LSG vs KKR, the 66th game of Tata IPL 2022, is scheduled to be played at DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai from 7:30 PM IST on 18th May 2022.
Team Updates:
Lucknow Super Giants need to win this game to ensure that they qualify without any hitch into the playoffs. A win against KKR will also make their bid for the 1st qualifier much better. In contrast, KKR is in dire need of a win to hang on to a chance of making it to the playoffs.
LSG has lost two consecutive matches, which has made them slip from the 1st to the 3rd position in the points table. On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders are currently placed at 6th position in the points table. KKR needs to win by a significant margin to ensure their run rate gets better than the other teams gunning for the 4th position in the points table.
LSG vs KKR is a virtual quarterfinal that will have a massive impact on the remaining games in the group stage.
