Pitch Report

The match between MI and LSG is set to take place at Bharat Ratna Sri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. Lucknow has changed as a pitch this season. In the last season, it was slow and difficult to bat on. This season, batters do not mind batting in the middle. Bowlers can make use of the long boundaries. Pacers can use bouncers and slower ones, while spinners can toss up the deliveries.

Player Picks

8.5
C

Quinton de Kock LSG | WK

Quinton De Kock has not batted well for a long time in the last few games. The wicketkeeper-batter would be hoping to return to form ahead of the T20 WC 2024, which must bring the best out of him. The South African is a good batter and is a good fielder too.

9
C

Hardik Pandya MI | BAT

Hardik Pandya returned to form in the last game by playing a fine cameo lower down the order. He has not been able to deliver as well with the bat or with the ball. But as MI is in a dire need of wins, Hardik would be hungry to step up as a player.

9
C

KL Rahul LSG | BAT

KL Rahul has been in good form in the last few matches. The star batter has been good with the bat and as a gloveman. Even as a skipper, he has improved. Rahul will be useful in different roles and is a good fantasy pick due to the variety of contributions.

9

Nicholas Pooran LSG | WK

Nicholas Pooran is one of the best T20 batters in the world. The Southpaw has finished a lot of games for LSG. He has been arguably the best batter of LSG. Even as a fielder, he can claim some athletic catches and change the complexion of the game.

8

Marcus Stoinis LSG | BAT

Marcus Stoinis played one of the greatest knocks in the history of the league when he scored an unbeaten 120*(63) against CSK to chase down 211. Against RR, he was dismissed for a duck. As per the law of averages, he could perform well against MI.

8

Krunal Pandya LSG | ALL

Krunal Pandya has been underrated as a performer this season. The All-rounder has contributed both as a batter and as a bowler. He can claim wickets as a bowler and be economical at the same time. With the bat, he can play a few cameos lower down the order.

7

Ayush Badoni LSG | ALL

Ayush Badoni is a good finisher. He can play a few cameos lower down the order and make an impact on the result. If required, he can bowl an over or two. Not to forget, he is a brilliant fielder in the outfield and takes some stunning catches.

8.5

Amit Mishra LSG | BOWL

Amit Mishra played the last game against RR and picked a wicket. The 41-year-old is still going strong and will be backed by LSG for a couple of games more. As the match is in Lucknow, he can be one of the key bowlers for his side.

6.5

Nuwan Thushara MI | BOWL

Nuwan Thushara had a forgettable outing against RR. However, the Sri Lankan has everything it takes to be a leading bowler for MI. His contribution at the death can be a game-changer for MI. Even with the new ball, he can take wickets.

8

Mohammad Nabi

MI | ALL

Mohammad Nabi does not come higher to bat, which does not allow him to contribute as much with the bat. Even as a bowler, he does not bowl his full quota of overs. The experienced bowler is more of an economical bowler than a wicket-taker.

8.5

Matt Henry

LSG | BOWL

Matt Henry bowls well at the top and can swing the ball away from the right-handers. However, in the ongoing season, he has not proven to be a wicket-taking bowler. Hence, it is better to avoid him and pick better options who can take wickets.

6

Gerald Coetzee

MI | BOWL

Gerald Coetzee did not play the last game against DC due to an injury. The update on his spot in the XI against LSG is yet to be confirmed. However, it will be risky to have him in the side given his return to the side potentially not being at his fittest.
