Thanks for the tag. RCB🥳 Faf🥳

IPL 2023: After being humbled by 81 runs by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Eden Gardens, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) would be eager to return to the winning ways against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Monday.

RCB started the campaign with a thumping win over Mumbai Indians but was blown away by KKR after being the dominating the match initially. On the other hand, LSG had two wins and one loss from their three games. They started off with a thumping 50-run win over Delhi Capitals, then lost to CSK by 12 runs in a high-scoring match but bounced back brilliantly with a five-wicket win against Sunrisers Hyderabad at home.

Friends, just read this---

As viewers, we were so tensed up , but imagine the psychological turmoil and it's impact on the bowler while bowling to Rinku Singh.

IPL is finally here. The theatre of dreams finally shook up the imagination of even the staunchest of KKR fans as well as the general cricket fans yesterday. Five sixes off the final five balls to win a game! It had never happened before. It might not again for a long time. But this jamboree will throttle along.

What has worked for RCB? Their last performance kind of negated their rollicking start against MI. But one would want to believe Kohli and Faf are in good stead. Karn Sharma is yet to be bitten by the curse of oblivion and has been very frugal in the two games which he has played while picking up 4 wickets as well.

There is little history between the two teams as well. Brief as it might be but RCB defeated LSG in the eliminator of IPL 2022. The hero of that game - Rajat Patidar - isn't playing this time around. LSG might still not breathe easy considering it might be a high scoring game. They had played one more game prior to that and RCB won that as well.

But let’s focus on today. The Rinku effort would take away plenty of time. It is time for LSG and RCB to grab the headlines. RCB started off with a bang and then were thudded back in the game after that. LSG have faltered against CSK but barring that have looked solid. RCB have to look beyond their last game and regroup as this game can be very vital for the team’s morale as the last game saw them take some heavy battering. It is right time for them bounce back.

What has worked for LSG so far? Mayers, Wood, Bishnoi, Pooran’s cameos and Ekana wicket! Be it the black soil or the red soil, LSG are looking to master the conditions at Lucknow. Home Sweet Home has been their mantra so far...

"Good evening, some updates from Bangalore: Mark Wood has marked his run-up, so have both David Willey and Wayne Parnell," says Ganesh C from the venue! All of them getting a game or is it just a mirage? We shall know in a bit...

Kohli, du Plessis and Maxwell on one side. Wood (hopefully), Unadkat and Krunal Pandya on the other. Willey and co with the ball. Rahul - eh, it sounds familiar - and his men with the bat. There are individual battles waiting within the contest between teams as a whole.

We aren't sure about Wanindu Hasaranga's availability yet, and Ashish Pant, our eyes at the ground, says he hasn't spotted him yet. His side RCB need to bounce back after a drubbing back in Kolkata, even as LSG look to build on some momentum of their own. Alagappan Muthu's preview says as much, with today's visiting captain - yeah - being none other than local boy KL Rahul.
