Lucknow Super Giants will take on Punjab Kings in the 21st match of the ongoing Indian Premier League 2023 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow on Saturday. In the two matches played at the venue, run-scoring hasn’t been easy for the batters.
LSG has got off to a good start in the season, winning three out of the four matches they have played. On the other hand, PBKS had also got off to a good start after winning their first two matches but they have veered off the track in the last two games.
PBKS haven’t batted at their absolute best in the last two matches and it has led to their downfall. Liam Livingstone has joined PBKS’ set up but he might not play because of an injury.
For LSG, Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran were brilliant in their previous match against Royal Challengers Bangalore while chasing a massive score of 213 runs. However, LSG will want their bowlers to do a better job for them against PBKS.
KL Rahul’s form is a concern for LSG and it will be interesting to note if they play Quinton de Kock ahead of Kyle Mayers, who hasn’t been able to carry his good form.
Match Prediction: Lucknow Super Giants will enter the contest as favorites against Punjab Kings.
