The Chennai Super Kings have bounced back from a shaky start and are now on a winning streak, while the Lucknow Super Giants remain at the bottom of the IPL table.

LSG vs CSK Predicted Lineups & Team News
Lucknow Super Giants: The Super Giants will be playing to rebuild some pride as well as keep themselves in the shop window for next season, but with no pressure on them some of their big hitters like Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant and Aiden Markram could come good to put pressure on the Super Kings.
Possible XI: Mitchell Marsh, Josh Inglis, Nicholas Pooran, Rishabh Pant (c), Aiden Markram, Akshat Raghuwanshi, Himmat Singh, Shahbaz Ahmed, Mohammed Shami, Digvesh Singh Rathi, Prince Yadav.

LSG vs CSK Analysis
The last match at the Ekana Cricket Stadium saw the Super Giants hit break their six-match losing streak by beating the Royal Challengers by nine runs on the DLS Method. The Super Giants smashed 209/3 off their 20 overs and when rain stopped the match with an over to spare the visitors were 203/6.
The Ekana pitch is a lovely surface that offers something for bat and ball, but spinners often get a lot more joy out of the surface. It’s not always a high-scoring track, with first innings scores averaging a touch under 170.
Not always easy for the batters to play their strokes, so shot selection and patience is key, but there is good pace and bounce which makes for a good contest.
We can expect an evening that is clear and warm, with high temperatures hitting 41°C, with no rain anticipated. The humidity factor should be over 50%, so as usual second innings dew will encourage sides to bowl first.
Verdict
Lucknow Super Giants are huge favourites to pick up an easy win, with Ruturaj Gaikwad backed to score 29 runs or more.
Prince Yadav is my pick as Lucknow Super Giants’ best bowler, while Anshul Kamboj is backed to take two or more wickets.
Prince Yadav is my pick as Lucknow Super Giants’ best bowler, while Anshul Kamboj is backed to take two or more wickets.
