The Orange Army were superb in their opening game against Rajasthan Royals (RR), setting up a total of 286 and registering a 44-run win.
Their top and middle-order batters have been firing on all cylinders from day one, and head coach Daniel Vettori will hope for more of the same from Pat Cummins and Co. in their second game.
Meanwhile, LSG and their new skipper Rishabh Pant – who scored a six-ball duck – had a day to forget against Delhi Capitals (DC), losing by one wicket despite posting a challenging target of 210.
The Lucknow bowlers faltered badly in defending the total, with Digvesh Rathi their most economical bowler at 7.50. The others all had economy rates over 9.50, with three boasting double-digit figures.
