Want to read about IPL Predictions Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings to be held on 31st March?
Well, this article will help for sure!
This is the 7th match of IPL 2022.
Star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja will captain CSK and KL Rahul will be the skipper of LSG.
Pitch Report
The pitch at the Brabourne Stadium looks easy paced and full of runs. The boundaries aren’t that big and so, we can expect a high scoring game.
Toss Prediction
The dew factor is making it harder to grip the ball. Also, the ball skids on the turf much faster. As a result, teams winning the toss would prefer to chase rather than bat first.
Squad analysis
Both Chennai and Lucknow faced defeats in their opening games and now they are eyeing to register their 1stwin in the tournament.
The defending Champion CSK suffered a convincing loss against Kolkata Knight Riders in the opening match of the season.
On the other hand, the newly introduced LSG had a close game in their debut match against Gujarat Titans.
The Jadeja-led CSK might have a bad day against KKR but they are capable to come back strongly.
Lucknow had played good cricket in their opening game but unfortunately, the result didn’t come in their favor as Gujarat Titans chased down their target of 159 in the final over.
The match will be telecast live on Star Sports Network and Disney+Hotstar.
