Nicholas Pooran vs Jofra Archer

Nicholas Pooran is still sitting at the top with the Orange cap on his head as the leading run scorer, even after a rare failure in the last match. Jofra Archer has had a mixed season so far, where he has bowled well in patches.

Archer seems to be quite a potent option against the man-in-form, Nicholas Pooran. He has bowled a total of 36 balls to him in the shortest format, where he has given just 39 runs and has got him out thrice. He has been able to restrict him, not letting him score freely.

Rishabh Pant vs Sandeep Sharma

Rishabh Pant was finally seen in some form in the last game, where he scored a half-century and was the leading run scorer for Lucknow. He would be hoping to continue with the same. However, Sandeep would be coming in his way for that, although he is coming after a bad last game.

Sandeep has bowled over 29 deliveries to Pant, where he has given away just 28 runs at a strike rate of 96.6 with the help of three boundaries only. Although he has taken his wicket just once in this procedure, he has been able to restrict him pretty well.
