Vaibhav Sooryavanshi vs Mohammed Shami
The 15-year-old has performed with sheer dominance whenever he has faced the biggest names of International cricket. He will once again look to capitalise against a bowling lineup that might be a bit demotivated following the thrashing received from the Punjab Kings batters. However, Mohammed Shami has continued to strike with the new ball, and his first over against Sooryavanshi will be a highly anticipated contest.
Yashasvi Jaiswal vs Prince Yadav
Fellow opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has backed Sooryavanshi’s firepower with ice-cool composure. Jaiswal has been striking over 160 this IPL and is the second-highest run getter for RR, right behind the young opener. On the other hand, Prince Yadav is LSG’s biggest positive this season, a bowler who has not only picked wickets but has left opposition searching for runs.
Mitchell Marsh vs Jofra Archer
Australian opener Mitchell Marsh has not been seen in the same touch as last season; however, in the last two games, Marsh has had starts, but could not play the dominant role to win it for his side. This time, he will be aiming for a dominant performance, but he will be up against the in-form Jofra Archer, who has unleashed the knack of picking wickets in the first over of his spell in this IPL.
