KKR vs LSG: The Kolkata Knight Riders have won three of the first four games of the season, which is an amazing start.
They barely defeated SRH in the first match at Eden Gardens. They followed that up with victories away from home against RCB and DC in their next two meetings. But when they fell to CSK in Chennai, their winning run came to an end.
The Lucknow Super Giants’ path in this year’s competition hasn’t changed much thus far. They were defeated by the Royals in their first game in Jaipur. However, they immediately recovered to win three straight games against PBKS, RCB, and GT. It is to move up to third position in the points standings, just below Kolkata. The similarities stop there, though.
LSG has a perfect head-to-head record against KKR. They prevailed in each of the previous three meetings. LSG will be concentrating on maintaining its dominance. KKR will be looking to go one-up on them and establish themselves against the new team.

Match: KKR vs LSG 28th Match (Indian Premier League 2024)
Date: Sunday, April 14, 2024
Time: 3:30 PM
Venue: Eden Gardens, Kolkata
Two franchises faced the wrath of Kolkata Knight Riders in this campaign. It was against Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore. They left the fans biting their nails during the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. KKR prevailed in that match and it was a close call.
Their in-form batsmen, V Iyer, Andre Russell, and Sunil Narine, have enjoyed playing on pitches where the ball has come onto the bat. This has made scoring runs easier. However, they were somewhat exposed on a slow pitch at the MA Chidambaram Stadium against a strong bowling attack. It is as if the KKR batters were restricted to a below-average score by the CSK’s spinners Jadeja, Theekshana, and fast bowler Deshpande.
With the help available, KKR’s spin unit was unable to make use of it and lost wickets. It allowed CSK to win with 7 wickets and 14 balls remaining. KKR will have five home games starting with this matchup against LSG, thus they’ll be eager to play in front of their home crowd.
However, they might need to take care of a few issues such as the inconsistent form of Rinku Singh and Mitchell Starc.
The Lucknow Super Giants have done incredibly well to return to the tournament with three straight victories after having a dismal start to their campaign in Jaipur. They lost some of the momentum they were building up at home to the Delhi Capitals.
However, they will find solace in the knowledge that they will be playing a team that they have never lost a game against, all season long. Marcus Stoinis and Devdutt Padikkal are not playing at their best, and the middle order of the team appears to be a little weak.
After losing 7 wickets for 94 runs against DC in the thirteenth over, Ayush Badoni played a useful knock (55 off 35) to offer LSG bowlers something to bowl at. It is after they lost 7 wickets for a mere 94 runs. It appeared that LSG’s batting relies hard on KL Rahul and Nicholas Pooran.
With Mayank Yadav not playing, the bowling appears to be a little lacking. No one has been able to come up and make as much of an impression as the Tear Away Quick, who troubled the batters of the Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru with his fast bowling.

The game will take place in Kolkata’s Eden Gardens. The previous time these two teams played at this location, it ended in a cliffhanger as LSG defeated the hosts by one run while displaying steely nerves.
Generally speaking, the Eden Gardens pitch is favorable for batting. However, for pace bowlers who are prepared to bend their backs, the surface offers more zip and nippiness. For the most part, the weather during the meeting is predicted to be clear, with somewhat warmer temperatures.
If they win the toss here, LSG will be pleased to bat first as they have won three of their games doing so. However, by urging the visitors to chase, KKR will be aiming to confuse LSG.
Best batter: Rinku Singh (KKR), KL Rahul (LSG)
Best bowler: Varun Chakravarthy (KKR), Yash Thakur (LSG)
Best all-rounder: Andre Russell (KKR), Krunal Pandya (LSG)
Player of the match: Rinku Singh (KKR)
On paper, Kolkata Knight Riders appear to be the superior team since they have several players who are performing well both with the bat and the ball. These players can put the club in a strong position and work their way to success. We think KKR will triumph over LSG. We are supporting Kolkata Knight Riders to win this match.
