Lucknow Super Giants
Kl Rahul will look to start on high not only as a batter but also as a leader, especially after guiding the team to successive playoffs in the first two seasons. LSG would depend on Quinton de Kock to start the inning brightly alongside Rahul. Marcus Stonis and Nicholas Pooran will be there to bat in the middle and score important runs for the team. The 41-year-old veteran leg-break bowler Amit Mishra is in the squad and could play an important role for the side. But, Mark Wood and David Willey are ruled out of the tournament and Mayank Yadav and Mohsin Khan are also injured. The responsibility will be upon Naveen ul Haq and Shamar Joseph to lead the bowling unit.
