Mohammed Siraj is one of India’s premier pacers at the international level. He has made a name for himself by performing well in all three formats. Since his debut for India in 2020, he has become an improved bowler. But he made his very first appearance in the Indian Premier League. Siraj made his IPL debut in 2017.
So far in IPL 2025, Siraj has been a match-winner for GT. In just 12 matches, he has taken 15 wickets at a brilliant average of 27.07, maintaining an impressive economy rate of 9.02. His best this season came against SRH with 4/17, earning him a Player of the Match award. He’s also currently among the top contenders for the Purple Cap.
As Gujarat Titans get ready to take on Lucknow Super Giants at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Siraj’s form with the ball will be crucial. He’ll be expected to deliver early breakthroughs and keep things tight in the powerplay, especially against LSG’s explosive top order. With the way he has been bowling this season, Siraj will be one of GT’s key players to watch in this clash.

LSG has a strong batting line-up, and they have a batting depth until nos. 7 or 8, which makes it tough for any bowler to do well. However, Siraj has done well against them. In fact, he is the highest wicket-taker against LSG among the current RCB bowlers. The RCB pacer will look to carry on the momentum.

Mohammed Siraj vs LSG: What to Expect?
Siraj bowled a brilliant spell of 4/17 against SRH to help his team win their important game of the IPL 2025. He will look to do something similar against LSG. Though he can be expensive at times, once he gets going, he can put his team up front. Lucknow mainly depends on their top order, and if somehow Siraj can take a couple of early wickets, then the story can be totally different. He has good numbers against Mitchell marsh and Aiden Markram as well.
