Match Preview
The 15th clash of the Indian Premier League will have Royal Challengers Bengaluru hosting Lucknow Super Giants at home on April 2, Tuesday. The Faf du Plessis side have played three games and came on top in only one of them. Lucknow, on the flip side, registered one loss and one win in the two games they played in the 2024 season of the tournament. Both sides would aim to add one more win to their account in their next match on Tuesday.
Toss Prediction
Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Lucknow Super Giants have played four games against each other in the previous editions of the Indian Premier League so far. In all of their previous matches, the Lucknow skipper recorded wins in three of four tosses, whereas the Bengaluru skipper could only win one toss. Speaking of the upcoming match we think Faf du Plessis would win the toss over KL Rahul, considering the home-ground factor might favour him.
Win Possibility
As mentioned, RCB and LSG have faced each other in four matches in the Indian Premier League; out of those formers emerged victorious in three matches, whereas Lucknow secured victory in one game. Speaking of their previous year’s performance, Bengaluru finished in sixth position, whereas Lucknow, under the leadership of Krunal Pandya and KL Rahul, were successful in earning a play-off spot.
The RCB squad in the 2024 season is a perfect combination of experienced stars and promising youth. The team features batting wizards such as Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli, who have always posted decent scores for the franchise. The bowling squad comprises names like Cameron Green, Glenn Maxwell, Mayank Dagar, and more.
Speaking of the LSG squad, the team saw the return of their skipper KL Rahul, and the wicketkeeper-batter looks fresh and promising in the new season of the tournament. Apart from him, names like Nicholas Pooran, Quinton de Kock, Krunal Pandya, and Devdutt Padikkal make the side a strong team. However, they have an inexperienced bowling unit, which might prove to be dangerous for the side considering Virat Kohli’s form.
The upcoming match is going to be an exciting clash, and both teams will push to their maximum to ensure a win. However, considering the home-ground factor, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that RCB are favourites to emerge victorious.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium of Bengaluru is known to be a high-scoring ground. The cricketing venue hosted a total of 89 IPL games thus far and has a first-inning score of 172. In the upcoming clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Lucknow Super Giants, we can expect the first-inning score to be around 185-195 and the powerplay score to be around 45-55.
