KKR vs LSG, MI vs CSK: IPL 2024 team news

The Eden Gardens crowd may be divided today. On the local New Year’s Day, a large crowd may turn up to cheer for the Kolkata Knight Riders. Lucknow Super Giants, on the other hand, will don the maroon-and-green shirt of Mohun Bagan – they share the same owner – one half of the city’s fierce football derby.

KKR had missed the Ranas, Nitish and Harshit, to injuries, but both have returned to the nets. Mayank Yadav and Mohsin Khan will miss the match for LSG, which may – or not – result in Shamar Joseph’s long-awaited IPL debut.

Mumbai Indians have returned to winning ways. Their batting has looked dangerous, especially at home, and the Chennai Super Kings have a difficult job on their hands. There is no update on Deepak Chahar’s recovery, but Matheesha Pathirana may be back for CSK.
