Lucknow Super Giants batter Nicholas Pooran was the second leading run-scorer of the side in the previous season with 499 runs to his name from 14 innings at an average of 62.37 and a strike rate of 178.21 with three fifties. Retained for INR 21 crore, the southpaw will be responsible for taking his team out of tricky situations. If Pooran has a good season he will have good chance of leading the IPL 2025 Orange Cap race.

Probable Best Bowler: Axar Patel

Delhi Capitals' newly announced skipper Axar Patel can be the game changer for the upcoming game against LSG. Patel, who was part of India's T20 World Cup 2024 and Champions Trophy 2025 winning teams, will be riding high on confidence. Notably, in the previous edition, the left-armer picked 11 wickets in 14 games. With Visakhapatnam pitch helping the spinners, the Delhi Capitals captain will be handy in the middle-overs.
