After 25+ matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, teams have settled in for an exciting season. Many teams are still struggling to maintain their ‘winning records’ intact while teams like Rajasthan Royals (RR) , Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) have performed well and stayed at the top of the points table. IPL 2024: Kolkata Knight Riders Seek Home Comfort Against Mayank Yadav-Less Lucknow Super Giants.

Two of these ‘high-performing’ sides, KKR and LSG will face off in match number 28 of the competition, which will be an interesting affair. KKR in top form has not won a single game against LSG in IPL so far. But after a mega auction and reforms, the current KKR side is one of the favourites to land the IPL 2024 title. LSG on the other hand have a balanced team but is very dependent on star players to win games for them.

KKR's average score this season has been around 180 – due to their recent hiccup against CSK. The side is full of all-rounders who can perform on any given day. LSG also has specialists in every department and could provide strong competition to any side in the league.
