LSG vs CSK IPL 2024 Probable 11: CSK will eye second spot in the points table

LSG vs CSK IPL 2024 key players with KL Rahul, MS Dhoni and Shivam Dube

The Lucknow Super Giants will lock horns with the Chennai Super Kings in today’s IPL match at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. The night match is scheduled to start at 7:30 PM IST.

Chennai Super Kings will be aiming to climb to the second position on the IPL 2024 points table when they face off against Lucknow Super Giants at the Ekana Stadium on April 19. The two teams have experienced contrasting fortunes in their recent matches. While Ruturaj Gaikwad's side, still led by the incomparable Mahendra Singh Dhoni, enters the game on the back of consecutive victories, LSG, captained by KL Rahul, has encountered a minor setback with two successive defeats.

Considering LSG's recent batting struggles, despite possessing significant firepower, it remains uncertain how they will fare against an opponent boasting a diverse bowling attack. In terms of team dynamics, Lucknow may opt to replace Quinton de Kock with Kyle Mayers in their playing 11. Conversely, Moeen Ali might step in for Daryl Mitchell in the CSK lineup, given the likelihood of the Lucknow pitch favouring spinners.
