Quinton de Kock

De Kock has gone under the radar with his performance. He scored an 80-odd when the two teams last played earlier in the season. The South African wicketkeeper-batsman top-scored for his side against Punjab Kings scoring 46.

Deepak Hooda

Hooda was elevated to the number three spot against Punjab Kings with Manish Pandey missing out. He scored a crucial 34 off 28 balls and played his part in taking LSG to 153 which in the end proved to be enough.

Marcus Stoinis

Stoinis has not played to his potential for LSG so far. He was dismissed for just 1 against Punjab Kings. He needs to contribute to his side given that they drafted him as one of their marquee players. The management would hope that he gets back to form in this game.

Krunal Pandya

Pandya took 2 for 11 with the ball against Punjab Kings dismissing Jitesh Sharma and Bhanuka Rajapaksa. He has contributed with the ball in most of the games. With the bat, he has been handy too as admitted by KL Rahul himself.

Ayush Badoni

Badoni has been given the role of a finisher for his side. He played that role to perfection in most of the previous games but has lost out on a bit of his form in the second half. However, he will get the backing of the management.

Jason Holder

Holder will slot in at number seven and share the responsibilities of finishing the innings alongside Badoni. He did not have a good game against Punjab scoring just 11 runs with the bat and going wicketless with the ball.

Dushmantha Chameera

Chameera had a good game against Punjab Kings. He took scored 17 off 10 in the final overs and took two crucial wickets with the ball for his side. He will be preferred over Andrew Tye given that he has performed consistently in the last few games.

Mohsin Khan

Mohsin Khan had a match to remember too against PBKS. He scored 13 off 6 with the bat and took 3/ 24 with the ball. He will be the second seamer in the playing XI.

Avesh Khan

Avesh Khan will be the third seamer in the Lucknow Super Giants playing XI. He has taken 11 wickets from 8 matches so far in IPL 2022.

Ravi Bishnoi

Bishnoi completes the strongest-looking squad for LSG for their clash against Delhi Capitals. So far in the IPL, he has taken seven wickets in nine matches so far this season.
