RCB vs LSG, M.Chinnaswamy Stadium Pitch Report
We expect to see a surface which favours the batters in this game. Any score under 175 in the first innings will be considered under par.
Out of a total of 82 IPL matches that took place at this venue, 45 matches have been won by batting second. When it comes to bowling, pacers can be more beneficial to use on this pitch.

The forecast is for clear skies across this match on Monday evening in Bengaluru. The temperature will drop from 30 degrees to 27 degrees with humidity not high enough to make much of a difference.

RCB Team News & Playing 11
RCB Team News
With Reece Topley ruled out of the rest of the IPL 2023 tournament after dislocating his shoulder during Royal Challengers Bangalore’s opening fixture, David Willey came into the team to replace his fellow countryman. No changes are expected ahead of this match.
RCB Key Players
- Virat Kohli- the 34 year old opener has been in fine form across all formats of the sport over the last 6-7 months and has continued his form in this tournament.
- Faf du Plessis- the former South African international hit four boundaries in his 12 ball stay at the crease on Thursday and is a fine T20 batter.
- David Willey- the England bowling all-rounder returned his best IPL figures in the defeat to Kolkata Knight Riders and dismissed Venkatesh Iyer and Mandeep Singh.
- Mohammed Siraj - Pacers can help to get some wickets on this track. We are expecting Siraj to pick a few in this match. He has picked 61 wickets in 67 IPL matches.
RCB Possible Impact Player Substitutes
Finn Allen. Sonu Yadav, Mahipal Lomror, Anuj Rawat
Keeper-batter Anuj Rawat was used as an impact player to lengthen the batting order in the last game. Finn Allen is always a strong option for quick runs if required.
RCB Team Form
Royal Challengers Bangalore have had a big win (by eight wickets) and a large defeat (by 81 runs) from their two games in the 2023 IPL.

LSG Team News & Playing 11
LSG Team News
There were two changes for Lucknow Super Giants ahead of their win against Sunrisers Hyderabad with Mark Wood missing with the flu and Avesh Khan out with a minor injury. We do not expect either player to come back into the team for this game.
LSG Key Players
- KL Rahul- the skipper is one of the most consistent batters in the IPL and needs to hit 48 runs in this game to bring up 4000 runs in the tournament.
- Krunal Pandya- the left-arm spinner took the Player of the Match Award on Friday after hitting 34 runs from 23 balls and taking 3-18.
- Ravi Bishnoi- the 22 year old spinner got the wicket of Harry Brook in the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad and has picked up six wickets so far in this campaign.
- Kyle Mayers - Kyle Mayers is currently the leading run scorer for LSG, with 139 runs in 3 matches at a strike rate of 187.83. He can have a good time at this batting track.
LSG Possible Impact Player Substitutes
Ayush Badoni, Swapnil Singh, Daniel Sams, Prerak Mankad
Ayush Badoni hit a half-century in his first IPL campaign last year and will be an excellent option with the bat. Daniel Sams is a regular wicket taker in T20 cricket and could make an impact with the ball.

prediction too sahi lagta hai... jab team banata hu lagta hai sahi team banya.... but kuch nehi hota.... last 4 yr dream-11 and 11 my circle game khelra hu...
It is difficult to defeat RCB at their home ground. LSG is in good momentum but RCB will win this one.
