PBKS, after winning over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, are fourth on the points table with six wins, and one no result, from 10 games, while LSG, back after a week-long break from the competition, are at sixth place with five wins from 11 matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Shreyas Iyer's strong leadership and good batting form have boosted PBKS. Iyer's tactical acumen in leading PBKS to victories and technical adjustments against short balls has meant that the right-handed batter is having a dream time in the competition.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
It also helps PBKS that Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya have been in great form at the top of the order. In bowling, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh and Marco Jansen have been fantastic, which adds cutting edge to PBKS\u2019 good showing in the competition.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
On the other hand, with the situation dire for LSG, they are under more pressure to win their remaining games if they aim to enter the playoffs. Their skipper Rishabh Pant is struggling with the bat, which means responsibilities increase on the dangerous top order of Mitchell Marsh, Aiden Markram and Nicholas Pooran to give the team big scores.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
With the ball, Mayank Yadav\u2019s return against Mumbai Indians was heartening, though the rest of bowling line-up didn\u2019t fare well as per the expectations in that 54-run loss. LSG have a 3-2 head-to-head edge over PBKS, but they will be mindful of Iyer & Co\u2019s red-hot form as the competition nears its business end.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
