Shivam Dubey CSK | ALL
Shiva Dube has been a consistent performer with the bat ever since he joined CSK. The left-hander is known for bashing spinners and he has also improved his game against the pace bowlers. Notably, he scored a rapid 38-ball 66 against MI in the last match.
Matheesha Pathirana CSK | BOWL
Matheesha Pathirana recorded his best bowling figures in the IPL as he took four wickets for 28 runs in the last match. The right-arm pacer is a vital cog in CSK’s pace department. Pathirana played as an impact player against MI. He may continue the role in the upcoming match as well.
Krunal Pandya LSG | ALL
Krunal Pandya did not perform well in the last two matches. However, his all-round skills make him a key player in the LSG team. Pandya has the ability to take crucial wickets and be economical at the same time.
Budget
Ravindra Jadeja CSK | all
Ravindra Jadeja is one of the most reliable players in the CSK line-up. He’s a three-dimensional player who can earn you good points in fantasy contests. Notably, the southpaw recently took three wickets against KKR and will look to continue his fine form on a balanced pitch in Lucknow.
Mustafizur Rahman CSK | bowl
Mustafizur Rahman is currently the fourth-highest wicket-taker in the series with 10 scalps. The Lucknow pitch is likely to suit the left-arm pacer well and we might see him rattle the opposition batters with his pace and swing.
Ravi Bishnoi LSG | bowl
When LSG faced DC at this venue, Bishnoi took two wickets at an impressive economy of 6.20. The right-arm off-spinner knows the conditions well and will look to add more wickets to his credit.
