The Lucknow Super Gynts team led by Rishabh Pant will go on on Tuesday at their home ground Ekana Stadium with the intention of winning against Punjab Kings. Nicholas Puran of Lucknow is expected to have a tough test in the 13th match of IPL for the explosive form of Puran of Lucknow and the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer of Punjab.
Both teams have done well since the beginning of the tournament, which can make the match exciting. Puran has scored more than 250 runs in his last five matches and has also changed the results of matches for Lucknow based on their capacity. On the other hand, Iyer has given a new direction to his campaign by scoring an unbeaten 97 off 42 balls in the first match of Punjab. Both teams will make every effort to continue their victory.
Lucknow made a strong comeback after losing one wicket to Delhi Capitals in their first match and won against Hyderabad. Punjab made a victorious start of their campaign by defeating Gujarat Titans at their home ground. Apart from Puran, Mitchell Marsh is also performing brilliantly. However, captain Rishabh Pant and David Miller could not play any impressive innings. In bowling, Shardul Thakur led the bowling attack with six wickets. Spinner Ravi Bishnoi can pose a threat to the opposing team in the middle overs.
The Punjab team seems to be strong under Iyer’s leadership. Priyansh Arya and Shashank Singh have also played important innings, while Arshdeep Singh and Marco Jenson are impressed in the bowling department. Yuzvendra Chahal’s spin on the Ekana’s favorable pitch can be fatal. The pitch may be flat, but the role of spinners in the middle overs will become important. The team chasing the run can benefit from dew in the second innings. Punjab will be a strong contender for victory due to the team’s balance and strong batting order.
