Punjab looked good in both their matches, although losing their last in Bengaluru. They have the right firepower to make a match out of this trip and pick up their second win of the campaign. Back the Punjab Kings to win here.

Head to Head

Punjab and Lucknow faced each other three times in the IPL with Lucknow winning two and Punjab winning one. The lone win for the Kings came at this venue last season.

Lucknow Super Giants Form

Lucknow started their season with a 20-run loss to Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur. It was a game that saw the return of their captain KL Rahul, but one that slipped off their grasp.

Bowling first, the Super Giants conceded 193 for 4. Naveen-ul-Haq conceded runs late, and his figures of 2 for 41 don’t do justice to the impact he’s had.

The chase was anchored by KL with 58 off 44 balls, but quick wickets at the top restricted their chances. A late blitz from Nicholas Pooran (64 off 41) only delayed the inevitable.

Lucknow Super Giants Team News

David Willey remains unavailable for the side, as he misses the start due to personal reasons. Shamar Joseph is an exciting option in the squad but the hosts may not change their overseas combination.

Punjab Kings Form

Punjab played two matches in this season, winning and losing one each. They started with a four-wicket win at home against the Delhi Capitals before losing by the same margin against Bengaluru away from home.

Sam Curran is enjoying the extra batting responsibility and has two decent scores already. Liam Livingstone seems to be their aggressor with a SR of 161.76.

Bowling needs a bit more incision, as Kagiso Rabada and two others have three wickets each. Harshal Patel was brought in as their death overs specialist, but is yet to settle in the squad.

Punjab Kings Team News

Punjab played the same team in both their matches, but could think hard about Shashank Singh’s impact in the side. Harpreet Singh could be an option.
