Lucknow Super Giants: Pacer William O'Rourke picked 3-27, including twin strikes in the 17th over, as Lucknow Super Giants secured a 33-run win over top-ranked Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Thursday.

After opener Mitchell Marsh slammed the fastest century by a Lucknow Super Giants batter in IPL’s history through a 64-ball 117 and propelled the side to 235/2, the visitors took out GT’s in-form top three batters within the first ten overs.

GT's middle order was finally put to a stern test, and Shahrukh Khan kept them in the hunt by sharing an 86-run stand off 40 balls for the fourth wicket with Sherfane Rutherford. But O’Rourke’s double strike meant GT finished on 202/9, as LSG won both their games against the hosts this season.
