IPL 2026 LSG vs GT Playing 11: Rishabh Pant-led Lucknow Super Giants will square off against Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans in the 19th match of the IPL 2026 on April 12 at Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow.

Gujarat Titans are in search of their first win in the ongoing 2026 campaign, while LSG has two wins out of three games. Both sides have met on 7 occasions, with Gujarat winning four times and LSG winning three times.

Gujarat Titans won the toss and opted to bowl. Speaking at the toss, GT captain Shubman Gill said, “We’ll field first.

Two points in the last match gave us plenty of confidence. Looking to play better cricket and ensure the match doesn’t go to the last over. We have had a tremendous time, consistency is important in a long tournament such as the IPL. After 14 matches, the most consistent team will win the tournament. Same team for us today.”

Meanwhile, LSG captain Rishabh Pant said, “I think the way wickets are nowadays, you know, the margin batting first or bowling first is not much, but you know, we’ve got a bowl first. I think for us it’s amazing. You know, every win is important and especially when you win like that, it shows the character of a team, you know.

But we want to move on from it, you know, take one match at a time and just give our best.”

“See, definitely it’s a great boost for winning a match and coming into the next one. But at the same time, you know, you still have to give your best each and every match because wicket might play different, condition might be different. But at the same time, last match when we played, we talked about intent on the field. We always talk about that as a team and that was great to see when we were on the field, we were putting bodies on the line.

We are playing with the same team,” concluded Pant.
