LSG vs PBKS toss prediction FAQ
Who won the LSG vs PBKS toss?

What did the toss winner choose in LSG vs PBKS?
Punjab Kings chose to field first. Our pre-toss call was field first — the captain did what we predicted.
How does the toss affect the LSG vs PBKS match odds?
Meaningfully. Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium favours chasing (teams batting second win 55% here), so our model shifts the match win probability by about 4 percentage points depending on which side ends up chasing — with evening dew adding to the chase advantage under lights. A pre-toss match price averages both branches, so the toss result itself can create or kill value on the match market.
