Gujarat Vs Lucknow, Can Lucknow win the match without KL Rahul?, Match Prediction

The 51st Match of the Indian Premier League(IPL) 2023, will be played between Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on 7th May. Gujarat Titans won their previous match comfortably as they defeated Rajasthan Royals as on bowling first Mohammad Shami good with the new ball and later their afghani spinners were outstanding as Rashid Khan conceded just 14 runs and picked up 3 wickets and Noor Ahmed too picked up 2 wickets as in front of them the target was just of 119 runs and they chased down very easily as first Shubham Gill started beautiful and then Wriddhiman Saha stood at one end along with Hardik Pandya who scored 39 runs in just 15 balls. Gujarat Titans are in the first position and are going strong like the previous season. On the other hand Lucknow Super Giants last match was ended as no result but before that they almost played 20 overs in which their score was 44-5 in 10 overs but then Ayush Badoni brilliant fifty took Lucknow to a decent score of 125 runs. For them the biggest problem will be how the team will play in the absence of their star Batsmen KL Rahul. Deepak Hooda's inconsistent performance this season is also a factor as they are trying new players for the No. 3 role.
