Mitchell Marsh continued his rich vein of form as his blazing ton off just 56 balls helped Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) to post a huge total of 235 runs against Gujarat Titans (GT) in match 64 of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) season. The burly opener switched gears seamlessly and bought his maiden IPL hundred. The all-rounder dealt with spin and pace with equal precision and played flawless innings.
The highlight of Marsh's innings was the 25-run assault of Rashid Khan in the 11th over. That big over gave LSG the momentum from where they cut loose. Aiden Markram (36) runs and Nicholas Pooran unbeaten (56) runs also chipped in with vital contributions to allow LSG to post a huge total after being sent into bat by GT.
