Analysis
With the captain of Lucknow Super Giants, KL Rahul, not performing at his best with the bat in the IPL 2024, Quinton de Kock and Nicholas Pooran have taken the mantle to get big scores for the team. The bowling department of LSG has improved drastically with the inclusion of the express pace of Mayank Yadav, who has picked up two consecutive player of the match awards.
Meanwhile, the captain of Gujarat Titans, Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan have been two of the top scorers, while the other batters in the team have made a couple of key contributions with the bat as well. Although Rashid Khan hasn’t picked up a bulk of wickets for GT in the early stages of the IPL 2024, he has played a significant role in creating pressure for the likes of Noor Ahmad and Mohit Sharma to dismiss opposition batters with some regularity.
