LSG vs GT Live Update: The Pandya brothers will face off against each other for the second time in the Indian Premier League 2022 tonight (Tuesday, May 5) at the MCA Stadium in Pune, India. Krunal shared a snapshot of Hardik’s kid Agastya, who is donning the Lucknow Super Giants shirt, on his social media accounts before of the match against his younger brother Hardik.
Agastya seems to have received a personalized Lucknow Super Giants jersey from Krunal Pandya, as the shirt has his name printed on the back of the jersey. Krunal noted in the caption of his Instagram image that he was carrying his lucky charm with him, which was true.
As Krunal put it, “I’ve got my fortunate charm working for me for tomorrow’s game.”

LSG vs GT Live Update: Krunal Pandya and Hardik Pandya will face off again
While Krunal Pandya removed Hardik Pandya in the opening match between the Gujarat Titans and the Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2022, the latter’s side won the match by five wickets as a result of the dismissal. To witness whether side emerges victorious in Pune tonight will be a thrilling experience. One of the two new clubs will almost certainly secure a position in the IPL 2022 Playoffs later tonight.
The Gujarat Titans and the Lucknow Super Giants are currently in first and second place in the IPL 2022 rankings, respectively, with 16 points each. The GT team held the top spot in the rankings for a long period of time until LSG overhauled them with four consecutive victories. However, the Titans are on a two-game losing run at this point.
Based on the previous results of the two organizations, the Lucknow Super Giants will be considered the favourites to win tonight’s game. The victor of this matchup will almost certainly qualify for the playoffs.
Generally speaking, 16 points is sufficient to qualify for the IPL playoffs, but 18 points will almost certainly secure them a top-four finish in the tournament. Watching to see which new club makes it to the Indian Premier League playoffs will be intriguing. The match will begin at 7:30 p.m. Indian Standard Time.
LSG’s situation right now
In addition to being well-served at the top of the order by Rahul Dravid and Quinton de Kock, LSG has also found a solution to their No.3 dilemma in the shape of Deepak Hooda, who has scored 41, 52, and 34 in their previous three games for the team. Meanwhile, they have been tinkering with Marcus Stoinis’ batting position, and LSG will be hoping that his 14-ball 28 in the previous game is a harbinger of things to come, since the Australian has yet to make a significant contribution to the team.
On the bowling front, LSG boast a well-rounded pace attack that has been operating at peak performance. Avesh Khan, Mohsin Khan, Dushmantha Chameera, and Jason Holder have taken a combined total of 44 wickets for Leicestershire, demonstrating the communal nature of the team’s fast bowling arsenal.
