Preview
The two new teams in this season will meet each other on Monday evening to kickstart their Indian T20 League 2022 campaigns. Although both are new teams, the players have been a part of the tournament before and are well aware of how things happen here. While KL Rahul will be leading the Lucknow team, Hardik Pandya has been given the responsibility to lead Gujarat. Both captains are known to share a good bond which also makes the clash a bit interesting. Pandya will have all the eyes on him considering he is returning to action after almost six months.

KL Rahul has been a consistent performer for his franchise in the last few seasons, making him a good choice for captain of the fantasy team. Apart from Rahul, Shubman Gill, Quinton de Kock, and Manish Pandey can be good picks from the batting department. In the bowling line-up, Rashid Khan, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohammed Shami, and Avesh Khan can fetch some valuable points. Pandya brothers will be good all-rounder choices.
