KKR vs LSG, DY Patil Stadium. Kolkata Knight Riders are in good form, winning three of the last four games. On the other hand, Lucknow Super Giants have lost their previous two games. So, KKR has the winning momentum with them. LSG has the upper hand in head-to-head.
LSG needs this game to be won to qualify for the playoffs. KKR needs to win the match and hopes DC loses their last league match against MI.
Just when the opening pair was looking good in touch, Rahane got injured. Either Aaron Finch or Sam Billings will come in place of Rahane. KKR has no possible good opening batter. There could be only a lucky day for Finch or Billings or whoever opens with Venkatesh Iyer.
