Punjab Kings (PBKS) will be up against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in match No. 38 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) Stadium in Mohali on Friday. KL Rahul’s LSG are currently in 4th place on the IPL 2023 Points Table but a win on Friday night can propel them near the top, thanks to their superior net run-rate.
LSG will look to seek revenge over PBKS for the two-wicket loss they suffered at home in Lucknow earlier in the IPL 2023 season. Both team are currently on 8 points each but the home side are lower on the points table due to a poor net run-rate.
Skipper Shikhar Dhawan and pacer Kagiso Rabada are expected to the return to the PBKS line-up. Dhawan, who was holding the Orange Cap at one stage earlier in the tournament, has been laid low with injury for a while now. PBKS skipper has been consistent at the top and still the leading run-getter for his side although he has played only 4 matches in IPL 2023. He has scored 233 runs in 4 games with two fifties and a best of 99 not out.
LSG, on the other hand, will be missing the services of their lead pacer Mark Wood, who is yet to recover from illness.
