LSG vs RCB: Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will host Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Ekana Stadium on Monday, May 1. The match will kick start at 7:30 PM IST. Lucknow are currently placed third on the ten-team points table with five wins in eight matches.

Bangalore, on the other hand, are placed sixth after losing and winning four matches each. The side lost their last match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) by 21 runs but have won two out of their last three matches. Lucknow won their last match against Punjab Kings (PBKS) by 56 runs.

As the two teams clash against each other for the second time in the tournament, let's have a look at the top four bowlers who can end up with the most wickets in the LSG vs RCB match.

Mark Wood: The Lucknow Super Giants pacer is the leading wicket-taker for his team currently. He has picked 11 wickets in four matches at an average of 11.81 and an economy of 8.12. He has missed the side's last three matches due to an illness but is expected to play against Bangalore.

His last match in the IPL 2023 came against Punjab Kings as he picked two wickets for 35 runs in four overs. Wood is expected to fly back home to attend the birth of his second child towards May end. The express pacer would be aiming to give his best for LSG before that.

Ravi Bishnoi: The Lucknow leg-spinner has picked ten wickets in eight matches at an average of 24.70 and an economy rate of 8.09. He is the second-highest wicket-taker for his team after Wood.

In the first match against RCB this season, he went wicket-less after leaking 39 runs in four overs at the M Chinnaswamy. However, he is expected to shine in the home match. Overall, he has played seven matches against RCB and picked six wickets at an average of 40.66 and an economy rate of 9.03.

Wanindu Hasaranga: The Sri Lanka leg-spinner was the most successful bowler for RCB in their last match against KKR. He gave away just 24 runs in two matches and picked the wickets of Venkatesh Iyer and Nitish Rana.

RCB would be hoping for him to deliver again. He has picked six wickets in five matches at an average of 25.50 and an economy rate of 9 this season. He has picked one wicket in two matches against RCB.

Mohammed Siraj: The pacer has been in stellar form this IPL season. He is currently the joint third-highest wicket-taker. The right-arm fast bowler has picked 14 wickets at an average of 16.64 and at an economy rate of 7.28.

In his last outing against LSG earlier this season, he picked three wickets for 22 runs in four overs. He has played three matches against Lucknow and picked five wickets at an average of 18.80 and an economy rate of 7.83.
