Kolkata Knight Riders vs Lucknow Super Giants - IPL 2023, Match 68
KKR vs LSG Match Preview:
In the 68th game of IPL 2023, the Kolkata Knight Riders will play against the Lucknow Super Giants. KKR beat the Chennai Super Kings in their last game to keep their hopes of making the playoffs alive. They need a big win here to keep those dreams alive. LSG is coming into this match after beating Mumbai Indians, and they look like they are in good shape.
Last year, Lucknow Super Giants beat Kolkata Knight Riders twice, which gave them more confidence. The guests’ batting order is in good shape, and they will try to take advantage of it. In recent games, KKR has done well, but they haven’t done well at home. Both teams want to get into the playoffs, so we think this will be a close game.

CricAdvisor Predictions:
KKR vs LSG
CricAdvisor Predictions:Kolkata Knight Riders already have a win, but their starters haven’t been playing well. They’ll need runs at the top, and the bowlers will have to do what they’re supposed to do for them to win. The Lucknow Super Giants are in great shape with the bat, and they have never lost a game against KKR. It will give them a little bit of a leg up on the hosts.
Lucknow Super Giants will beat Kolkata.
