RCBVSLSG Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) team will field against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Tuesday in their last league match of the Indian Premier League (IPL), then their efforts will be to confirm their place in the top two in the table with victory.
The team of Super Giants, however, will put a heel push for the end of their disappointing campaign in the current season.
The continuous defeat of the Gujarat Titans has made a great chance for RCB, holding third place in the third place, to make it to the top two for the first time since 2016.
The teams, who are at the top two positions in the IPL table, get an additional opportunity to reach the final against the third and fourth place teams.
RCB has 17 points in his name and the scope of mistake for it is very low. He needs to win this match to reach the top. One of the Mumbai Indians (16 points) and Punjab Kings (17 points) is set to overtake the Titans (18 points) after the match this evening.
RCB was in excellent form before the league’s 10-day stop due to the India-Pakistan military conflict. He had won four consecutive matches but this break affected the team’s rhythm.
After the league resumed, his match against Kolkata Knight Riders was washed away by rain and then defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by 42 runs.
The return of Australian fast bowler Josh Hazlewood has boosted enthusiasm in the RCB camp. Hazelwood has been the best performing bowler for the team in this season. He has taken 18 wickets in 10 matches and is currently at number four among the highest wicket -taking bowlers in the tournament.
RCB will also be familiar with the circumstances as it played his last match at Ekana Stadium itself. However, it will not be easy to defeat Lucknow Super Giants at his home ground. After defeating Titans in their last match, the hosts are full of confidence.
A trio of Eden Marrakash, Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Puran performed brilliantly for super giants in this season. With his aggressive batting, the team scored a big score of 235 runs for two wickets against the Titans.
The team’s bowling unit also impressed in this match. It has been a positive step to include Will Verorke, who replaces the injured Mayank Yadav. Spinner Digvesh Rathi, who is looking for LSG in this session, will also return from this match after completing the suspension of a match. The team will be expecting a good performance from his captain Rishabh Pant in the last match of the session who struggled to score runs throughout the session. (Language)
