PBKS Playing 11 vs LSG 

Punjab Kings have been riding high on captain Shreyas Iyer’s composed leadership and strong batting form. Iyer’s four fifties this season have anchored their campaign, while opener Prabhsimran Singh continues to impress with the bat. The absence of Glenn Maxwell due to injury is a blow, but options like Azmatullah Omarzai or Aaron Hardie offer flexibility. On the bowling front, Yuzvendra Chahal’s hat-trick against CSK signals a timely return to form, giving PBKS a potent edge as they eye a top-two finish.

LSG Playing 11 vs PBKS 

Lucknow Super Giants are in desperate need of a turnaround, with skipper Rishabh Pant struggling for runs. Pant’s solitary fifty this season highlights their top-order concerns. Despite power-packed names like Nicholas Pooran, Mitchell Marsh, and Aiden Markram, consistency has eluded LSG’s batting. However, Mayank Yadav’s return adds much-needed pace to the bowling attack, supplementing the efforts of Avesh Khan. LSG must bring their A-game in all departments to keep their playoff hopes alive.
