The IPL 2022 hoopla continues. The Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants teams will meet tomorrow in the Indian Premier League. This match will be played at the DY Patil stadium in Mumbai starting at 7:30 p.m. KKR needs a big win to keep their playoff hopes alive. At the same time, Lucknow would also like to win this match to reach the playoffs.
This is the last league game for both teams. The KKR team will not make the playoffs after winning this match. However, their hopes of reaching the top four will live on. On the other hand, if Lucknow wins, it will be confirmed that he is in the top 2.
The pitch at Mumbai’s DY Patil Stadium has gotten pretty sluggish now. Afternoon game, still the dew will not play a role. Here, in the early innings, the pitch will prove useful to the batters, but in the second innings, the pitch is likely to slow down. In such a situation, the team that wins the toss may choose to bat first.
The Lucknow team looks very strong on paper. While Kolkata’s strength lies in their strong bowling, the Lucknow team seems pretty balanced in both the batting and bowling departments. However, our match prediction meter indicates that Lucknow will win in this match.
