The Lucknow Super Giants are ready to take on the Gujarat Titans in the 21st match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024). The game will be played at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium on April 7th at 7:30 PM IST. 

The Super Giants have looked unstoppable so far since the arrival of Mayank Yadav. Apart from Yadav, they have some big names that might emerge as match-winners for LSG. Here is a look at three names who can be the match-winners for the team in this game.

In the last edition of the IPL, we saw slowish and sluggy wickets being presented at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. However, in IPL 2024, the only game played here saw a much better batting wicket. It is expected that the batters will enjoy the new ball here, and as the game progresses, the pacers with good slowers and cutters might be effective. 


3 Match-winners for LSG vs GT

KL Rahul

KL Rahul is yet to find a rhythm with the bat in this edition of the Indian Premier League. However, Rahul has a good record at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. He has scored 200 runs here in six innings at an average of 40.00 and a strike rate of 116.30. His steady batting style could provide the solidity to LSG in this game. 

Mayank Yadav

This young Indian pacer has been in great form in the tournament. Mayank Yadav has bowled eight overs and picked up six wickets, conceding only 41 runs. His current form makes Yadav a prime contender as a match-winner for RCB. 

Ravi Bishnoi

Ravi Bishnoi has been far from his best in the tournament. However, he has an excellent record at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, making him a vital LSG cog. Bishnoi has nine wickets in seven matches at an economy of 7.29 while conceding 186 runs in 25.3 overs.
