Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) handed a crushing defeat to Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the 10th match of IPL 2023. LSG won the match by 5 wickets & chased down the target of 122 with ease in 16 overs. KL Rahul played a match-winning knock of 35 runs in 31 balls & struck 4 fours. LSG now have 4 points in 3 matches with an NRR (net run rate) of +1.35 and now are on top of the points table.
Not many expected LSG to bounce back this strongly after losing against Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Krunal Pandya’s all-around performance proved to be the difference in the end. Krunal Pandya took 3 wickets & gave away 18 runs in his 4-over spell & later played a quick knock of 34 runs in 23 balls and smashed 4 fours & 1 six.

SRH skipper Aiden Markram had a terrible start to IPL 2023. Markram was bamboozled by Krunal Pandya on the very first ball when Krunal knocked over his off-stump. Aiden Markram along with head coach Brian Lara perhaps would regret their decision of leaving out Abhishek Sharma from the side.
SRH need to go back to the drawing board, in both of their matches they have suffered massive defeats. The problem with SRH is that they don’t have that many quality Indian batters present in the side, we witnessed how Aiden Markram & Harry Brook fell into the trap of spinners.

LSG on the other side would be buoyed by their performance after a near-perfect game. Amit Mishra, the veteran spinner took 2 wickets in his 4 overs & gave away 23 runs. Amit Mishra made a statement that age is just a number, a lot of experts had raised their voices for picking the 40-year-old spinner in the auction.

Brian Lara been tactically schooled by Andy Flower today . Team choice , impact change and bowling order all a little baffling . Although 121 was always going to be short on any surface @LucknowIPL #LSGvsSRH #IPL2023

Poor tactics and captaincy from Srh…
Starting from Playing XI, Sub to Bowlers utility 👎👎👎#LSGvsSRH

Out of 16 overs , srh just bowled 6 over of spins and that too just 1 of Washington Sundar
Kick the management out , i am really feeling sad for srh fans(jitne thode bhote hai) #LSGvsSRH— CricSb (@Sportsetter) April 7, 2023
On slow rank turner:
LSG spinners: 13-0-65-6
SRH: Adil Rashid did not complete the spell after 16 overs, Sundar bowled 1 over, and Markandey wasn't even in 12.
What are data analysts doing? Were they even serious for this match? #TATAIPL#IPL2023 #LSGvsSRH @saikalogic

#IPL2023 #LSGvsSRH great captaincy by Markram to not bowl spinners on a turning track pic.twitter.com/insSu5gWm7

Only SRH will go for a fast bowler impact sub on a absolutely slow turning track.
On top of that, they give the ball to Umran Mallik on this pitch 🤦#SunrisersHyderabad #LSGvsSRH #LSGvSRH
