LSG vs RCB Match Preview

Lucknow Super Giants will face the in-form RCB at home. LSG is struggling to find batting consistency. As a result, the hosts will face an uphill battle to stop the RCB juggernaut. Virat Kohli is in sublime form, having scored four consecutive fifties for his team. The depth of the batting lineup is a significant advantage for RCB. Bhuvneshwar and Lungi Ngidi will test the hosts' struggling batting order. LSG is concerned about Rishabh Pant's poor form this season. The southpaw batter is well-known for his ability to change the game. He hasn't had much of an impact this year.
