**Mitchell Marsh Blasts Century as Lucknow Super Giants Dominate Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025**

**Ahmedabad, India –** Australian opener Mitchell Marsh delivered a blistering century, scoring 117 runs off 64 balls, as the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) defeated the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the 64th match of the IPL 2025. The match, held at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday (May 22), saw Marsh unleash a barrage of boundaries, including 10 fours and 8 sixes, propelling LSG to a formidable total of 235/2 in their 20 overs.

Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill won the toss and elected to bowl first, a decision that quickly backfired as Marsh and Aiden Markram forged a strong opening partnership of 91 runs in 9.5 overs. Markram contributed a brisk 36 off 24 balls, setting the stage for Marsh’s explosive innings.

Marsh continued his onslaught in partnership with Nicholas Pooran, adding a further 121 runs for the second wicket in just 52 balls. Marsh reached his century in the 17th over with a single off Arshad Khan, before eventually being dismissed for 117.

This century marks Marsh’s highest score in the IPL and further cements his place as a key player for LSG. With 560 runs this season, Marsh is now the second-highest run-scorer in a single season for Lucknow, surpassing KL Rahul’s 520 runs in 2024. He now trails only Rahul’s 616 runs from the 2022 season. He is also the first overseas batter to score a century this season.

The Gujarat Titans now face an uphill battle to qualify for the playoffs.
