Can Lucknow get back to winning ways or Hyderabad will win again?, Pitch Report, Playing 11

The 58th Match of the Indian Premier League(IPL) 2023, will be played between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Lucknow Super Giants at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on 13th May. Sunrisers Hyderabad won the previous match and it was a thriller to watch as on bowling first conceded 214 runs all the bowlers went for runs but in the second innings the batter's showed intent from the start of the match as first Abhishek Sharma scored 55 runs along with Rahul Tripathi who scored 47 runs but then Glenn Phillips playing his first match of the season scored 25 runs in just 7 balls and Abdul Samad 17 runs cameo in the end clinched victory for Hyderabad. They still have a chance to qualify. On the other hand Lucknow Super Giants are losing continuous matches; the defeat against RCB has impacted and from that match they are yet to win a match. In the previous match, bowling first conceded a record total of 227 runs and bowlers were destroyed by the Gujarat Batsmen. While chasing the total Kyle Mayers along with Quinton de Kock playing his first match of this season IPL was brilliant with his 70 runs knock but the target was huge and middle order failed once again as Lucknow lost the match by 56 runs. KL Rahul injury and Deepak Hooda not in form has affected them and in the bowling department their whole bowling is dependent on Indian bowlers and most of them are not that experienced.
