Preview: The two new teams in the league square off in the second match of the IPL 2024 Super Sunday. In what promises to be an explosive match, Shubman Gill and the Gujarat Titans will travel to the Lucknow Super Giants.
The season started with a loss for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) against the Rajasthan Royals. With victories over the Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, their form has improved. The team now has the upper hand and is the most thrilling to watch thanks to Mayank Yadav’s rise to prominence.
There have been two wins and two losses for Gujarat Titans in their four games played thus far this season. Perhaps the greatest match of IPL 2024 thus far, they lost to Punjab Kings in their most recent encounter. With a fast turnaround in mind, Shubman Gill will seek to make up for the errors committed in the previous game.
Indian Premier League 2024, 21st T20 match, IPL 2024, LSG vs GT
Venue: Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow
Date & Time: Sunday, Apr 7, 7:30 PM
Pitch Report: The pacers have benefited recently from the Ekana Stadium track. During Mayank Yadav’s debut against PBKS last weekend, this was made clear. Because chasing at this venue can be difficult, expect the skipper who wins the toss to bat first. Particularly when the ball is moving under lights, a score in the 160–175 range can be difficult to pursue.
