LSG vs KOL Match Preview

On Saturday, the 53rd match of the IPL 2022 will be played between the Lucknow Super Giants and the Kolkata Knight Riders. LSG has won 7 of their last 10 matches and will be seeking to win this match in order to finish in the top two. They trounced the Delhi Capitals by 6 runs in their last encounter, amassing 195 runs for the cost of three wickets in 20 overs. LSG would like to see the bowlers perform better, since just two bowlers had an economy of less than ten in the last game.

The Kolkata Knight Riders have won four of their last ten games, and a victory will take them up one spot in the points standings. In the previous encounter, KKR defeated Rajasthan Royals by 7 wickets after chasing a 153-run goal in 19.1 overs. KKR are still figuring out their best starting partnerships and may make some adjustments to their top-order after both openers failed to deliver a good start in the previous game.
