Chennai vs Lucknow on April 23
Chennai Super Kings will face Lucknow Super Giants in the 39th match of the Indian Premier League 2024. The tournament has entered its second half, and both teams are in the race to qualify for the playoffs this year. They both have seven games left and will be looking to collect as many wins as possible in the upcoming matches. The hosts, Chennai Super Kings, sit in a comfortable position after seven games and are at fourth spot on the league table. They faced defeat at the hands of Lucknow Super Giants, and the bowling was surely one of the weak points in that game. The side may also need to sort out the batting a little bit, with only a couple of players playing with an aggressive intent. Lucknow Super Giants would be confident ahead of this game against the Chennai Super Kings after their win against the same opponent in the last encounter. The side was clinical in all aspects of the game and would also be looking to achieve the same in the upcoming matches.
Best economical pick – One of the most consistent bowlers for the Lucknow Super Giants this season has been Yash Thakur and would be looking to continue his good form in the upcoming game.
Top captains & vice captains –KL Rahulholds the key for the Lucknow Super Giants in the batting department. Coming in as an opener he can build a strong foundation and take them to a big total. Rahul has been scoring runs for his side consistently and has given some solid starts alongside de Kock. In seven matches, he has scored 286 runs. In their last game against the same opposition, he scored 82 runs to guide his team to a brilliant eight-wicket victory. Ruaturaj Gaikwad has had a mixed bag this season. He performed well in the game against KKR and MI. But in other games, the CSK skipper has not been at his best. Gaikwad's consistency is the key for CSK to proceed further in the league. He must improve as a skipper too. To follow him, CSK had an interesting option against LSG in the last game.
Smart pick – Ravindra Jadejais the best spinner for the Chennai-based franchise. He can take crucial wickets in the middle and put his team in the driving seat with his bowling. The left-arm spinner has not had the best of seasons with only four wickets in seven matches. However, with the Chennai pitch supporting spinners, Jadeja will be determined to use it to his advantage.
Cautious Pick – Matt Henry had a very poor outing on his debut for the Lucknow Super Giants and was leaking runs for the side in the last game.
My XI – KL Rahul (Captain), Ruturaj Gaikwad (Vice-Captain), Ravindra Jadeja, Yash Thakur, Quinton de Kock, Nicholas Pooran, Marcus Stoinis, Shivam Dubey, Mustafizur Rahman, MS Dhoni, Ajinkya Rahane

Rajasthan vs Mumbai on April 22
Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians will be facing each other in the 38th match of the IPL 2024. Both teams would be high on confidence following their thrilling wins in their most recent matches. RR scripted history against KKR by chasing the joint-highest score in the history of the league. Jos Buttler pulled off a terrific win for his side by scoring a hundred. Despite being out of the game for most parts, RR managed to pull off an insane win. On the other hand, MI won the match against PBKS by just 9 runs. A great bowling spell from Jasorit Bumrah with the assistance of Gerald Coetzee from the other end helped the 5-time champions to overcome the home side. Despite the valiant efforts from Asutosh Sharma and Shashank Singh, PBKS fell short. RR and MI have been involved in some great matches in the league. In 2023, both teams took part in the 1000th match of the league. It was good. Arguably the greatest IPL match featured these two teams in 2014 which decided the fate of their qualification for the playoffs. Fans would hope to witness something similar on the 22nd of April 2024. RR has a good record at the venue which might give them a slight edge. One can expect a good contest between bat and ball given the nature of the wicket.
Best economical pick – Riyan Parag has been one of the best batters in the ongoing season. The youngster has managed to deliver the goods for his side with the bat. In the last game, the right-handed batter scored 34 runs in 14 balls which helped RR in the run chase against KKR.
Top captains & vice captains –Jos Buttlerslammed a brilliant ton in the last game and will look to deliver a good start for the Royals. He has been striking the ball well and fitness could be a question for the next game. With RR getting ample time before their game against MI, Buttler seems to have recovered well. If he sees through Jasprit Bumrah in the initial part of the tussle, he could prove as a game-changer. Suryakumar Yadav was the highest run-scorer for MI in the last game against PBKS. On a tricky wicket to bat on, Yadav took risks as soon as he entered the middle. As the pitch got slower, he held up one end. Jaipur is likely to be a similar wicket.
Smart pick – Jasprit Bumrahmust strike early to put the MI in a commanding position. The bowling attack must deliver the goods as they are up against a formidable batting lineup. Having said that, Bumrah has led from the front as was evident in the game against Punjab Kings. Where every other bowler went for runs, he bowled at an economy rate of less than six.
Cautious Pick – Dhruv Jurel has been woefully out of form in the ongoing season. The emerging batter has not played a significant knock with the bat so far. After impressing everyone in the IPL 2023 and the Test series against England, Jurel has fallen off the radar.
My XI – Jos Buttler (Captain), Suryakumar Yadav (Vice-Captain), Jasprit Bumrah, Riyan Parag, Sanju Samson, Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shimron Hetmyer

Kolkata Knight RidersandRajasthan Royalswill be facing each other in the 31st match of the IPL 2024. The match is set to take place at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. It will be a clash of table toppers and arguably the two best sides in the league so far. Both teams have been impressive and found their own ways to succeed in the league so far. While RR has an insane prowess in bowling, KKR has a great batting order. RR has a brilliant new-ball duo in Trent Boult and Nandre Burger. But the latter is likely to be benched due to the team combination. As a backup to Burger, RR has Avesh Khan who has been bowling well in the ongoing season. They also have experienced bowlers like Yuzvendra Chahal, Keshav Maharaj, and Ravichandran Ashwin in their lineup. In addition to it, RR has Adam Zampa and several other great bowlers in their lineup, making them the most potent attack.KKR has found success on the back of their batting. Their overseas opening pair of Phil Salt and Sunil Narine has done wonders, being arguably the best opening pair of the season. Their finishers have been amazing and the younger batters have stepped up to the occasion. The likes of Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Ramandeep Singh have played a good knock. Shreyas Iyer and Venkatesh Iyer need to be better. The winner of the battle between KKR batters and RR bowlers would probably have the bigger say on the result.
Best economical pick – Riyan Parag has been the best batter of RR in the ongoing season. The youngster has won a lot of matches for them with his batting performances. The right-handed batter is the second-hight run scorer in the ongoing season.
Top captains & vice captains –Sanju Samson has been brilliant as a batter and as a wicketkeeper. The star player has been one of the best batters in the league and kept wickets well, claiming some stunning catches. Even as a skipper, he has been good so far. Andre Russell has been good as a player in the ongoing season. With the bat, he has played impactful knocks lower down the order. With the ball, he has claimed wickets to break partnerships. Either way, he has contributed to the team.
Smart pick – Philip Salt can take the game away from the opponents in a matter of a few overs. When on song, he is nearly unstoppable. The aggressive batter has been one of the key reasons behind the success of KKR. He has been good behind the wickets too.
Cautious Pick – Dhruv Jurel has not been at his best in the ongoing league. The youngster probably needs a bit of time in the middle. Since he has not been able to make an impact, it is better to avoid him in the team for the game against KKR.
My XI – Sanju Samson (Captain), Andre Russell (Vice-Captain), Riyan Parag, Philip Salt, Shreyas Iyer, Trent Boult, Jos Buttler, Sunil Narine, Yashsavi Jaiswal, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shimron Hetmyer

SRH won their previous game against a team like PBKS by just two runs. It would have given them a lot of confidence which would be handy against RCB.
Best economical pick – Abhishek Sharma has come of age in the ongoing season. The young batter has been aggressive and scores runs at a brisk rate. He can bowl an over or two and be handy as a bowler. As a fielder, he can claim some stunning catches.
Top captains & vice captains –Travis Head is a match winner on his day. The Southpaw can change the momentum of the game in a matter of a few overs. If required, he can bowl an over or two. The Australian batter has a wide range of shots and can step up against great bowlers. Virat Kohli is the leading run-scorer in the ongoing season,. His worst knock in the season came in the previous game against MI where he scored 3(9). He is expected to score runs against SRH given his track record at home against the team.
Smart pick – Heinrich Klaasen has been one of the best T20 batters in recent times. In the last two games, the star batter has not fired as well as he would have liked. But his caliber and striking abilities make him a sure-shot player in the fantasy team.
Cautious Pick – Glenn Maxwell got injured during the game against MI. The experienced player is likely to miss out on the game against SRH. It might be a blessing in disguise for RCB given his poor run in the ongoing season so far.
My XI – Travis Head (Captain), Virat Kohli (Vice-Captain), Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klasssen, Pat Cummins, Faf du Plessis, Aiden Markram, Dinesh Karthik, Bhuvneswar Kumar, Will Jacks, Rajat Patidar

Punjab vs Rajasthan on April 13
Punjab Kings will host Rajasthan Royals in Match 27 of the Indian Premier League 2024. Both teams are coming off defeats. They will aim to bounce back when they face each other at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur in Chandigarh on Saturday, April 13. The visitors lost their first match of the season, as Gujarat Titans beat them by three wickets in a last-ball thriller. However, they still rule the points table with eight points. On the other hand, PBKS are currently in the eighth position after losing three out of five matches. They were inches closer to victory in the last game, but unfortunately, they ended up losing.Despite losing the last game, RR still looks like one of the most formidable teams in the tournament. However, they have lost the winning momentum, and Punjab will look to capitalize on it.
Best economical pick – We are witnessing the 2.0 version of Riyan Parag this season. The right-handed batter has amassed 261 runs in five matches, including three half-centuries, and is currently the second-highest run-getter.
Top captains & vice captains –PBKS skipperShikhar Dhawancould be the best batter in game 27 of the ongoing IPL 2024. With 174 runs in his last five matches, Dhawan has been instrumental in giving his side a good start. Putting the past results behind him, he will be keen on continuing to give a solid start and build his innings against Rajasthan Royals as well. Sanju Samson is currently the fourth-highest run-scorer in the tournament with 246 runs, including three fifties. The RR skipper scored 68 runs in their last match against GT and looks to be in top form.
Smart pick – Ace RR pacerTrent Boultcould be the best bowler in game 27 of the IPL 2024. With five wickets in five matches, Boult has been brilliant for the Royals, and Punjab will be wary of the Kiwi pacer’s opening spell in the game. Though the left arm quick hasn't fired in the last two games, he was very economical. He will be willing to give his team a breakthrough early in the innings.
Cautious Pick – Harshal Patel has not been consistent in taking wickets and has leaked a lot of runs. The pitch for the upcoming match is in favour of batting and the right-arm pacer is likely to have another poor outing.
My XI – Shikhar Dhawan (Captain), Sanju Samson (Vice-Captain), Riyan Parag, Trent Boult, Jos Buttler, Kagiso Rabada, Sam Curran, Shimron Hetmyer, Shasank Singh, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Yuzvendra Chahal
