PBKS vs LSG Match Preview:
Shikhar Dhawan roared with the bat for PBKS in the last fixture against CSK. Bhanuka Rajapaksa, who was excluded after playing well enough, played a responsible knock with the bat to justify his re-inclusion. Jonny Bairstow is yet to fire with the bat and it'd be interesting to see if Punjab Kings would continue playing the Englishman or will turn towards Odean Smith, who has won them a match with the bat this season.
Rishi Dhawan's inclusion in the last match was a revelation for Punjab Kings as the pacer picked up 2 wickets and bowled continously at around 140 KMH. Although Sandeep Sharma's economy can be a concern and Vaibhav Arora would be itching to make a comeback to the playing XI.
Lucknow Super Giants captain KL Rahul scored an unbeaten ton in the last match and has scored a total of 2 centuries and a half-century this season already. Up against his former side for the first time since leaving them, LSG would be banking on Rahul's consistency to rise further up the points table.
LSG bowling performance has been decent so far. Avesh Khan missed the last encounter due to a niggle and was replaced by Mohsin Khan. Ravi Bishnoi's form can be a concern for the Super Giants who has just managed 2 wickets in the last 4 games at an economy of 9+ RPO.
