Lucknow have players who have performed in fleeting moments, but Punjab have been consistent. With the match moving to Dharamsala, Punjab would be hoping to carry on the momentum forward.
Shreyas Iyer has been Punjab's most consistent batter in the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League, with 360 runs from 10 innings at an average of 51.42 and a strike rate of 180.90.
Bet on Yuzvendra Chahal to deliver big. After a slew of sub-par performances in the first few days, Chahal has made a massive comeback in the last few matches to be Punjab's best bowler in the season so far. He has already picked 13 wickets at an average of 21.07 and an economy rate of 9.44.
This is going to be the first match of the season at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Stadium in Dharamsala, but historically, the venue has always supported the chasing sides.
There is no threat of rain in Dharamsala on the match day. But the beautiful win in the mountains will be helpful for the pacers in the event to extract some movement.
