Good wicket to bowl for the pacers, and at the same time, it helps the batters once they settle in.
One can expect a high standard bowling performance from the fast bowling department. Could be a low-scoring contest.
Nicholas Pooran(wk), Deepak Hooda, Kyle Mayers, KL Rahul(C), Kurnal Pandya, Ayush Badoni, Krishnappa Gowtham, Avesh Khan, Mark Wood, Ravi Bishnoi, Jayadev Unadkat
Shikhar Dhawan (c), Prabhsimran Singh (wk), Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Jitesh Sharma, Shahrukh Khan, Sam Curran, Sikandar Raza, Nathan Ellis, Harpreet Brar, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh
K Myers’ job with both bat and ball makes him a captain material. Also, his current form is something that needs to be considered.
The orange cap holder cannot be missed in this time of the tournament. His consistency is miracle and that is paying a huge for PBKS.
Rajapakse’s last game was a mess. But he loves pace and this wicket might get him the touch he needed.
L Rahul innings were unpredictable throughout the tournament. Once he finds the rhythm he will make sure it is big.
This us the IPL N Pooran has been waiting so long. He is an absolute delight to watch with the bat..
VS Curran is able to scalp the wickets anyhow. And economy wise, he is doing a brilliant job.
M Stoinis haso done his best yet. Let’s wait for it. When it happens it will be huge.
It is fair to say that K Pandya is the backbone of LSG.
A Khan and M Wood will haunt down with the extra pace they could extract from the wicket.
R Chahar gets to bowl only after four or five bowlers in PBKS. He is a leggie who can make a big deal when given major role.
Good conditions for Kyle Mayers to bounce back after a storming start. His fast bowling will also come in as good value addition.
Shikhar Dhawan’s contribution to this PBKS side is invaluable as a batter. With a middle order that is not tested yet, the Indian opener’s part will also be huge in this game. He will also look to extend the lead in the table of Orange Cap contenders, which he is leading now.
