Lucknow Super Giants will take on defending champions Gujarat Titans in the 30th match of the ongoing IPL 2023 at the Ekana Cricket Stadium on Saturday, April 22. KL Rahul’s team head into the contest on the back of a morale-boosting victory against table toppers and pre-tournament favourites Rajasthan Royals in their previous encounter.
Meanwhile, their upcoming opponents, Gujarat Titans, succumbed to a disappointing defeat against Sanju Samson’s Men in Pink at their home ground in their previous outing. However, the Gujarat skipper will take comfort in the fact they are unbeaten against their upcoming opponents.

LSG vs GT Pitch Report
The previous encounter at this venue saw the batters struggle for timing for the most part of the game on a sluggish surface. The pitch is expected to be on the slower side, with the spinners expected to play a big role in the proceedings. The team winning the toss would be inclined to bat first at this venue.

LSG vs GT Probable Best Performers
Probable best batter
With 228 runs to his name in five outings, Shubman Gill is the leading run scorer for the reigning champions in IPL 2023 so far. The stylish opener is in scintillating form since the turn of the year and is showing no signs of slowing down either. The young Indian star will be hoping to climb up the scoring charts in the upcoming fixture.
Probable best bowler
Rashid Khan:
The star Afghan spinner took a bit of punishment in the previous outing against Rajasthan Royals when Sanju Samson smashed him for a hat-trick of sixes in an over. However, he has scalped 11 wickets in the tournament so far, the second most behind RCB’s Mohammed Siraj. He would be hoping to get back to his usual best in the upcoming match.
