TEAM NEWS

Lucknow Super Giants: Both the LSG openers – KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock - have scored over 500 runs for the side this season, playing a crucial role in providing the newbies a solid platform. Deepak Hooda has also been a superb but rest of the LSG batters have failed to complement the three. Marcus Stoinis got very limited batting opportunities this season which made his contribution with the bat negligible. In the bowling department, Lucknow have the experienced duo of Jason Holder and Dushmanta Chameera but they have been inconsistent. On the other hand, Avesh Khan and Mohsin Khan have performed well this season with the latter having a superb economy rate of 5.93 alongside 13 wickets.

Royal Challengers Bangalore: Virat Kohli is back in form with a sensational 73 off 54 against Gujarat Titans in RCB’s preceding game. Meanwhile, Faf du Plessis, their leading run-scorer this season, has also looked good of late. Glenn Maxwell has played crucial cameos at the middle but he needs to take his innings deep. On the other hand, Dinesh Karthik has been superb with a strike rate of over 190. On the bowling front, the trio of Josh Hazlewood, Wanindu Hasaranga and Harshal Patel have been on the money.
