Preview

After losing back-to-back one-sided matches against DC and KKR, there is a complete loss of momentum for LSG in the tournament. Meanwhile, CSK are coming off two consecutive wins against KKR and MI, consolidating their position in the top half of the IPL 2024 points table.

Pitch Report

The pitches at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow have improved considerably for the batters in the IPL 2024 season, but still, the bowlers do have something to play with. The average first innings score at this venue in the tournament history is 157, which has increased by around 20 runs in the ongoing IPL, and during the LSG versus CSK clash, it will be vital for the team batting first to post a total around 180 to defend.

Team Analysis

Lucknow Super Giants

With the lack of big scores from the likes of KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock at the top order, the batting lineup of Lucknow Super Giants are seemingly over dependent on the likes of Nicholas Pooran and Marcus Stoinis to go big at a really high tempo, which they haven’t been able to do consistently. The absence of Mayank Yadav due to injury has played a major difference in the fortunes of LSG, who haven’t been able to pick regular wickets in their last couple of matches.

Chennai Super Kings

Chennai Super Kings batting lineup has been bolstered immensely with a couple of scores from the captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, apart from the consistency in the middle order from Shivam Dube in particular. In the bowling department, Matheesha Pathirana was in sensational form against Mumbai Indians, picking up four wickets to set up a massive win in defending a total.

Conclusion

Although Lucknow Super Giants are going to play at home, their recent run of poor form will make Chennai Super Kings fancy their chances of turning them over in their upcoming match in the IPL 2024.
