Match Preview

Lucknow Supergiants’ regular captain KL Rahul took the field as an impact player in the last match against Punjab Kings. Lucknow has to face Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) today and once again all eyes will be on whether Rahul will enter this match as an impact player or will be seen handling the responsibility completely. Lucknow management says that Rahul should not be given too much workload while returning from injury, hence he is being played as an impact player.It is a matter of relief for Lucknow that its uncapped Indian fast bowler Mayank Yadav is consistently bowling at a speed of 150 kmph. He bowled the fastest ball of this season of IPL in his debut match against Punjab Kings and impressed everyone with his performance. In front of RCB batsmen, once again all eyes will be on Mayank Yadav.

Faf Duplessis, who has not been able to impress with his bat so far in the current season of IPL, will have to perform better against Lucknow. Duplessis’ bat is on fire against the Lucknow bowlers. Duplessis has scored runs at a strike rate of 155.6 against Ravi Bishnoi and Shivam Mavi, while his strike rate against Krunal Pandya is 127.The bat of Virat Kohli, who returned to the field from IPL after a long time, is also speaking strongly in this season of IPL. He has scored half-centuries in the last two matches. If Lucknow wants to put pressure on RCB, then they will have to send Kohli to the pavilion soon.Apart from Kohli, Duplessis, Glenn Maxwell, Rajat Patidar and Cameron Green also need to perform better.
