5 LSG vs RCB Key battles

Lucknow Super Giants are playing Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL 2022 Eliminator and here we are looking at few personal battles that can determine the course of the match.

1 Josh Hazlewood vs KL Rahul / Quinton de Kock: The LSG have a crack opening pair in skipper Rahul and De Kock. In Hazlewood, the RCB have a perfect answer to the duo. The Australian fast bowler bowls the hard length and can obtain early wickets, as RCB need early inroads into Lucknow line-up.

2 LSG middle-order vs Wanindu Hasaranga: Hasaranga has been hugely effective for RCB, evidenced by his 24 wickets from 14 matches. He has often tangled the opposition batting line-up with tight spells and also bagged wickets to add to the pressure. The LSG middle-order has accomplished players of spin like Deepak Hooda, and power-hitters such as Jason Holder and Marcus Stoinis. The battle between the Sri Lankan spinner and them will be massively impactful.

3 Mohsin Khan vs RCB line-up: The LSG left-arm pacer has been quite impressive in the IPL 2022 so far, taking wickets as well as holding up runs. In power plays, in the middle overs and at death, Mohsin has been effective in all spaces of a T20 match. RCB will have to nullify him.

4 Ravi Bishnoi vs Glenn Maxwell / Dinesh Karthik: Both Maxwell and Karthik love the ball coming on to the bat. LSG leg-spinner Bishnoi should keep the tempo calm and force the RCB duo into mistakes. Otherwise, they can run away with the match.
