According to the IPL schedule 2022, the 42nd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will see the Punjab Kings (PBKS) take on the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Friday (April 29).
The Lucknow Super Giants have lived up to their pre-season hype, winning five out of their eight IPL 2022 games so far. While the duo of Quinton de Kock and KL Rahul have done well at the top of the order, their bowling unit has been key to their success. They now face an upbeat Punjab Kings side who come into the game on the back of a morale-boosting win over CSK. While their bowling unit has blown hot and cold, the onus will be on their power-packed batting unit to deliver in this game. All in all, an entertaining game beckons with both IPL teams keen to sustain their momentum as the IPL points table 2022 slowly begins to take shape.

Match Details
PBKS vs LSG, Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, Match 42
Date and Time: 29th April 2022, 7:30 PM IST
Venue: Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai
Pitch Report
The previous game at the Wankhede Stadium between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Gujarat Titans (GT) saw nearly 400 runs being scored with a similar sort of surface expected for today's fixture as well. There hasn't been much swing available for pacers at the venue in IPL 2022, with batters going hard in the powerplay phase. As the match progresses, the bowlers will look to vary their pace and lines to get the most off the surface. Dew is likely to play a part as well, enticing teams to prefer chasing upon winning the toss.
Today’s PBKS vs LSG Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Quinton de Kock: Quinton de Kock hasn't fired in recent games, throwing away promising starts in the powerplay phase. However, he remains one of the most consistent batters in the world, with his ability against both pace and spin being decent. With De Kock coming up against a favorable match-up as well, he is a must-have in your PBKS vs LSG Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Mayank Agarwal: Mayank Agarwal, like Quinton de Kock, hasn't fired consistently in IPL 2022. However, Agarwal remains a quality batter against pace with his ability to score quick runs in the powerplay being handy. With conditions allowing the batters to go hard in the powerplay phase, Agarwal is one to watch out for in this game.
All-rounder
Jason Holder: Jason Holder has been a fine addition to the LSG side, impressing with both the new ball and in the death overs. Although his batting ability hasn't been called upon just yet, Holder's knack for picking up wickets in the backend of the innings should hold him in good stead ahead of today's game.
Bowler
Arshdeep Singh: Arshdeep Singh has been brilliant for Punjab Kings, conceding less than run-a-ball in the last four overs this season. Although Arshdeep has picked up just three wickets, he has been Punjab's best bowler and will be keen to add some wickets to his tally on Friday. Given his form and ability to stifle batters with his accuracy, he is a good addition to your PBKS vs LSG Dream11 fantasy team.
