LSG playing 11 vs PBKS

 

Lucknow Super Giants will be eager to secure their first home win of the season, with skipper Rishabh Pant looking to bounce back after a slow start with the bat. Despite LSG’s impressive five-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad, Pant has struggled, scoring just 0 and 15 in his first two outings. The team will rely on their explosive batting line-up, with Nicholas Pooran and Mitchell Marsh coming off match-winning performances. In the bowling department, leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi will look to regain form, while youngster Digvesh Rathi offers an additional spin option. The team could also turn to Shahbaz Ahmed’s left-arm spin or Aiden Markram’s off-spin to exploit the conditions at Ekana Stadium, which often favour spinners.
