Royal Challengers Bangalore will take on Lucknow Super Giants in their second home game at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru starting in just half an hour in the IPL 2023. LSG captain KL Rahul won the toss and decided to field first.
The pitch at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru promises to be an exciting encounter with explosive batters on a decent batting pitch.
RCB would be looking to make a comeback after 81 runs loss to Kolkata Knight Riders while LSG looks to create an impact to win their 3rd match of the tournament.
Here we look at the 3 Players who will score the most runs between RCB and LSG
- Virat Kohli
King Kohli would be hoping for a brilliant performance against Lucknow Super Giants. He made a superb start to the tournament with an unbeaten 82 against Mumbai Indians helping RCB chase down the target of 172 runs easily.
He looked in the 2nd game against Kolkata Knight Riders but failed to convert it into a big score. He would be hoping to showcase his mettle with another superb performance at Bengaluru against Lucknow Super Giants and help RCB register their 2nd win of this year’s edition.
- Kyle Mayers
Kyle Mayers looked in supreme form so far this season for Lucknow Super Giants. He showed his class with a quickfire 73 against Delhi Capitals and then produced another superb half-century against Chennai Super Kings but failed to convert it into a big score.
He made a quiet start against Sunrisers Hyderabad and could make a huge impact against Royal Challengers Bangalore on a decent batting pitch. With LSG chasing down the target, Kyle Mayers will be an important member of the team to provide a quickfire start and put pressure on RCB bowlers.
- Faf du Plessis
Faf du Plessis started the IPL with a match-winning knock of 73 and brilliant opening wicket partnership of 148 runs for the opening wicket against Mumbai Indians. He looked in decent form during the second match against Delhi Capitals but fell cheaply.
RCB captain has scored 96 runs in the first two matches of the tournament so far. He will be important to give a flying start against LSG along with Virat Kohli and lay a strong foundation for RCB to post a decent total.
His contributions will be helpful for RCB to build pressure on LSG bowlers and can make use of the first six overs.
