Head to Head

Being only one year old, Lucknow Super Giants have played just one match against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. It was in IPL 2022 when the Super Giants won by 12 runs.

Fifties from KL Rahul and Deepak Hooda helped Lucknow post 169/7 batting first. The chase was spiked by Avesh Khan’s 4/24 and Jason Holder’s 3/34.

Lucknow Super Giants Form

Lucknow Super Giants started the season with a bang defeating Delhi Capitals at this venue by 50 runs. They came crashing down in their next match though, losing by 12 runs to Chennai Super Kings.

Kyle Mayers has been the surprise package for Lucknow leading the runs tally with 126 runs at a SR of 210.00. He has been their top-scorer in both the matches. The next best is Nicholas Pooran with 68 runs.

Among the bowlers, Mark Wood has been sensational with eight wickets from the two matches, including a five-wicket haul here. Ravi Bishnoi with five wickets at an ER of 7.37 isn’t too far.

Quinton de Kock’s arrival adds to the intrigue for Lucknow as Mayers has been blazing at the top. Marcus Stoinis could be the foreigner missing out, while KL Rahul may slide down to have QdK and Mayers open.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Form

Sunrisers Hyderabad started in the worst manner possible, crashing to a 72-run loss against Rajasthan Royals in Hyderabad. This is the largest losing margin in the tournament so far.

They leaked 203 runs bowling first with only T. Natarajan impressing with 2/23. The chase was never on with the Sunrisers continuously losing wickets and the defeat could have been worse. Abdul Samad with an unbeaten 32 added 36 unbeaten runs for the ninth wicket to save the blushes.

With their run-rate already taking a blow, the Sunrisers can’t afford to lose another match here. There could be some serious questions that could be posed at their team composition.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Team News

The Sunrisers camp received a huge boost with the arrival of South African contingent Aiden Markram, who will make his captaincy debut. Heinrich Klaasen and Marco Jansen have also joined boosting their ranks. Markram, Brook, Klaasen and Jansen could be the four overseas picks.

Verdict

Lucknow Super Giants v Sunrisers Hyderabad

Sunrisers Hyderabad will be boosted by the arrival of their key players, while Lucknow Super Giants will also be swelled in their ranks. Both teams need a boost in the win column but it is the powerplay scores that I am looking at. Seeing how Mayers has been teeing up, I am backing Lucknow Super Giants to score more powerplay runs than Sunrisers Hyderabad. Have a small wager around Mayers top-scoring for Lucknow.
