Lucknow Super Kings vs Chennai Super Kings, IPL 2024: Predicted Playing XIs Of Both Teams And Impact Substitutes

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will lock horns with Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 34 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Friday, April 19. LSG have won three and lost three matches in the ongoing IPL 2024 season. They are placed fifth on the points table with six points. On the other hand, CSK are in third place on the points table with eight points. Out of six matches, they have won four and lost two. With that in mind, let's look at the playing XI of both sides ahead of a highly anticipated encounter.

LSG Predicted XI

Quinton de Kock

Quinton de Kock has gradually found his rhythm with the bat in IPL 2024. The South African wicketkeeper batter has scored 174 runs in six matches, including two fifty-plus scores. De Kock has fared well against CSK in the past and will be hoping for some more runs against them.

KL Rahul (captain and wicketkeeper)

Lucknow's captain and wicketkeeper KL Rahul will open the innings along with de Kock. He has scored 204 runs in six matches and is LSG's second-highest runs scorer this season with a highest score of 58.

Deepak Hooda

With Devdutt Padikkal struggling to find form this season, Deepak Hooda could bat at No. 3 for the Super Giants. Due to a lack of game-time, Hooda hasn't been among the runs for LSG but he is quite capable of adding crucial runs to the scoreboard and has made more than 1,000 IPL runs in his career.

Ayush Badoni

Ayush Badoni has been one of the key members in LSG's batting unit this year. Although Badoni hasn't been at his best this season, his knock of 55 not out against Delhi Capitals showed what he's capable of when on song and he'll be hoping to produce more such knocks in the upcoming games.
