Team Previews
Noida Super Kings:
The Noida Super Kings are off to a strong start in this year’s Uttar Pradesh T20 League, currently placed 3rd on the table with one win. Their victory against Lucknow Falcons highlighted their depth and composure under pressure. Prashant Veer emerged as the batting hero with an unbeaten 48, while Karn Sharma’s quickfire 33 changed the game’s momentum. The side also has Shivam and Avinesh Choudhary, who gave them a good start in the chase. On the bowling front, Naman Tiwari has been a standout performer with 4 wickets, providing crucial breakthroughs. The biggest strength of Noida lies in their middle-order resilience and ability to chase totals under pressure. However, their top order still needs consistency, as early wickets could put extra pressure on the middle order.
Gorakhpur Lions:
The Gorakhpur Lions, on the other hand, struggled in their opening game against Kashi Rudras. Their bowling attack, led by Abdul Rehman with 3 wickets, did well in patches but failed to contain the run flow in the death overs. Shivam Mavi’s explosive 54 off 21 balls was the highlight of their batting, but apart from Prince Yadav’s 49, there was little resistance. The Lions need their senior players like Akshdeep Nath and Dhruv Jurel to step up if they want to bounce back. Their top-order collapse remains a major concern, as losing four early wickets in the last match showed vulnerability against quality pace and spin. If their batting finds stability, they can trouble stronger opponents, but they need discipline in both departments to overcome the in-form Super Kings.

Favourite Team in Today’s Match
The Noida Super Kings enter this contest as the favorites. Their recent win against Lucknow Falcons showcased their ability to perform under pressure and execute in crunch moments. The balance between their batting and bowling unit gives them an edge, particularly with in-form players like Prashant Veer and Karn Sharma leading the charge. Their bowlers, especially Naman Tiwari, provide the breakthroughs needed to contain strong batting sides. In contrast, Gorakhpur Lions have struggled with both top-order stability and death bowling, which puts them at a disadvantage. Unless their senior players step up massively, the Lions might find it hard to overcome the all-round strength of Noida.
Pitch Report
The Ekana Stadium pitch is traditionally batting-friendly with true bounce, but spinners could come into play during the middle overs. Teams batting first should aim for 160+, as chasing under lights becomes slightly easier.
Weather Report
The weather in Lucknow is expected to be clear and sunny with temperatures around 32°C. No chances of rain interruptions.
