LSG top order

Before the tournament began, people expected LSG to have one of the strongest groups of opening batters. So far, that hasn't happened. Ayush Badoni is struggling to score runs quickly, so Josh Inglis might get a chance to play in today's game against KKR. On the bright side, Mitchell Marsh is currently LSG's best batter. He has scored 210 runs so far with a solid strike rate of 134.61.

LSG middle order

Nicholas Pooran and Aiden Markram are known as two of the best T20 players in the world, but they haven't played very well in this IPL. Even though Markram has the second most runs for LSG, his average is low at only 23.14. Pooran has struggled even more, scoring only 73 runs in seven games with a very low average (10.42) and a slow scoring rate.
