Lucknow played superbly in their first game of the tournament but the end overs and some classy batting from Gujarat Titans were the cause of their downfall. The top order was non-existent in the first match with Shami destroying their top order with his beautiful swing bowling. One good thing that came out good in the game was that the middle and lower-middle order was tested early in the tournament.
Lucknow Super Giants Predicted Lineup
KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Evin Lewis, Manish Pandey, Krunal Pandya, Deepak Hooda, Ayush Badoni, Avesh Khan, Mohsin Khan, Ravi Bishnoi, Dushmantha Chameera
Chennai Super Kings
The defending champions were floored in their first game against KKR. With Moeen Ali and Dwaine Pretorius coming back into the game after isolation, the selectors will have many more choices to select the players from in this game. With the arrival of Moeen Ali, the CSK batting will get more stability which was completely demolished by KKR bowling in the last game. CSK too have to prove a point with the bat coming to this game.
Chennai Super Kings Predicted Lineup
Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Robin Uthappa, Ambati Rayudu, Ravindra Jadeja (c), MS Dhoni (wk), Shivam Dube, Moeen Ali, Dwayne Bravo, Adam Milne, Tushar Deshpande
