Lucknow Super Giants: Analysis
Gameplan: The Lucknow Super Giants finally announced their arrival into the tournament with an emphatic win over CSK in their last match as they chased down a mammoth target of 211. The batters did a tremendous job after a poor display from the bowlers in the first half. KL Rahul’s side found a gem in the form of Ayush Badoni who played a fine cameo thereby assisting massively important innings from Evin Lewis who finished all Chennai hopes with his blistering batting towards the latter half of the chase.
Thus the team management will definitely be not at all worried about the team’s batting form. However, equally impressive assistance from the bowling unit also is expected who had leaked away too many runs in the last game. The team management will hope for a better display from the bowling unit consisting of quality bowlers like Ravi Bishnoi, Krunal Pandya and Andrew Tye.
Probable Playing XI: KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Evin Lewis, Manish Pandey, Deepak Hooda, Ayush Badoni, Jason Holder, Krunal Pandya, Andrew Tye, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan
Sunrisers Hyderabad: Analysis
Gameplan: Hyderabad after their crashing out of the top 4 race early on in last season had several questions unanswered which they were expected to find a solution to this season. Thus their crushing defeat to Rajasthan in the first game has made matters only worse for them as the team hasn’t seemed to be gaining any sort of rhythm be it any department of the team. The bowlers at first were hit at all ends of the ground by the batters and we were given a massive target of 205 runs to chase by the Royals which was further made even more difficult by the batsman who failed to have any impact.
The overall process so far has seemed to be an utter failure and the team management definitely has to find a quick method to fix things for the side to rediscover its path back to winning ways. The player combinations expectedly going to be altered to gain more desirable results hereon for the Sunrisers. Picking up a good XI is the first step towards a proper rebuilding process for any side and so should be the case with Sunrisers at the moment.
Probable Playing XI:- Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Kane Williamson (c), Nicholas Pooran (wk), Aiden Markram, Abdul Samad, Washington Sundar, Romario Shepherd, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, Umran Malik.
Probable Top Performers
Probable best batsman of the match – K.L.Rahul
A certain K.L.Rahul had signs of regaining his old rhythm back in the match vs Chennai where he scored a quickfire 40 runs at the early phase of the innings. However, to his utter disappointment, he couldn’t convert it into a big total thereby leaving his team in a spot of bother, midway into a massive chase of a 200+ total. In spite of the earlier happenstances, we feel that the star batsman will finally be at his very best in tomorrow’s game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad.
His brilliant stroke play right from the first ball of the match has been a terror to the opposition whenever he’s been in full rhythm so far on several occasions for his side in the past. A similar expectation can be kept from him in tomorrow’s match, as it’s certainly not an easy task for any team or any bowling lineup on the planet to keep a player of his calibre out of the game for long. We hence predict him to be the best batsman in tomorrow’s match.
Probable best bowler of today’s match – Ravi Bishnoi
In a high scoring encounter against the Chennai Super Kings where almost every bowler was being for runs, Bishnoi alone seemed to be shining brightly with glorious figures of 2/24 in his 4 over spell. He played a major role in helping his side curb the opposition batsman on several occasions and also picked two crucial wickets to break the good rhythm the batsman was in. The team management will expect another equally impressive performance from the 21-year-old in tomorrow’s game against the Sunrisers to seal two more points for the side.
SRH vs LSG: Winning Prediction
Probable winner of today’s match – Lucknow Super Giants
After a lot of detailed analysis made based on the batting, bowling strengths of both the sides, the present form of all players and a dozen other aspects related to both the teams, we’ve felt that Lucknow super giants might emerge victorious in tomorrow’s game thereby adding to the misery of an already crippled Sunrisers Hyderabad.
A brilliant performance with bat and ball combined shall possibly see them through without much trouble against a Hyderabad side that has lacked the services of any in form players from the squad in the recent past. A greater strength both in the batting and bowling depth from the Lucknow will possibly play a major role in handing Sunrisers their second consecutive defeat in a row.
