Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are placed at the bottom of the points table heading into their second game of the IPL 2024 season against Punjab Kings. They lost their season opener against Rajasthan Royals.
The Super Giants failed to chase down 194 against Rajasthan Royals. KL Rahul and Nicholas Pooran scored fifties but there was not much from the other batters.
There were reports of Rahul batting in the middle order from the beginning of the tournament. However, he opened the batting and Devdutt Padikkal batted at three.
The LSG pacers went for runs in the previous match. The spinners expectedly bowled well and they need to bowl well at home as well. The spin combination of Ravi Bishnoi and Krunal Pandua will be key for the home games.
