In the big IPL 2024 match between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), all eyes are on whether Mayank Yadav can outshine Virat Kohli. RCB, led by Faf du Plessis, really wants to bounce back after losing two of their first three matches, even at their home ground. Their main problem is their batting lineup, which relies heavily on Kohli’s great performance with 181 runs across three games, including two half-centuries.
Unfortunately, apart from Kohli, their other main batters like du Plessis, Maxwell, and Green haven’t done much, with Maxwell even getting no runs in one match. On the bowling side, Yash Dayal has been their best, getting three wickets in three matches.

RCB vs LSG last year had turned out to be quite a controversial match. Last week, RCB vs KKR failed to live up to the expectation. It will be interesting to see whether the sparks fly tonight but I will be keen on watching Mayank Yadav's duel against Virat Kohli. What's your…

On the other hand, LSG, boosted by their recent win against Punjab Kings, has a strong batting lineup with great performances from KL Rahul, Nicholas Pooran, and Quinton de Kock. And now, Mayank Yadav’s fast bowling adds depth to their bowling, with his fast deliveries consistently reaching over 155 kph, making him a player to watch.
Even though RCB has had the upper hand in their past matches against LSG, this IPL game promises an exciting battle between Kohli’s batting and Yadav’s fast bowling. LSG will try to use their current momentum to beat RCB in Bengaluru.

RCB: Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis (c), Cameron Green, Rajat Patidar, Glenn Maxwell, Anuj Rawat (wk), Dinesh Karthik, Alzarri Joseph, Mayank Dagar, Mohammed Siraj, Yash Dayal.
