Top 3 captaincy picks for LSG vs SRH Dream11 Prediction Today: IPL 2025 Match 61

The 61st match of IPL 2025, LSG vs SRH, is scheduled to be played on Monday evening in Lucknow.

Match no. 61 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 might decide the fate of Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) this season. It will be all over for them if they lose this game. LSG will play a home game against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Monday evening.

This clash will begin at 7:30 PM at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. LSG need to win all three games to survive in the playoffs race, while SRH have nothing to lose from here on as they’re already eliminated from the playoffs race. They will look to spoil LSG’s party. Both sides have some tremendous players, and this can be a good battle.

Fans can also do well on fantasy cricket platforms with this game. Choosing a good captain can make it even better.

For that, we’ve suggested three players who could be great choice to be picked as captain of Dream11 teams on various fantasy cricket platforms.

Top three Dream11 captaincy picks for LSG vs SRH, Match 61, IPL 2025

1. Nicholas Pooran

Nicholas Pooran has been quiet for some matches, which has affected LSG’s performance. But he himself will be eager to play an impactful knock and take his team to win. He was at his best when LSG faced SRH last time.

He slammed a 26-ball 70 against them with six fours and six sixes. Once he gets going, it is hard to stop him, and that X-factor makes him a good choice as Dream11 captain. Pooran has so far earned 938 fantasy points at an average of 85.27 points per match.

2. Aiden Markram

Another player that has done well for LSG is Aiden Markram. He was given a role as opener, and he did pretty well for the team. He is in good form and has a solid technique against spin and pace. Markram has played well in Lucknow this season.

Not just his batting—he is very handy with the ball and has taken a few wickets as well. That all makes him a good option as Dream11 captain. Markram has earned 878 fantasy points at an average of 79.82 points per game.

3. Abhishek Sharma

Abhishek Sharma was on fire in 2024, but he has not been as consistent as he would have liked in the ongoing season. With Travis Head ruled out of the game, Abhishek will be the key batter for SRH.

He scored 74 off 41 in his last innings. With the surface in Lucknow helping spinners, he can also be a good spin option. Overall, he has earned 708 fantasy points and can be a good option to pick as Dream11 captain.
