SRH Playing XI
SRH’s lineup is specifically built to exploit flat decks and small boundaries — with Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, and Heinrich Klaasen as their core match-winners. Ishan Kishan leads the side in Pat Cummins’ absence.

LSG Playing XI
LSG’s bowling, led by Mohammed Shami and Mohsin Khan, looked clinical and must be keen to extend its good run in IPL 2026. Rishabh Pant leads LSG and is a key figure with both the gloves and the bat.
