THE LOWDOWN
LUCKNOW SUPER GIANTS
- An excellent net-run-rate has put Lucknow Super Giants in a very promising position to reach back-to-back play-offs having won five and lost three of their eight matches so far.
- After losing narrowly against Gujarat Titans, the Super Giants bounced back extremely well in their following game, thrashing Punjab Kings by 56 runs and racking up the second highest score in IPL history batting first in the process.
ROYAL CHALLENGERS BANGALORE
- Royal Challengers Bangalore failed to make it three wins in a row as their home blues came back to haunt them again vs Kolkata Knight Riders, who defeated them by 21 runs.
- The domestic lower order of RCB has struggled across the tournament so far, a big contrast to last year and if they can find form across the second half of the group stage, it may be enough to parachute them up the table.
THE PREDICTION
Virat Kohli didn’t try to hide his annoyance when speaking to the media about his side’s beating last time out at the hands of KKR and you would expect RCB to come out all guns blazing in this one, especially in the field, where they have not been up to standard recently. Lucknow Super Giants contain an array of players capable of putting up runs at lightning speed, but if RCB can continue to churn out regular wickets, then they should be able to keep themselves in the game. Winning in Mohali proved that Royal Challengers Bangalore can go to difficult places and win and backing them to do the same in Lucknow looks a shrewd move.
