In the 43rd match of IPL 2023, Royal Challengers Bangalore will once again be in front of Lucknow Supergiants. This season’s first encounter was very exciting, and Lucknow won on the match’s last ball. The recent form of Lucknow, playing under the captaincy of KL Rahul, is also tremendous, and in the last match, they created havoc against Punjab Kings.
Lucknow’s batting order is in excellent form at the moment. Kyle Mayers played a stormy inning of 54 runs in 24 balls against Punjab, while Nicholas Pooran scored 45 runs in 19 balls, creating havoc. At the same time, Yash Thakur from Lucknow wreaked havoc in bowling by taking four wickets. At the same time, Naveen-ul-Haq took three wickets, and Ravi Bishnoi took two.
Royal Challengers Bangalore faced defeat at the hands of Kolkata Knight Riders in the last match. The performance of RCB bowlers was disappointing against KKR. At the same time, except for Virat Kohli, the rest of the batsmen could not show anything special in batting.
Bowlers dominate in the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. The pitch helps fast bowlers as well as spinners a lot. In the home ground of Lucknow, the ball gets stuck on the bat, and the batters have to struggle a lot to score runs. However, dew can play an important role in the match between Lucknow and RCB.
A total of four matches have been played so far at Lucknow’s Ekana Stadium, out of which two have been won by the team batting first, while two have been won by the team chasing the field. The last match played at this ground between Lucknow and Gujarat was a low scoring one, and Gujarat managed to defend 136 runs.
Rain is possible in the match played between Lucknow and RCB. The sky will be cloudy during the day. Although the chances of rain during the match are less, there can be a chance of thundershowers, so the start of the match can be delayed.
