IPL 2022: Picks for the match between Punjab Kings and Lucknow Super Giants

 

Punjab Kings will go head to head against Lucknow Super Giants in the 42nd match of the ongoing Indian Premier League at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune on Friday. Punjab Kings have managed four wins and as many losses in the eight matches, they have played.

On the other hand, Lucknow Super Giants have looked like a confident unit as they have won five out of their nine games. It will be a crucial fixture for both of these teams and they will aim to bag two important points.

We take a look at Picks for the match between Lucknow Super Giants and Punjab Kings. We will look at head-to-head records, stats, and players to look out for in the upcoming match.

Current form for PBKS: W L L W L

Punjab Kings have been hot and cold in the ongoing season and they need to be more consistent in their performances. The Mohali-based franchise had come up with a better show against Chennai Super Kings as Shikhar Dhawan had played a superb knock. Furthermore, Arshdeep Singh has continued to impress while bowling in the death overs as he has been right on the money with his yorkers.

Current form for LSG: W L W L W

KL Rahul scored a brilliant hundred in the previous match against Mumbai Indians but the rest of the batters failed to get going. Thus, LSG will want a more collective effort from their batting unit. Moreover, Chameera, Holder, and Mohsin Khan bowled well against MI.

Head to Head: This will be the first match of the IPL between these two teams.

Players to watch out for: KL Rahul, Quinton de Kock, Deepak Hooda, Ayush Badoni, Ravi Bishnoi, and Avesh Khan will be the crucial players for Lucknow Super Giants.

Mayank Agarwal, Shikhar Dhawan, Odeon Smith, Shahrukh Khan, Liam Livingstone, Kagiso Rabada and Arshdeep Singh will be the key players for PBKS.

​​Lucknow Super Giants Probable Playing XI: KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Manish Pandey, Deepak Hooda, Krunal Pandya, Marcus Stoinis, Jason Holder, Mohsin Khan, Ayush Badoni, Dushmantha Chameera, Ravi Bishnoi.

PBKS Predicted Playing XI: Shikhar Dhawan, Mayank Agarwal (c), Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Jonny Bairstow, Rishi Dhawan, Kagiso Rabada, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh, Sandeep Sharma.
