Lucknow Super Giants, despite the loss to the Chennai Super Kings continue to look really good. They competed well against a good batting line-up, and on a flat track, making 218 look more than chasable. SRH on the other hand are off to a bad start yet again. On the bright side though, they did show some fight with SRH looking decent in the back end of both innings. With Markram returning that leaves them with some bright spots to look forward too.

LSG vs SRH Key Players

T Natarajan

Natarajan did a fine job at the death while the others were being taken for runs around him. His death bowling remains effective and SRH will be banking on him to help them fight back after a poor bowling performance in the first game.

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.
