Preview: The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will square off in the seventeenth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) on Friday, April 19, at the famed Ekana International Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.
Right now, the team captained by KL Rahul is ranked sixth in the standings. LSG has managed to win three of the six games that have been played thus far. The Lucknow-based team struggled mightily with their batting selection in their most recent matchup against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), unable to put up a substantial score on the ground that favours batting. As KKR easily chased down the score, their bowlers appeared to be at a loss for answers in the middle.
CSK, on the other side, is now ranked third in the IPL standings. The team led by Ruturaj Gaikwad has managed to win four of the six games that have been played thus far. The Chennai-based team has just emerged victorious from two consecutive games. They defeated KKR with a commanding seven-wicket victory. In their most recent encounter with the Mumbai Indians (MI), CSK scored 206 runs to win the game by a margin of 20 runs.
Indian Premier League 2024, 34th T20 match, IPL 2024, LSG vs CSK
Venue: Ekana International Cricket Stadium
Date & Time: Friday, Apr 19, 7:30 PM
Pitch Report: The Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow is renowned for having a slower-moving pitch. Therefore, most of the time in the past, lower-scoring games have been anticipated. Therefore, when the venue hosts its fourth IPL 2024 event on Friday, it is expected that this aspect would stay the same. Most often, the side that wins the toss will choose to bat first.
