Lucknow Super Giants will aim to bounce back when we take on Sunrisers Hyderabad on April 5 at 3:30 PM IST at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.

After a hard-fought opening game, the team is keen to put the defeat against the Delhi Capitals behind and shift focus to the SRH challenge. There were plenty of positives to build on as Mitchell Marsh and Abdul Samad looked in fine touch with the bat, while the pace attack delivered an impressive performance.

“One positive thing is that the boys fought hard. The way we bowled, especially the way we started… definitely some good signs going ahead in the season,” said Rishabh Pant in the post-match presentation, praising the intent shown on the field.

Meanwhile, the upcoming fixture presents a valuable chance for us to get our campaign up and running. With a determined mindset within the camp, the squad will be eyeing an all-round performance to register the maiden win of the season.

History also leans in Lucknow’s favour heading into this clash. The Super Giants hold a 4-2 head-to-head advantage over Sunrisers Hyderabad, offering a layer of confidence going into the encounter.

More notably, in our previous outing at this very venue last season, we chased down a daunting 193-run target in style. Mitchell Marsh’s explosive 52 off 31 and Nicholas Pooran’s blistering 26-ball 70 stole the spotlight, before Abdul Samad’s quickfire 22* off 8 sealed a comfortable five-wicket victory.

With those memories fresh and belief running high, the Super Giants will be eager to replicate that success once again. As the team takes the field in Uppal, we will look to feed off the energy of our backbone, our supporters! Here’s urging our fans to bring the same passion and noise, even away from home.
