Lucknow will square off against Rajasthan in the 63rd match of the Indian T20 League 2022 at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. Both the teams are coming into the match on the back of defeats in their last match. The two teams will look to win the match and carry a winning momentum to the business end of the tournament.
Team News:
Lucknow: While they have looked like a formidable team in most of the matches, the brittle batting in the last match against Gujarat will obviously give the team management something to think about. They will look to bounce back quickly and win their next match.
Probable XI: Quinton de Kock (WK) (O), KL Rahul (C), Deepak Hooda, Karan Sharma, Kruna Pandya, Ayush Badoni, Marcus Stoinin (O), Jason Holder (O), Mohsin Khan, Dusmantha Chameera, Avesh Khan.
Key Players:
KL Rahul: KL Rahul has been the most important cog in the Lucknow batting. His importance became even more evident in the last match, where he failed to fire big and the team crumbled under pressure.
Mohsin Khan: With 10 wickets in 6 matches at an economy rate of 5.19 and an average of 10.9, Khan has proved his worth in the team.
Rajasthan: Rajasthan is knocking at the doors for a position in the top four of the tournament. But their convincing defeat in the last match against Delhi was a setback to their plans going ahead in the tournament. They will look to win the next match and regain their winning form.
Probable XI: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler (O), Ravichandran Ashwin, Devdutt Padikkal, Sanju Samson (WK) (C), Riyan Parag, Rassie van der Dussen (O), Trent Boult (O), Prasidh Krishna, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Sen.
Key Players:
Jos Buttler: The orange cap holder for the Indian T20 League 2022, is the most important part of the Rajasthan batting. They will be hoping that Buttler continues his form to the business end of the tournament.
Yuzvendra Chahal: Yuzvendra Chahal has picked up 23 wickets in the tournament from 12 matches. He is the purple cap holder of the tournament at present and is one of the most important reasons why Rajasthan is performing brilliantly in the tournament.
Pitch Conditions: With the other pitches in the tournament slowing down, Brabourne’s strip is still looking a good one to bat on. On a pitch that is still looking good for batting and ground where the dimensions are not too big a high-scoring match can be expected.
