TEAM NEWS

Lucknow Super Giants: KL Rahul has led the team from the front. He is the second highest run-scorer this season with 451 from 10 matches. Meanwhile, the likes of Quinton de Kock, Ayush Badoni, Deepak Hooda and Krunal Pandya need to take more responsibility. Though Hooda will be coming to this game on the back of a sensational fifty, consistency is something he would be aiming at. Role of all-rounders Marcus Stoinis and Jason Holder will also be important for the side. Mohsin Khan has been improving with each game, but Dushmantha Chameera, Pandya and Holder would be looking for a comeback in bowling.

Kolkata Knight Riders: Too much of shuffle at the opening slots yet KKR have failed to find a perfect pair. Finch has scored only one fifty and returned single digit scores in the rest three games, while with other openers KKR have been impatient. Captain Shreyas Iyer is himself having an ordinary season with the bat. However, the side would be pleased with the effort of its middle order in the previous win over Rajasthan Royals. Nitish Rana and Rinku Singh both chipped in with useful knocks for KKR in the game. In the bowling front, Tim Southee is searching form for the past two games, while Umesh Yadav has been right on the money. Sunil Narine the bowler has been good but the attacking batsman in him has not contributed to the team’s cause so far. Andre Russell too would be raring to go with the bat.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

Both Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders are playing against each other for the first time in IPL as LSG have joined the cash-rich tournament this year itself.

VENUE AND PITCH

LSG and KKR play their IPL 2022 match at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune. The venue offers a good batting track. In the last four games at the venue, teams batting first have won. However, still the captain that wins the toss would like to bowl first on the surface expecting little bit of help from the dew in the second innings.
