LSG vs KKR Probable Winners:

LSG's batting lineup has struggled to make an impact this year. Might no one have thought Nicholas Pooran might have a strike rate below 100. Maybe a big inning is in the cards. KKR has won the last game, but they have performed poorly in comparison to LSG. LSG's last four wins over KKR have come on the last ball of the match. Considering the team combination, Lucknow Super Giants is expected to win this match.
