Lucknow Super Giants Team Preview
BATTING Camp
- Kyle Mayers and KL were providing a great start to the team, but there is suspicion over KL Rahul’s presence. If he won’t play, QDK will open for sure to tackle CSK’s strong bowling attack.
- The middle-order batters, including Krunal Pandya, Ayush Badoni, and Marcus Stoinis, are contributing well. Pooran and Deepak have the ability to play well in the death overs.
BOWLING Camp
- Krunal Pandya had a brilliant performance in the bowling department, he had an outstanding spell, conceding only 21 runs in his four overs and taking five wickets.
- Ravi Bishnoi was also effective, picking up two important wickets while being economical.

Quinton de Kock (wk), Kyle Mayers, Krunal Pandya (c), Deepak Hooda, Marcus Stoinis, Ayush Badoni, Krishnappa Gowtham, Ravi Bishnoi, Amit Mishra, Naveen-ul-Haq, Yash Thakur
