Lucknow on the way to the playoffs

Lucknow Super Giants defeated Delhi's strong team by 6 runs in the last match. Lucknow seems to be the most balanced team of the season. Fast bowlers like Mohsin Khan and Avesh Khan are consistently taking wickets on the strength of pace. Ravi Bishnoi's leg spin has also been economical. Under the captaincy of KL Rahul, this team has been continuously in the race for the playoffs and today's win will almost confirm their ticket.


Marcus Stoinis and Ayush Badoni not scoring runs is a problem for the team. At present, other batsmen are scoring runs, so the performance of these players is not being noticed. However, his failure in the upcoming big matches could cost the team heavily.
