However, like in the first match, Jadeja did not play well today. He collected only 3 runs off 6 balls. LSG's batsmen are in good form though. Even then, it is much more difficult to score 218 runs to win this match. But if the top order is able to play well then LSG have a chance to win.
In the first over, LSG managed to collect 7 runs without losing any wickets.
LSG needs 11 runs in each over to win. Lucknow's openers Kyle Mayers and KL Rahul are playing very well. While KL Rahul is batting very carefully, Kyle Mayers is batting devastatingly. He is unbeaten with 48 runs from 20 balls. At the end of 5 overs, Lucknow managed to collect 73 runs. They are collecting more than 14 runs in every over. If Chennai's bowlers are not able to break this pair very quickly then I don't see any chance of them winning this match. However, apart from these two batsmen, LSG has experienced batsmen like Nicholas Pooran and Deepak Hooda in their squad.
Csk put on a huge total of 217. LSG is chasing the total right now. But I honestly do not think they will actually be able to win. Less than 5 overs remaining right now. They need more than 16 runs per over. They need 67 from 28 balls. They only have five wickets in hand. This task is becoming near impossible for them in my opinion.
Chennai Super Kings should be able to win this match. Because if even one weekend falls right now, it is going to be too much to ask from the lower order of LSG.
