PLAYERS WATCH OUT FOR

Lucknow Super Giants

1)Quinton de Kock – Team will expect in form batter to play like the last game as he scored gritty 80 runs and helped them to get over the line.

2)Ravi Bishnoi – He has caught some big names in the game with his bowling and will try to get the big names in this match also as Jos Buttler is looking comfortable in scoring runs.

Rajasthan Royals

1)Ravichandran Ashwin – Can this spin wizzard stop de Kock from scoring big? He will have to bowl on the right length to do so, if the bowlers can’t get him early it will be hard to stop him later.

2)Yashasvi Jaiswal – Team will expect him to be in the middle with Jos Buttler to set the foundation strong with his batting, previously he is unable to convert his start into big scores.
