Nicholas Pooran vs Harshal Patel
Harshal Patel will be up against former West Indies captain Nicholas Pooran, who is in search of form in the second half of the tournament.
Harshal, on the other hand, has had decent outings in the last couple of games and will look to replicate that in the match against the Lucknow Super Giants scheduled to be played on Monday.

The fast bowler picked up three wickets in the last game and will have to deal with Abhishek Sharma, who will look to get a big score under his belt.
Heinrisch Klaasen vs Digvesh Rathi
Digvesh Rathi has surpassed Ravi Bishnoi to become LSG's leading spinner and will look to put on a strong performance when he bowls to Henrich Klaasen, who is known to take on the spinners.
