Royal Challengers Bangalore had a good last three seasons to remember as they progressed to playoffs on all occasions, but never won the title. RCB have suffered many injuries and replacement in this edition. Michael Bracewell has been called to RCB as a replacement for Will Jacks. Addition of Bracewell will see three spin-bowling overseas all-rounders in the team along with Maxwell and Hasaranga. They would look to continue the good run with little more caution in this edition.
Lucknow Super Giants, on the other hand, had a good debut season to remember, as they won nine out of fourteen games and were placed third in the table despite sharing an equal number of wins with Rajasthan Royals, courtesy of having lesser ne run rate. They failed to go past eliminator as they lost against RCB by a close margin of 14 runs. KL Rahul enjoyed the season by ending as the second highest run-getter in the tournament. He along with Quinton de Kock registered a record 210-run partnership for the first wicket against KKR. KL Rahul-led Lucknow would look to continue their winning run in the 2023 edition.
KL Rahul’s side is heading into the home fixture on the back of a record-setting victory against Punjab Kings. Stoinis, Ayush Badoni, Mayers performed well in that match while the visitors were coming into the game after a disappointing loss against KKR. Kohli, Duplesis, Maxwell will be their key players.

The average first innings score of 152 is the lowest across venues this season. Thunderstorms are expected an hour ahead of the game, but the anticipation is for it to not have an impact on the game.

Who Will Win Today’s Match Between Lucknow and Bangalore:
Last time they met was in the 15th match of the ongoing season where LSG won by 1 wicket. Batting first, the trio of Virat Kohli (61), Faf du Plessis (79*) and Glenn Maxwell (59) registered their respective half-centuries to help Bangalore post huge total of 212/2 in 20 overs. In response, a blistering 65-run knock from Marcus Stoinis and ruthless hitting from Nicholas Pooran (62) helped LSG edge over RCB by a 1 wicket margin. Nicholas Pooran smashed the fastest fifty of the IPL 2023 and this was also the joint-second fastest fifty in the history of IPL. Talking about head-to-head rcb won 02 while LSG won 01. We think the LSG team will feel more confident between these two teams. Because the current form of RCB is not good as compared to LSG in batting and bowling. So, LUCKNOW should have won against BANGALORE.
