Lucknow Super Giants square off against Kolkata Knight Riders at the DY Patil Stadium on Wednesday as both teams look to confirm their places in the playoffs of IPL 2022.
However, there appears to be a big blow for LSG, as Krunal Pandya misses out on the game due to a niggle.
KL Rahul won the toss and chose to bat first, and he revealed that he’s made three changes to his playing XI.
