Lucknow vs Gujarat IPL 2022 scorecard
Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans faced each other earlier in IPL 2022, which was the first game of IPL 2022 for both teams. Lucknow Super Giants had the worst possible start in that game when KL Rahul went out on a golden duck. Quinton de Kock, Manish Pandey and Evin Lewis also flopped.
Ayush Badoni and Deepak Hooda both scored half-centuries in the lower order, and Lucknow managed to score 158 runs. Mohammed Shami scalped three wickets in the match, whereas Varun Aaron got a couple of them.

Tewatia scored 40 runs in just 24 balls to seal the game for the Gujarat Titans by 5 wickets.
