The caravan of IPL 2025 has now reached a new venue as Rishabh Pant-led Lucknow Super Giants are hosting Shreyas Iyer-led Punjab Kings in match number 13 of the season today. Punjab skipper Shreyas Iyer won the toss and elected to bowl first against Lucknow on the night.

So far, both teams have proved their management correct. But who, out of these two sides, has the upper hand over the other historically? Let us take a look.
