Marsh’s Masterclass against GT

The defining moment came in the 12th over, when he took on Rashid Khan, smashing 25 runs in a single over—two sixes and three boundaries—completely shifting the momentum in LSG’s favor.
After reaching his half-century, Marsh accelerated further, attacking both spinners and pacers with precision. His 117 off 64 balls, featuring 10 boundaries and 8 sixes, played a crucial role in LSG’s imposing total of 235/2, marking a standout performance in IPL 2025.

Aftermath of the Knock
Mitchell Marsh’s century came too late to save Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) from elimination in IPL 2025. Despite his 117-run masterclass, LSG had already been knocked out of the playoff race following their six-wicket loss to Sunrisers Hyderabad earlier in the week. While Marsh’s performance was a standout moment, it couldn’t change the team’s fate, as LSG’s campaign officially came to an end.
