Pitch Report
Weather Report for April 19, 2024
Analysis
The Lucknow Super Giants, after a strong start to the season, have tapered away with back-to-back defeats. The LSG batting has struggled to score runs with KL Rahul, Quinton de Kock and Marcus Stoinis failing to convert their starts into big scores. In the bowling department, LSG has also lost some edge since the absence of fast bowling sensation Mayank Yadav while the spinners have done a decent job.
In contrast, the Chennai Super Kings have continued to perform at their consistent best despite a few hiccups in the 2024 season. The CSK batting with the likes of Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shivam Dube and Ajinkya Rahane scoring the bulk of runs. On the bowling front, Matheesha Pathirana has been the pick of the lot with his beaming yorkers and slower balls while Mustafizur Rahman and Tushar Deshpande have continued performing well
