Preview
In the 28th match of the Uttar Pradesh T20 2023, Gorakhpur Lions will compete against Kashi Rudras at the Green Park in Kanpur. During their first meeting earlier in the season, the Rudras defeated the Lions by 31 runs, to register one of their most impressive victories in the tournament. Now, a win in any of their upcoming matches will secure the spot in the semi-final for Kashi, which means that Gorakhpur will have to beat them to potentially stay in the hunt for top four spot in the UP T20.

Analysis
For a team with such a high-quality batting lineup, a poor season for Gorakhpur Lions in the UP T20 thus far, was something not many experts or fans saw coming. The bowling department hasn’t done well for the Lions either, which is one of the biggest reasons why they have won only one match in eight in the tournament.
The batting lineup of Kashi Rudras put up a fighting total of 148-8 in their highly important encounter against Kanpur Superstars, due to the impressive innings from the captain Karan Sharma and Kamil Khan. They defended the target in a low scoring thriller by 4 runs, after Mohammad Sharim picked up three wickets, while Shiva Singh delivered one of the most economical spells in the UP T20.
