Why Bangalore Look Weak Against Lucknow?: RCB vs LSG, IPL 2022

RCB vs LSG, DY Patil Stadium. Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants are performing incredibly well in the IPL 2022. RCB's top-order batting is failing despite having Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli in it. In contrast, LSG's batting unit performs well at almost every position. On paper, both the teams are strong enough, but in reality, one is stronger than another.

Yuzi Chahal took five-for with a hat-trick against KKR in the last game. RCB team management must be regretting their decision to retain Mohammad Siraj over Yuzi Chahal. Siraj is leaking runs all over the games, and he has one of the worst death bowling economy rates in the IPL 2022. No other RCB bowler has impressed with his death bowling. We can see Sid Kaul replacing Siraj in tonight's game. DK has proven himself a worthy finisher once again, but his chances to play for India in the T20 WC are very thin.

KL Rahul averages 83.50 against RCB!!! Highest by any batter against any team in the IPL. All the eyes will be on him tonight in hopes that he continues his incredible record. LSG has won the two games at the DY Patil stadium, and RCB has lost three of five matches. The inclusion of Stoinis has given LSG a fifth bowling option and a reliable hitter who can bat in the middle. Holder will be a key bowler in the powerplay and against Virat Kohli.
