out for the toss as rivals in a competitive match.

Fourth match to be played between them, it is noteworthy that Super Giants have never been able to register a victory against this opposition. A low-scoring rivalry has seen the team batting second winning twice out of three occasions.

Slated to play at the Narendra Modi Stadium for the first time tomorrow, LSG would want to start afresh in an away match in order to beat the home team. Titans, meanwhile, have won and lost three matches each in Ahmedabad thus far. The defending champions score at an average run rate of 8.74 at this venue.

Assuming that they are able to achieve this run rate on a Sunday afternoon, fans should brace themselves for the first-ever 170+ innings total in GT vs LKN Head to Head Records.
