Lucknow has managed to silence critics with its strong performance

Lucknow Super Giants have been winning consecutive matches under the captaincy of KL Rahul. After facing defeat at the hands of Gujarat at the beginning of the season, it was being said that this team would prove to be the worst under Rahul's captaincy. However, defying the criticism, Lucknow has emerged as a fine playing unit. Young fast bowlers like Mohsin Khan and Avesh Khan are taking wickets while being economical in the power play and death overs.


The top order is consistently scoring runs in batting. In the last match, Rahul got run out without opening the account, but still the team was successful in winning the match. It states that if one batsman does not play in the playoff, then the other batsman can take his place.


Gujarat has lost 2 consecutive matches

Gujarat Titans has been the most consistent team of this season. However, after losing the last two matches, she has been seen in a bit of trouble. In front of Punjab, Hardik deliberately chose to bat first after winning the toss, so that he could check the balance of his team in difficult situations. Due to the disappointing performance of the GT batsmen, PBKS chased down the target in almost 16 overs.


Against Mumbai, the team decided to field first, but they lost the match by 5 runs. With Gujarat almost certain to play the playoffs, the team would like to raise the confidence level by winning a few matches. In the first match, Gujarat was heavy on Lucknow and in today's match also the team will try its best to register a win.
