Lucknow pitch report for LSG vs CSK match

Compared to the other IPL 2024 venues, the pitch at Lucknow's Ekana Stadium will be a touch slower. The hitters may have trouble scoring against the old ball even if the new ball will come easily off the bat. In order to succeed, the pacers will use more cutters and bowl onto the pitch as the ball gets older. In the meanwhile, the spinners will have adequate support, making the middle overs difficult for the batters. 

In Lucknow, teams that bat first have had incredible success, winning six games to the chasing teams' three. Hence, it seems likely that the toss winner will bat first. 

Lucknow weather forecast during LSG vs CSK IPL match

According to accuweather.com, the weather in  Lucknow is expected to be good for the game of cricket. The temperature is expected to be around 30°C on the match day with 30% humidity, which means dew might not play a huge role on Friday.
