Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings
The Lucknow Super Giants went head-to-head with the Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens in their last game, where Kolkata won the toss and chose to field first. The Super Giants batted at a decent rate, however, they were losing wickets at regular intervals which slowed them down towards the end and they ended on a total of 161/7. Top batsman was Nicholas Pooran who scored 45 off 32 balls.
They performed well in the field and their bowlers managed to take early wickets, but they then began to struggle, and they could not take out another batsman for the remainder of the innings, allowing the batsmen from Kolkata to easily cruise to the target and win by 8 wickets with 26 balls remaining. Top bowler was Mohsin Khan who took 2 wickets for 29 runs in his 4 overs.
The Chennai Super Kings took on the Mumbai Indians in their last match that occurred in Wankhede, with the Indians winning the toss and sending the Super Kings in to bat. The Super Kings had a shocking start to the innings losing an early wicket but thereafter they managed to stabilise and built some important partnerships that got them to a total of 206/4. Top batsman was Ruturaj Gaikwad who scored 69 runs off 40 balls.
Although the Super Kings struggled to pick up wickets with the ball in hand, they were able to keep their opponents batting at a lower run rate and when they wickets began to fall, they restricted the Indians even more, winning the match by 20 runs. Top bowler was Matheesha Pathirana who took 4 wickets for 28 in his 4 over spell.

Lucknow Super Giants 23/20
Chennai Super Kings 7/10
Suggested Bet: KL Rahul – over 2.5 sixes at 17/20
He hit a total of 3 fours in his last game and he is the sort of player who can caress the ball to the boundary as well as bludgeon it over the ropes.
Suggested Bet: Ravindra Jadeja over 1.5 wickets at 22/10
He didn’t get a wicket in his last game but picked up 3 the match before that and I am looking for another decent haul from him.
