LSG vs GT key battles:
Mitchell Marsh vs Mohammed Siraj
Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh will be up against an in-form Mohammed Siraj when he comes to open the innings for LSG. The battle promises to be a mouth-watering one between bat and ball, taking into account the form of Marsh and Siraj in the ongoing tournament.
Nicholas Pooran vs Prasidh Krishna
Former West Indies captain Nicholas Pooran is expected to face Prasidh Krishna in the middle overs of the Lucknow vs Gujarat match on Saturday. Both Prasidh and Pooran have been the stand-out players for the team and will look to get the better of each other.
Shubman Gill vs Shardul Thakur
Shubman Gill, who was outdone by Jofra Archer in the last match against RR, would be itching to hit the field against LSG. The right-hander will face the challenge of Shardul Thakur in the powerplay, who has a reputation for making things happen with the ball.
Sai Sudharshan vs Digvesh Rathi
The shining light in an otherwise struggling bowling lineup, Digvesh Singh Rathi, will fancy his chances of bowling to an in-form Sai Sudharshan, who is coming into the match on the back of a match-winning half-century against RR.
LSG vs GT Key Players:
LSG - Mitchell Marsh, Nicholas Pooran, Rishabh Pant, Shardul Thakur, Digvesh Singh Rathi
GT - Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharshan, Jos Buttler, Sai Kishore, Mohammed Siraj

Meanwhile, GT would like to carry the momentum the team has gained with a win over RR in the upcoming match against LSG.
