Chennai Super Kings (CSK) vs Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) Pick and Predictions 03/31/2022

The 14th edition IPL champions Chennai Super Kings are bound to play the new team Lucknow Super Giants for an IPL matchup. The two teams are looking to bounce back after losing their season opener match. The CSK was defeated by 6 wickets against the KKR. Whereas the LSG was defeated by 5 wickets against the new team Gujarat Titans.

The match between Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Super Giants will be held at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on March 31. It will start at 7:30 p.m. IST.

The Super Kings managed to retain most of their players from the 2021 championship line-up. Several of them are: Ms Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, Moeen Ali and Ruturaj Gaikwad.

Moeen Ali missed CSK’s last game because he was having a visa problem. But he will be playing for this matchup against LSG as he is already in India and has finished the three-day quarantine requirement.

Excitement Around the Beginning of the season- Chennai Super Kings vs Lucknow Super Giants Match 

CSK finished 2nd in the IPL 2021 edition, but they were crowned champions. They have lost a game against the KKR in the season opener match though.

CSK lost the toss and Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway, who were the Super Kings' opening pair, were immediately sent back. Umesh Yadav was the pick of the bowlers for the Knight Riders as they won the toss and decided to field.

Robin Uthappa's brief stay at the office ended in a sensational stumping by Sheldon Jackson, who was able to complete his dismissal in the eighth over. The Super Kings were struggling at 57 for four at half-time.

LSG is a new team that debuted in this 15th edition of IPL. They have only gone through one game as of late, and they lost that match against another new team, Gujarat Titans.

Gujarat skipper Hardik Pandya won the Toss and opted to field first. That decision gave GT an advantage of sending one of LSG’s best KL Rahul away early in the match, thanks to the stellar play by the Player of the Match Mohammad Shami.

Not only Rahul, Quinton de Kock was also cleaned up by Shami in the very next Over.

CSK vs LSG Match Information

CSK vs LSG Betting Strategies

There are a ton of factors to assess in the days leading up to the match. The CSK vs LSG betting strategies will depend on which team elects to bat or bowl first. The pitch condition is very important in the limited-overs cricket format and this holds true even when making the CSK vs LSG predictions.

Who will Win

The CSK vs LSG predictions will depend heavily on recent form and pitch condition. Both are able to have a lot of influence on the total score put up by the team batting first or the manner of a chase instigated by the team which elected to bat second. The form of individual players is often crucial to the performance of a team in the entire series or in the case of the Super Kings vs Lucknow game.

Top Batsman

The assessment of the best batsmen in the Chennai vs Lucknow game can be done by looking at factors like recent form, form throughout the IPL series, strike rate, batting order, record against a specific team and record against a specific bowler. Invariably, the assessment is likely to lead to batsmen like Moeen Ali, a talented and attacking top-order batsman who can mix classical shots with a bit of force. 

Top Bowler

This market involves going with a bowler who can take a lot of wickets while conceding very few runs. Some pitch conditions may be suitable for seamers who work magic with the new ball, while some pitches will help the ball turn so much that they are a delight for spinners. The number of wickets taken for a team in the T20 cricket format - with a good economy and strike rate - are useful to predict this market.

Player Betting

The player betting is also part of the CSK vs LSG predictions and it would invariably feature a player like MS Dhoni, who will look to continue his impressive form against LSG on Thursday. This market is about going for a player who produces an all-rounder performance for his side. The contribution may come from the runs, balls, or even in catches.

Partnership Betting

The opening partnership is one of the key wickets in the CSK vs LSG predictions. This partnership will look to get maximum runs during the power play overs. Moeen Ali is an important name in the Chennai vs Lucknow game as one of the opening players. He has been instrumental in the success of the team by hitting 357 runs in 15 innings with a 25.50 average.
