SRH won the toss and decided to bowl first at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow. SRH skipper Pat Cummins thinks it's better to chase as he is not quite sure of the wicket how it will play. On the other hand, LSG skipper Rishabh Pant doesn't mind batting first and they are looking one match at a time. LSG makes one change, William ORourke makes his debut.

Ekana Stadium pitch is providing reasonable bounce and carry to enable stroke play early on. Spin does come into the equation towards the fag end of the game, and hence middle-overs control comes into play. Toss will be the key here, chasing under lights generally being the winning strategy in this venue.
