Punjab are only one game in but the brand of cricket they played in the first game was impressive. Lucknow too are a side with a lot of explosive players. In a clash of too explosive sides there is also a case for the bowlers making a mark with decent bowling units, lacking big names but finding a way to fight. Arshdeep Singh is a proven performer and Shardul Thakur has come out of nowhere to look impressive.
