Lucknow Super Giants are favorites to win
Match 66 of the 2022 Indian Premier League sees Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants meet on Wednesday evening at the DY Patil Stadium, Mumbai. KKR are in sixth place with 12 points on the board. Lucknow Super Giants are in third place after recording eight wins in the tournament so far. Read on as we preview this game. The match begins at 19:30 local time.
KKR have easily beaten Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad in their last two games and will have built up some winning momentum. However, Lucknow Super Giants will be a much tougher proposition in this fixture
Lucknow Super Giants come into this game after losing back to back matches against Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals. They will fancy their chances of getting back to winning ways in this match.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Star Sports in India, Sky Cricket in the UK and Fox Sport in Australia. Flow Sports will broadcast in the Caribbean with SuperSport possessing the rights in South Africa
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on Disney+ Hotstar and SkyGo.
The last four games at the DY Patil Stadium have seen the toss winning captain choose to field first. We predict that both skippers will want to insert the opposition to bat if they win the toss ahead of this match.
Pace bowlers have been enjoying the surface in Navi Mumbai over recent games although Liam Livingstone recorded figures of 3-27 on Monday. We expect a par score to be 155-165.
Clear skies and rising humidity levels over the duration of the game. The temperature will be around 30 degrees throughout.

Shreyas Iyer’s side made two changes to their XI ahead of their victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad at the MCA International Stadium, Pune on Sunday. Pat Cummins, who has returned to Australia, and Sheldon Jackson were both replaced by Umesh Yadav and England’s Sam Billings.
KKR have won their last two games and three of their last four matches. They are hoping for their third successive win of the tournament for the first time in the IPL 2022.
Venkatesh Iyer, Ajinkya Rahane, Nitish Rana, Shreyas Iyer (c), Sam Billings (wk), Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Umesh Yadav, Tim Southee, Varun Chakravarthy
There was one change for Lucknow Super Giants as they attempted to shrug off their defeat to Gujarat Titans against Rajasthan Royals at the Brabourne Stadium on Sunday. In came spinner Ravi Bishnoi with Karan Sharma missing out. Bishnoi impressed and we do not expect any changes ahead of this match.
Lucknow Super Giants have lost five games all season but two of those defeats have come in their last two games. They need to return to winning ways or their place in the play-offs will be under threat.
KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Deepak Hooda, Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, Marcus Stoinis, Jason Holder, Mohsin Khan, Avesh Khan, Dushmantha Chameera, Ravi Bishnoi
The teams have only met once before and that was in Match 53, 11 days ago. Lucknow Super Giants bowled KKR out for 101 to win by 75 runs

Lucknow Super Giants are clear favourites to win this game and do the double over KKR in the 2022 IPL group stage.
Although KKR have won their last two and Lucknow Super Giants have lost their last two, KKR have played teams at the foot of the table and Lucknow have played teams at the top. We are backing Lucknow to get the win.
KL Rahul has posted single figure scores in each of his last three innings but we expect him to return to form in this match. Shreyas Iyer needs to post more big scores for his team if they want to move up the table.

For KKR, Umesh Yadav, Varun Chakravarthy and Andre Russell are our bowling tips. Russell has taken 17 wickets and is in eighth place on the wicket takers list so far in this campaign. Chakravarthy dismissed the well set and dangerous Rohit Sharma in the win over Mumbai Indians.
For Lucknow Super Giants, Avesh Khan, Jason Holder and Ravi Bishnoi are our bowling tips. Khan has 41 wickets from 27 games over the last two seasons. Bishnoi dismissed the destructive Devdutt Padikkal and Riyan Parag in the game against Rajasthan Royals.
We expect this to be a very competitive game at the DY Patil Stadium and expect KKR to approach the game with plenty of confidence after winning their last two matches. We predict that Lucknow Super Giants may be tentative to begin with but overall we expect them to come away with the win.
