KKR vs LSG Dream11 Prediction for IPL T20 Match
Match: KKR vs LSG IPL T20 Match Prediction
Time: 18 May, 07:30 PM (IST)
Series: IPL T20 Match
Venue: Dr DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai
KKR vs LSG Info:
- Andre Russell has been in fine form over the last few matches but Shreyas Iyer has been KKR’s most consistent batter this season. Iyer is our tip for KKR’s highest run scorer in this match. With the ball, Andre Russell has taken seven wickets from his last three games and we expect him to be KKR’s top wicket taker against Lucknow Super Giants.
- KL Rahul has hit two centuries and two half-centuries so far in this year’s tournament. He is our tip for Lucknow Super Giants’ highest run scorer against KKR. Avesh Khan has dismissed six batters in his last three appearances and is a strong choice for Lucknow Super Giants’ top wicket taker in this clash.
- With 32 sixes to his name so far in the 2022 IPL, Andre Russell is second only to Jos Buttler in the six hitting charts. Russell is our prediction for the Player To Hit The Most Sixes in Match 66.
