The new franchises are doing a pretty good job this season. They are picking up from where they left off last season and are both impressing with the ball in particular. Lucknow in particular will be moved by the fact that they were able to defend a middling score, or infact, a low score, given the way T20 Cricket has been played off late.

LSG vs GT Key Players

Kyle Mayers

With his explosive hitting and medium pace up front, Kyle Mayers has made himself a tough candidate to leave out. He gives the Lucknow management a happy headache with Quinton De Kock coming back, leaving Lucknow wondering who to leave out.

Sai Sudharshan

Sai Sudharshan, with two innings, is proving to be a pretty strong prospect this IPL. Left-handed, and with the ability to rotate strike effectively with proper cricketing shots, has made him a really good player to watch this season.
