In today’s IPL 2024 match, the Chennai Super Kings will take on the Lucknow Super Giants at 7:30 pm IST. Both teams have won four matches out of seven, with CSK currently sitting in fourth place on the points table.
In terms of team news, Ajinkya Rahane, who has been recovering from a calf niggle, is expected to continue batting in his usual position in the middle order for CSK. This could see Shivam Dube playing as an Impact Player if CSK bowl first, or Matheesha Pathirana coming in as a substitute if they bat first.
On the other hand, Lucknow Super Giants are still dealing with the absence of Mayank Yadav, and they may bring in Devdutt Padikkal despite his recent poor form. Padikkal and Mohsin Khan are expected to be the Impact Players for LSG in today’s match.
The predicted playing XIs for today’s match include Ruturaj Gaikwad leading CSK, while KL Rahul will captain LSG. The match is set to take place at the fortress Cheapuk, where CSK have won all three matches this season. However, LSG’s experience on slow pitches could make it an even-steven affair.
