KKR vs LSG Dream11 Prediction:
- Rinku Singh hit his third half-century of the 2023 IPL in the last game and the left-hander is our tip for Kolkata Knight Riders’ highest run scorer in this match. With the ball, Varun Chakravarthy has been very impressive in this campaign and he is our pick for Kolkata Knight Riders’ top wicket taker against Chennai Super Kings.
- Quinton de Kock has hit over 9000 T20 runs and we expect the opener to be Lucknow Super Giants’ highest run scorer in this game. Ravi Bishnoi will enjoy the spin friendly conditions and he is a strong choice for Lucknow Super Giants’ top wicket taker on Saturday evening.
- We expect Ravi Bishnoi to get plenty of turn from this wicket and we are backing him to take over 1.5 wickets in the clash.

In spite of having a fully fit squad, Lucknow Super Giants still made changes to their team ahead of their impressive win over Mumbai Indians on Tuesday. Avesh Khan and Kyle Mayers were both left out with Deepak Hooda and Naveen-ul-Haq coming into the side.

Varun Chakravarthy
the spinner picked up the key wickets of Ruturaj Gaikwaf and Ajinkya Rahane in the last game. He is one dismissal away from bringing up his first 20-wicket IPL campaign.

Young leg-spinner Sharma has impressed in IPL 2023 season and would be a strong choice to come into the team when fielding. Jagadeesan is a talented batter with a top score of 36 in this campaign.
