On Tuesday, April 1, Lucknow Super Giants will lock horns against Punjab Kings at the Ekana Stadium. It will be a high-octane match as both teams are fresh off a win. LSG handed SRH a thumping win away from home, while the Kings handed GT a defeat in the Narendra Modi Stadium.

Meanwhile, this article will shed light on Lucknow Super Giants and the changes that they can make for the upcoming match in their playing XI. 

Aiden Markram To Be Dropped; Breetzke Makes Way

Aiden Markram is struggling for runs despite his teammates scoring runs for fun. So far, in the two matches, Markram has amassed just 16 runs in two matches and now there are cries for his ouster from the team. 

Meanwhile, Matthew Breetzke can replace Markram in the line-up as he has done well in the past year. Lets look at Breetzke's stats so far.

No Change In Winning Formula? 

It would be stupid to change anything that is working fine. Thus, LSG wouldn't be looking to make more changes to the line-up as all other stars are in form. Mitchell Marsh has scored two back-to-back fifties, while Nicholas Pooran is the leading run-getter so far in the tournament.

Rishabh Pant is looking for turnaround of things, but Ayush Badoni and David Miller have performed their role well. 

Mayank Yadav To Return With The Ball?

Mayank Yadav is currently out of action because of a back and tow injury. However, he won't feature against PBKS as he is yet to full recover from his injury. Thus, LSG would continue with Prince Yadav in the playing XI. 

Meanwhile, Shardul Thakur, Avesh Khan, and Prince would be the pace battery with Ravi Bishnoi and Digvesh Rathi as the spin options.
