Pant's unbeaten 118 powers LSG to 227/3
Bengaluru, May 27 (UNI) Skipper Rishabh Pant delivered a sensational performance, scoring an unbeaten 118 runs, as Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) posted a formidable 227 for 3 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in their final league match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 here on Tuesday. Pant's innings, laced with 11 fours and 8 sixes off just 61 balls, marked a remarkable turnaround in form. Prior to this match, he had accumulated only 151 runs in 13 innings during the season. His explosive century not only propelled LSG to a commanding total but also etched his name among the franchise's elite centurions, joining the likes of Quinton de Kock, Marcus Stoinis, Mitchell Marsh, and KL Rahul. The highlight of the innings was a 152-run partnership between Pant and Mitchell Marsh, who contributed a brisk 67 off 37 balls. Their stand laid the foundation for LSG's imposing total. Earlier, opener Matthew Breetzke was dismissed for 14, while Nicholas Pooran added 13 runs before falling late in the innings. Abdul Samad remained unbeaten on 1 alongside Pant. RCB's bowling attack struggled to contain the onslaught, with Nuwan Thushara being the most economical, conceding 26 runs and taking one wicket in his four overs. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Romario Shepherd also claimed a wicket each but were expensive, giving away 46 and 51 runs respectively. Pant's celebration after reaching his century, which included a dramatic backflip, quickly went viral on social media, capturing the attention of fans and commentators alike. This exuberant display highlighted both his athletic prowess and spirited demeanour, underlining his vital role in the match and his larger-than-life presence in the IPL. Despite this commanding performance, LSG's chances of progressing to the playoffs remain nil, as they had already been eliminated from contention following a defeat to Sunrisers Hyderabad earlier in the season. Nevertheless, Pant's innings provided a high note to conclude their campaign.

Pant smashed eight sixes and 11 boundaries and outpaced his big-hitting teammates Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran in a sensational knock. A SPECIAL BACKFLIP FROM PANTThe LSG captain celebrated the hundred in his inimitable way, doing a backflip on the pitch before soaking in the applause from the dressing room at the Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium.

Mitchell Marsh's dream IPL run with LSG: 627 runs in 2025, 655 in previous 14 years
Lucknow Super Giants opener Mitchell Marsh capped off a sensational IPL 2025 with a blazing 67-run knock against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their last group-stage clash at Ekana. Marsh arrived at IPL 2025 with little fanfare and a record that few would associate with greatness-just 665 runs across 15 years, an average under 20, and no season of real note. What followed was one of the most unexpected and dominant batting campaigns in IPL history. Marsh blasted 627 runs in 13 innings, rewriting franchise records, outshining legends, and leading LSG's batting charge with the kind of authority no one saw LSG vs RCB Updates |His run tally is now the highest ever by a Lucknow batter in a single season, surpassing KL Rahul's 616 in 2022-a mark that had stood for three years and appeared out of reach. Marsh's consistency and aggressive approach at the top transformed LSG's batting identity. He struck six half-centuries and a century, finishing with a strike rate of 163.70 and an average of 48.23-numbers that placed him among the season's elite RUNS IN AN IPL SEASON FOR LSG: 627 - Mitchell Marsh (2025)616 - KL Rahul (2022)520 - KL Rahul (2024)511 - Nicholas Pooran (2025)508 - Quinton de Kock (2022)Marsh didn't just rewrite franchise records. His 2025 campaign now stands as the most destructive by any Australian batter in IPL history-surpassing even David Warner's peak years and Glenn Maxwell's electric 2014 season. He cleared the ropes 37 times, more than any Australian has ever managed in a single IPL SIXES BY AN AUSTRALIAN IN AN IPL SEASON:advertisement37 - Mitchell Marsh (2025, LSG)36 - Glenn Maxwell (2024, PBKS)35 - Shane Watson (2018, CSK)32 - Travis Head (2024, SRH)With RCB chasing a top-two finish, Marsh and Rishabh Pant stitched together a 152-run stand that left the opposition reeling. Pant, promoted to No. 3, led the early charge with a fluent 54-ball hundred. Marsh found his rhythm midway and launched into a barrage of sixes. Bhuvneshwar Kumar eventually dismissed him-for 67 but only after he had slammed back-to-back maximums. LSG posted 227 with Pant finishing with an unbeaten 118, his second IPL nearly two decades, Shaun Marsh's 2008 had been the gold standard for Australians in the IPL. That narrative has now shifted. In 2025, Mitchell Marsh didn't just match his brother-he surpassed him, becoming the new benchmark for Australian excellence in the league.
