LSG vs GT Match 19 live streaming is on JioHotstar and Star Sports Network, with the match starting at 3:30 PM IST on April 12, 2026, at Ekana Stadium, Lucknow. 

LSG are at home, in form, and have won three of the last five meetings against GT. Gujarat Titans have lost two from three this IPL and arrive with an NRR of -0.270. On paper, this looks one-sided. Then you check Shubman Gill’s numbers. 454 runs in his last 9 IPL matches at 56.75. 

One player in that kind of form can flip any match. Sunday afternoon at Ekana will not be straightforward.

LSG vs GT Head-to-Head Record

LSG has pulled clear in recent meetings. GT’s dominance feels like a different era now.

LSG has won three straight in this rivalry. Both GT wins came in 2023, and that team looks very different from the one traveling to Lucknow on Sunday. At Ekana specifically, LSG holds the home advantage and the recent form to back it up.

Ekana Stadium: Venue Stats

Lucknow is LSG’s backyard, and these numbers explain why bowling first here matters.

Weather on Sunday: 27.8°C, hazy sunshine, 33% humidity, and zero percent chance of rain. A full 40-over match is expected.

At Ekana, teams bowling first have won 61% of matches across 23 games at this venue. The average first innings score is 173, second innings 163. That 10-run gap is not massive, but it consistently favors the chasing side. 

Pace bowlers have taken 86 wickets from the last 10 matches here compared to just 28 for spinners. That is a 75-25 split, and it points firmly towards seam bowling being the key on this surface.

LSG and GT Current Form

Two IPL 2026 campaigns are going in opposite directions.

Lucknow Super Giants3214-0.359
Gujarat Titans3122-0.270

LSG has won their last two back-to-back. They beat SRH by 5 wickets on April 5 and then edged KKR in a last-ball thriller on April 9. Their only loss this IPL was to DC in the opener. Four points, 5th on the table, and genuine momentum heading into a home fixture.

GT’s campaign has been the opposite. One win from three, two defeats, and an NRR of -0.270. They beat DC by just 1 run on April 8, which shows they can compete in tight games. But before that, they lost to RR and PBKS in their first two outings.
