Preview
Lucknow Super Giants will go head-to-head against Punjab Kings in the 11th match of the IPL 2024 at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. After losing their first game in the new season against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur, LSG will look to register their first points on the board in the tournament. On the other side, PBKS were unable to win on their travels to Bengaluru, which is why they could be in for a tough outing in Lucknow.
Pitch Report
The pitches at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow have a reputation for providing help to the bowlers, especially the spinners, in its short history of hosting T20 matches. The average first-inning score at this venue in the IPL is 148, but it could prove to be far from enough for either LSG or PBKS in their upcoming clash in the tournament.
Team Analysis
Lucknow Super Giants
After a poor start in pursuit of a total above 190 against RR in the IPL 2024, it was the likes of KL Rahul, Deepak Hooda, and Nicholas Pooran, who kept LSG in the contest for long periods, but they couldn’t chase down the target. On the bowling side of things, Krunal Pandya bowled an economical spell for Lucknow against Rajasthan, but the rest of the bowlers were not able to restrict the flow of scoring of the opposition batters.

Punjab Kings
The batting lineup of Punjab Kings have had key contributions from their captain Shikhar Dhawan, Sam Curran, and Liam Livingstone in their first couple of matches in the IPL 2024. Harpreet Brar has been the pick of the bowlers for PBKS in the initial stages of the tournament, but the fast bowlers haven’t quite lived up to their billing for them.
