LSG vs RCB: Players To Watch Out For
Avesh Khan: The star Indian pacer had a memorable outing for Lucknow against RCB in one of their encounters in IPL 2023, when LSG bagged a thrilling one-wicket win. He would have that in mind, and his death bowling skills might be crucial against the hard-hitting duo of David and Shepherd.
Romario Shepherd: The Windies allrounder smashed the Chennai Super Kings bowling attack all around the park in the last game and if he can take the attack to an otherwise inconsistent LSG bowling line-up, RCB will have a huge upper hand in the game.
