The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) have faced each other twice in the IPL, with each team winning one game. PBKS defeated LSG by five wickets at the Ekana Stadium during the first half of the IPL 2023.
The fact that the match would be played in Mohali, the team’s home stadium, gives PBKS an advantage as they get ready to square off again. The squad has the upper hand over LSG because of their familiarity with the home team.
PBKS and LSG have a history of producing nail-biting contests, and fans can expect nothing less in the upcoming IPL. If you’re a fantasy cricket enthusiast looking to create a strong captaincy option for your team in a PBKS vs LSG encounter, here are the top 3 captain picks:
KL Rahul (LSG)
In IPL 2023, Rahul has been LSG’s star performer. The stylish right-hander is a sure thing in the field as well as a solid batsman at the top of the order. He has scored the most runs for the Super Giants.
In seven games, he has scored 262 runs at an average of 37.42 and a strike rate of 113.91. Because of his consistency at the plate, he is a solid choice for the captaincy of a fantasy squad.
Sam Curran (PBKS)
The English all-rounder has proven his skill with both bat and ball while playing for the PBKS team in the IPL.
In the middle of the order, left-handed batter Curran has the potential to be very destructive. Curran is a capable bowler who can bowl both with the new ball and at the death in addition to his batting skills.
In seven games, he has scored 142 runs overall with an average of 28.4 and a strike rate of 137.86. Additionally, Curran has taken five wickets for an 8.85 average. Because of his versatility, Curran is a good choice for the captaincy on a fantasy squad for a PBKS vs LSG matchup.
Arshdeep Singh (PBKS)
For the PBKS vs LSG fantasy team, PBKS Arshdeep Singh can be a wise captain pick. The left-arm medium-fast bowler has a history of putting on strong performances, and his current form suggests that he might be a great addition to the team.
For the Kings, he has taken the most wickets. In seven games, Arshdeep has taken 13 wickets for an average of 15.69, and an economy of 8.16.
