Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will be up against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the thirteenth match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) season on Tuesday, April 1st. The mouthwatering encounter will take place at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow and is scheduled to start at 7:30 PM IST.

Here are the top three captain and vice-captain choices for LSG vs PBKS match 13 of IPL 2025.

 3. Shardul Thakur

Why Will Shardul Thakur Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Shardul Thakur has got off to a great start in the ongoing 18th edition of the IPL. He is currently the third highest wicket-taker with a total of 6 wickets at an average of 8.83 which makes him one of the first fantasy picks ahead of this game.

Additionally, he has taken a wicket every six balls in the first two games and has some great matchups against the likes of Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis in the middle, making him a crucial option for Lucknow in the post powerplay.

2. Shreyas Iyer

Why Will Shreyas Iyer Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Shreyas Iyer is one of the biggest match-winners one can have in limited overs-cricket. His abilities to score impactful runs under pressure sets him apart from the rest. He will start this game as one of the top picks for the fantasy XI.

The dynamic right-hander was coming into the tournament on the back of some great batting form in the Champions Trophy. And without a doubt he carried his momentum into the tournament and played a match winning innings of 97 in the first game against Gujarat.

1. Nicholas Pooran

Why Will Nicholas Pooran Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Nicholas Pooran will start this game as one of the top captain and vice-captain choices. The explosive left-hander is in great touch in this season so far. In the first two outings, Pooran has scored two half-centuries which led him to be the highest run-scorer of the tournament currently.

Moreover, his numbers in IPL for Lucknow Super Giants speaks for himself as he is the highest run scorer for the franchise since he joined them back in 2023, scoring over 1000 runs at a strike-rate of 184.53. Looking at the fantasy point of view, he is averaging 167 points per game this season which makes his case even stronger.
