Punjab Kings have the opportunity to put pressure on teams above them in the points table when it meets Lucknow Super Giants in the Indian Premier League. A win against struggling Chennai Super Kings brought to an end a two-game losing streak for Punjab but there is plenty of work still left for them to do should they qualify for the play-offs. Punjab have been a perennial underachiever in the competition and despite changes in management and players, the team has always performed poorly and the pressure will be on them to correct that. For Lucknow, the team was a new entrant in the league but with 10 points in the kitty and a current fourth place in the standings, they have exceeded expectations. Punjab Kings versus Lucknow Super Giants will be telecasted on the Star Sports network and streamed on Hotstar from 7:30 PM IST. IPL 2022 Playoffs Qualification Scenario Explained: Here’s a Look at the Chances of GT, RR, SRH, LSG, RCB, PBKS, DC, KKR, and CSK of Making It To Last Four

Shikhar Dhawan scored a magnificent 88 against Chennai to put an end to a barren run of form. The stylish left-handed batsman is crucial for the team as he is one player that can single-handedly disrupt the opposition plans in the powerplays. Bhanuka Rajapaksa came in at number 3 and looked solid, which is another positive for their batting unit heading into the game against Lucknow.

K L Rahul has been in breathtaking form for Lucknow as he notched up another century in the league against Mumbai. The LSG skipper believes in leading from the front and if he fires, pressure is taken off the shoulders of the other batsmen in the top order. Krunal Pandya’s effective spells with the bowl along with Ravi Bishnoi make the duo a threat for Punjab.
