The surface in Mohali has traditionally been a high-scoring venue with batters enjoying their time in the middle.
Punjab Kings will take on the Lucknow Super Giants in the 38th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League at the IS Bindra Stadium in Mohali. PBKS got an ideal start to their Indian Premier League 2023 campaign, recording two successive clinical wins. After defeating Kolkata Knight Riders by a narrow seven-run margin (DLS), the Kings played well against Rajasthan Royals but incurred a five-run defeat in a high-scoring affair in Guwahati. They have won four and lost three games so far. They have eight points in their bucket and are currently placed in the sixth position in the points table. Sam Curran has been leading the team in the absence of Shikar Dhawan, who is recovering from an injury.
After playing seven games, Lucknow Super Giants has eight points to show on the points table. They have won four and lost three games, LSG are coming into this game on the back of a loss against the Gujarat Titans in their latest affair and must be looking to turn the tables. KL Rahul has failed to bat at a healthy strike rate and have put more pressure on the batting lineup. When it comes to bowling, LSG have been good in bits and pieces. Krunal Pandya and Ravi Bishnoi have been brilliant this season and in the pace department, Afghan pacer Naveen-ul-Haq has been very impressive. Both sides are well-balanced and this game has all the makings of going down to the wire.

The surface in Mohali has traditionally been a high-scoring venue with batters enjoying their time in the middle. The ball might do a little bit for the fast bowlers in the initial stages of the match, but it will get easier to bat as the match progresses. The team winning the toss would be inclined to bowl first at this venue.
