Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will look to end a two-match losing streak when they take on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in match 34 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the BRSABV Ekana Stadium in Lucknow on Friday (April 19).
KL Rahul-led LSG head into the match on the back of a thumping 8-wicket loss to Kolkata Knight Riders, while Ruturaj Gaikwad’s CSK are on a two-match winning streak, having beaten Mumbai Indians by 25 runs in their most recent outing this season.

In their most recent match, fifth-placed LSG failed to defend a total of 161 against KKR at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, where Phil Salt and Shreyas Iyer played quick-paced knocks for the home side.
Third-placed CSK, on the other hand, rode on fifties from Shivam Dube and Ruturaj Gaikwad complimented by MS Dhoni’s 4-ball 20 cameo to set a target of 207 before restricting MI to 186 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
