LSG vs GT Toss Factor

The team batting first has done well at the Ekana Cricket Satdium. We saw that it favoured the batters in the first match played here in this edition. However, there, too, the team defending the target emerged triumphant. So, the captain winning the toss might look to bat first at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. 

Scenario: If Lucknow Super Giants win the toss

• The Lucknow Super Giants won the first match played while batting first. They will take confidence from that result and might look to defend a target on winning the toss in this game. Quinton de Kock looked in good rhythm in the last game and will be an important choice for fantasy contests. 
• Mayank Yadav has been the team's star as far as bowling is concerned. Yadav should be automatically selected for the fantasy XIs. Alongside him, Ravi Bihsnoi could be a decisive choice. 

Scenario: If Gujarat Titans win the toss

• Shubman Gill's return to form will be a big plus for the GT team. the rhythm that he has found makes him the best choice as the point multiplier. 
• Mohit Sharma has done great with the ball for GT and will be a great option as the C or VC.
• Barring Gill and Sharma, you can select Rashid Khan, who could be risky but get a worthy option as the C or VC.

LSG vs GT Top Captain and Vice-captain Picks

Scenario: If Lucknow Super Giants win the match

Quinton de Kock (LSG)

The South African star has gradually picked up his batting rhythm in the tournament. De Kock will play a crucial role for the LSG team and will be the match's best C or VC choice. 

Nicholas Pooran (LSG)

The West Indian batter has been in great form during the tournament. Given his current form and rhythm, Nicholas Pooran is one of the best pick as the C or VC for the match. 

Scenario: If Gujarat Titans win the match

Shubman Gill (GT)

After an average season start, Shubman Gill fired back with a brilliant knock in the last match. He has regained form, and it is expected that Gill will now cash in on the opportunities with the bat. He be a prime C or VC choice from the GT side. 

Mohit Sharma (GT)

The Indian medium pacer has been the prime wicket-taker for the Titans. His skills in the death over makes him a great candidate to pick up wickets in a bunch and score high fantasy points. Mohit Sharma could be a highly rewarding C or VC choice for the match.

LSG vs GT High Risk, High Reward

KL Rahul (LSG)

KL Rahul started his campaign with a good knock. However, after that, he looked a bit off-colour. His current form makes him a risky option as the point multiplier.

Kane Williamson (GT)

Kane Williamson returned to IPL cricket after a gap of one year. He looked a bit rusty. However, he has been in good form in the international circuit recently. So, Williamson could be a risky yet high return C or VC choice for the game. 

LSG vs GT Stay Aways

Yash Thakur (LSG)

The young Indian pacer looked sloppy during his outings in the tournament. Yash Thakur will probably be the least effective as the C or VC if he gets another chance to play. 

Rahul Tewatia (GT)

This Indian lower-order batter played a flamboyant cameo in the last game and has a considerable reputation as a finisher. However, Rahul Tewatia is seldom used as a bowler, and his batting order is too low to be effective as a captain or vice-captain.
