LSG vs CSK: In a pivotal match that concludes the halfway point for both teams, the fifth-place Lucknow Super Giants take on the assured Chennai Super Kings, who occupy the third spot in the table.
LSG had an exceptional record going into the fifth game of the season; they had never lost a game in which they had to defend more than 160 runs. However, that winning run has come to an end as KL Rahul’s team was unable to hold 160 twice in a row—against DC at home and KKR away.
After suffering two straight defeats away from home, the men in yellow turned things around by defeating KKR at home and crushing Mumbai at Wankhede to reclaim the momentum.
Chennai and Lucknow have split their three meetings thus far, with one victory apiece. And to advance further in the protracted competition, both teams will be trying to take the lead with a convincing victory.
Mumbai Indians won the match against Punjab Kings as per our prediction in the MI vs PBKS 33rd IPL match. For more accurate predictions and IPL updates, visit the blog section of Exchmarket.
Match: LSG vs CSK 34th Match (Indian Premier League 2024)
Date: Friday, April 19, 2024
Time: 7:30 PM
Venue: Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow
On the bowling front, Lucknow Super Kings have undoubtedly been a little disappointing. While Mayank Yadav, the speedster, remained sidelined, the management of LSG brought on Shamar Joseph, another youthful fast bowler.
However, he had very little effect on KKR. Not a single bowler did. Only Mohsin Khan appeared to be in good rhythm; he took a few wickets and bowled economically. In 5.4 overs, Ravi Bishnoi, Yash Thakur, and Krunal Pandya let up 56 runs apiece, making little progress for LSG. These bowlers would be hoping that their batsmen bat well and put a big score on the board given their bad form, giving them an extra 25 to 30 runs to defend.
But by amassing enormous totals on the board, the batsmen are not doing their bowlers any favors. The irregularity of QDK is somewhat harming LSG. Although KL Rahul has performed admirably to reach about forty, he loses his wicket before he can take advantage of the early momentum.
Marcus Stoinis, Krunal Pandya, and Deepak Hooda are going through a rough patch and are in severe need of runs to maintain their spots in the starting eleven. Despite not receiving much help from other batsmen, Nicholas Pooran has proven in the final overs that he possesses the attacking ability to lead his team to an impressive total on his own.
A few days ago at Wankhede, Chennai Super Kings put on one of their best games of the season against Mumbai.
CSK’s total of 206, which was marginally above average, was insufficient to hold MI off for very long. To thwart MI’s pursuit, Theekshana and Pathirana emerged as the main bowlers and did so with discipline and control. They performed admirably to re-enter the game following MI’s early counterattack.
With his cunning action, the SL bowler Pathirana outwitted four MI batsmen, making it his night. Back in Chepauk, Jadeja was among the wickets against KKR. When a team plays as a unit, they consistently produce players with the ball, such as Chennai.
Rahane and Rachin, the new opening order, also failed to leave an impression on their first hit when using the bat. After the first two games, Rachin didn’t really contribute, and Rahane wasn’t the best in general. Nonetheless, they are excellent cricket players and will be looking to turn the tide.
Shivam Dube blitzed his way into a fifty scoring more than ten boundaries, while Ruturaj Gaikwad hammered out another match-winning score with the bat. However, MS Dhoni (20 off 4) stole the show by hitting some crucial blows off Pandya to start an attack in the last over.
Chennai Super Kings have defeated Lucknow Super Giants in one of the three games that they have played head-to-head, with one match ending in ties. Players like Shivam Dube, Rachin Ravindra, and Ruturaj Gaikwad are getting closer to reaching important IPL career milestones as the match progresses. Setting the stage for a thrilling match between these two strong teams, individual records and other stats are at risk.

The Lucknow stadium, the Ekana, will host this game. When these teams faced off at this location last year, the rain had other ideas, forcing the game to be called off with both teams splitting the points.
The pitch’s characteristics are fairly similar to those of MA Chidambaram in Chepauk: it’s a slow, dry surface with some fair ball turning. And that will give CSK’s spinners a sense of belonging. This location doesn’t receive a lot of points since the boundaries are wider and frequently more difficult to navigate. After a hot day, the weather is predicted to cool down in the evening, making it perfect for a nighttime encounter.
Toss does play a decisive and important role in determining the outcome of the match. The team batting first at the Ekana Stadium has managed to win the last two matches. Therefore, the toss-winning team must prefer batting first to prevail in the upcoming match.
Best batter: KL Rahul (LSG), Ruturaj Gaikwad (CSK)
Best bowler: Shamar Joseph (LSG), Mustafizur Rahman (CSK)
Best all-rounder: Krunal Pandya (LSG), Ravindra Jadeja (CSK)
Player of the match: Rohit Sharma (CSK)
This match should see CSK defeat LSG, as they have won their last two games after suffering two losses. They possess the strength and dexterity to outclass LSG bowlers as well as the depth and variety to pose a threat to LSG hitters. LSG is our pick to win this match.
