Played: 3
LSG Wins: 2
PBKS Wins: 1
LSG: For LSG, KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock can be the best batters. The two players have scored the bulk of runs for them in the past two seasons and are tipped to score some more today.
PBKS: Punjab Kings do possess some big names in their lineup and captain Shikhar Dhawan will be amongst the reckoning to score big in the match. Also, a big score is coming from Jonny Bairstow also it feels.
LSG: LSG bowlers Ravi Bishnoi and Krunal Pandya can be amongst wickets in the match. The spin duo can exploit the slow conditions of Lucknow, something they have been doing for LSG in the past seasons.
PBKS: PBKS have Kagiso Rabada who has been a regular performer for them. The South African pacer is one of the predicted bowlers, and also keep an eye on Harpreet Brar.
LSG came close against Rajasthan but in the end faltered big time. Punjab also looked tame in the match against RCB. Between the two teams, a victory for LSG looks more important as they haven't tasted victory yet in the tournament. The conditions in Lucknow has traditionally favoured their style of play, and if it persists this season, Lucknow can register their first points of this edition.
