Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: With one win and one defeat in their first two matches, Punjab Kings are all set for their third game in the Indian Premier League (IPL) against the Lucknow Super Giants at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium here, hoping to become the first team to win an away match this season.

With nine matches played till Friday evening, all teams are maintaining a perfect record on their home turfs, but the Punjab Shers hope to change this record when they take on the KL Rahul-led side on Saturday. "We plan to add another win. All teams have won their home matches, so we are hopeful to change the record," said Punjab Kings' Spin Bowling Coach Sunil Joshi at a pre-match press conference on Friday.

The pitch at Ekana Stadium garnered much attention for supporting bowlers last season, with an average first innings score of 148. The veteran Joshi spoke on how he is preparing his bowling unit to make the most of the surface in the upcoming encounter. "It's T20, and anything can happen at any time. The idea is to minimize your errors look for positives and keep the pressure. As a bowling coach, I can only coach bowlers to keep pressure on every ball and it does not matter whether the batsmen attempt a six. What we can control is that we bowl all 24 good balls," he said.
