In the head-to-head records of the SRH vs LSG clashes, the Sunrisers Hyderabad are yet to beat the Lucknow Super Giants in a small sample of six of three games in the Indian Premier League (IPL) history. Lucknow easily blew away Hyderabad with seven wickets in hand in Hyderabad in 2023.

Hyderabad have gone for runs in the powerplay at an economy of 9.64, which has been quite average in this tournament, while on the other hand, Lucknow’s economy of 9.02, is the fourth-best of the competition so far in this period.

SRH vs LSG Best Players Prediction
Best Batter Prediction: Travis Head
The dynamic Australia batter Travis Head has notched up 444 runs so far in this IPL 2024 at a strike rate of 189.74. His record in Hyderabad has been excellent with 182 runs in five innings at a strike rate of 155.6 with a couple of fifties. He looked a bit out of touch in the last few games, but this is he could go berserk.
Best Bowler Prediction: Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar has looked in supreme touch in this IPL 2024, especially in the powerplay with the new ball. The veteran has nine wickets in 11 innings, but his record in Hyderabad where has collected 46 wickets at an economy of 8.03 could work in his favor.
SRH vs LSG Match Winner Prediction
Both teams are coming from huge defeats. The current environment of both camps is down. But just because SRH are playing at home, they have that slight advantage in this clash.
