IPL 2023 weather update: Mohali weather report on April 28 for today's PBKS vs LSG clash
Fans can expect an uninterrupted contest when the Punjab Kings (PBKS) square off against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium in Mohali on Friday, April 28.
Punjab have had a mixed IPL 2023 campaign so far, winning four out of their seven games. They are placed sixth in the points table and will look to move up in the standings.
Despite a victory in their last game against Mumbai Indians (MI), PBKS have missed the service of the injured Shikhar Dhawan at the top of the order. The likes of Prabhsimran Singh and Atharva Taide have made handy contributions, but they are far from being consistent. Overseas stars also need to fire all cylinders to keep PBKS in the race for a top-four finish.
LSG have also had a similar fate but are placed fourth in the standings, thanks to having a better net run rate. The Super Giants lost their last game against the Gujarat Titans (GT) by seven runs in a low-scoring thriller and will look to return to winning ways at the earliest.
