IPL 2022 – LSG ( Lucknow Super Giants ) vs KKR ( Kolkata Knight Riders ) cricket match was scheduled today in which LSG won by 75 runs.
The Kolkata Knight Riders won the toss and opted to bowl first.
KL Rahul: We haven’t played too many games here. From whatever we have seen on the TV, it has been sticky and hasn’t been a high scoring venue. But it gives us a good opportunity as a batting unit to come out and put up a competitive total on the board. We have to assess the conditions and put a challenging total on the board. We have one change – Avesh comes in for Gowtham. That’s what gives us confidence and that’s what we want to be as a team, performing as a team and not relying on one or two players. We have had a couple of days’ break, the body is fresh and looking forward to going out there and giving our 100 percent.
Shreyas Iyer: We will look to bowl first. Considering the wicket which looks dry and dew is not going to play a massive role on this ground. We also chased pretty well in the last game. We have got one change, unfortunately, Umesh pulled his calf muscle and Harshit Rana comes in.
Lucknow Super Giants took 30 runs off Shivam Mavi’s 19th over to end up on 176 for 7 against Kolkata Knight Riders in an IPL match on Saturday.
