LSG vs GT: Match Preview
Lucknow has managed to silence critics with its strong performance
Lucknow Super Giants have been winning consecutive matches under the captaincy of KL Rahul. After facing defeat at the hands of Gujarat at the beginning of the season, it was being said that this team would prove to be the worst under Rahul’s captaincy.
However, defying the criticism, Lucknow has emerged as a great playing unit. Young fast bowlers like Mohsin Khan and Avesh Khan are taking wickets while being economical in the power play and death overs.
The top order is consistently scoring runs in batting. In the last match, Rahul got run out without opening the account. But still, the team was successful in winning the match.
Gujarat has lost 2 consecutive matches
Gujarat Titans have been the most consistent team of this season. However, she has appeared in a bit of trouble after losing the last two matches. Due to the disappointing performance of GT’s batsmen, PBKS chased down the target in almost 16 overs
.Against Mumbai, the team decided to field first but they lost the match by 5 runs. Gujarat is almost certain to play in the playoffs. The team would like to raise its confidence level by winning a few matches.
