Uttar Pradesh vs Karnataka Prediction & Betting Tips 2024

The two matches played at the venue have seen three hundreds each. The conditions have favoured the batsmen so far and we’re backing both teams to put up good totals.

Aryan Juyal has already scored a hundred in Lucknow this campaign - in their draw against Haryana. In three innings at the venue, he has scores of 92, 5, and 119 runs and we’re expecting him to go big once again.

While the Karnataka batters are yet to get going in the tournament, we believe Mayank Agarwal could put up a big score. The former India international has already posted a 100+ score this season and with a flatter surface expected for the match, we are expecting the 33-year-old to give his team a good start at the top of the order.

Uttar Pradesh vs Karnataka Match Toss Prediction

The hosts have lost the toss on both occasions at home so far with the visitors opting to bat first in Lucknow. With the pitch at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium favouring batsmen, we are expecting the captain that wins the toss to bat first once again.

Weather Report

The weather in Lucknow during match hours is expected to range between 24 and 31 degrees celsius. It is expected to be sunny on all days with a light breeze flowing through. Viewers can expect a complete game as there’s no chance of rain on any of the days.

Uttar Pradesh vs Karnataka Top Batters

Aryan Juyal to be Uttar Pradesh’s top batsman

Uttar Pradesh’s captain Aryan Juyal is in good touch, leading the runs scoring charts for his team with 267 runs in 6 innings. The wicketkeeper-batsman was the team’s leading run-getter last season as well and we’re expecting him to finish in the same position once again irrespective of his team’s performances.

Mayank Agarwal to be Karnataka’s top batsman

The 33-year-old opening batsman is the team’s second-highest run scorer behind Nikin Jose. The former India international had a team-leading five 50+ scores last season and he has already registered a century this campaign. We’re expecting him to perform well in Lucknow.

Uttar Pradesh vs Karnataka Top Bowlers

Shivam Sharma to be Uttar Pradesh’s top bowler

Shivam Sharma may have taken just 11 wickets in three matches, but six of those have come in a single match in Lucknow. The slow left-armer is well-versed with the pitches in Lucknow and will be hoping to get the better of the opposition once again, like he did against Haryana.

Shreyas Gopal to be Karnataka’s top bowler

Leg spinner Shreyas Gopal has taken 12 wickets in 6 innings so far this season at an average of 30.50. While the former India international can be expensive, he has a knack of taking wickets, which would be crucial in the match against Uttar Pradesh. We’re expecting him to get some purchase from the pitch in Lucknow.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Karnataka

With clear skies expected in Lucknow, Karnataka will be raring to register their second away win of the campaign to amplify their chances of qualifying for the knock-out stages. Despite Uttar Pradesh playing at home, we are expecting the visitors to end up on the winning side. The hosts will do well to close out yet another draw, but we feel Karnataka will be too strong for them.
