Lucknow Super Giants: Captain KL Rahul has led the team from the front. With 451 runs from 11 games, he is the highest run-scorer for the side and second in the race for Orange Cap. Among the many positives for LSG, Quinton de Kock and Deepak Hooda have played responsibly in the recent games. On the bowling front, pacers Avesh Khan and Jason Holder have been the backbone of the side, while Mohsin Khan too has been delivering good performances on a consistent basis. What would worry them is the fact that Ravi Bishnoi has been a bit expensive (8.23 economy rate).
Gujarat Titans: The best part of the team is that it has not relied on individuals for wins. In almost every game, GT have found a new match-winner. However, their batting department needs to be a bit more consistent, especially the top order. While Wriddhiman Saha has been really good at the opening slot, his fellow batsman Shubman Gill has blown hot and cold. To add to the team’s problems, skipper Hardik Pandya, David Miller and Rahul Tewatia have failed to impress with their batting of late. Gujarat have a lethal bowling attack with the likes of Mohammed Shami, Lockie Ferguson and Rashid Khan, but the trio have failed to perform in unison in the recent games. While Shami has leaked runs, Rashid is struggling to take wickets this season, though he has been economical.
Both Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans, who have joined IPL this year, have played only one match against each other. Gujarat had won the last-over thriller by five wickets.
LSG and GT play their IPL 2022 match at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune. The venue has offered a good batting surface with some help for bowlers in it. Notably, teams batting first have won the last five games. It will be interesting to see whether the captain that wins the toss would like to stick with the trend of bowling first or bat first depending on the recent results.
