Preview
RCB vs LSG will take on each other in the 15th match of the IPL 2024. Both teams have had a similar start to their campaign in the ongoing tournament. Both teams lost the first match of their campaign away from home. In their second match, which took place at their respective home grounds, both teams managed to make a comeback and register a win. The only difference is that RCB lost their previous game.
Against arch-rivals KKR, RCB suffered a humiliating loss. Batting first, the home side managed to score only 182 runs. KKR chased down the target with ease and won the match by seven wickets with 20 balls to spare. The match between RCB and LSG will happen at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The home side would be hoping to return to winning ways after suffering a huge loss in their previous match. They do have some concerns in their lineup, which might be addressed in the game against LSG.
On the other hand, LSG will be flying high with their recent win against PBKS. The Lucknow-based franchise unearthed a terrific talent in the game in the form of Mayank Yadav for whom there seems to be no limit to the pace. The right-arm pacer bowled a deadly spell where none of his deliveries clocked below a pace of 140 kmph. Apart from him, LSG has some of the best players in the world, who will have to go against some of the best players in the dugout of RCB.

Pitch Report
Captains: 9
Glenn Maxwell RCB | all
Glenn Maxwell has not been as good as we know of him as a batter in the IPL 2024. However, he can turn up in the game against LSG both as a batter and as a bowler to make a big impact. One cannot keep a quality player like him quiet for a long time.
Cameron Green RCB | all
Much like Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green has not been able to fire as a batter. He played at number 5 in the first game and number 3 in the following games. RCB would love to see him fire with the bat and deliver some crucial overs with the ball.
Nicholas Pooran LSG | wk
Nicholas Pooran has been in brilliant hitting form as usual. In the first game against RR, the southpaw scored 64 runs in 41 balls. In the second game against PBKS, he led LSG to a win and scored 42 runs off 21 balls.
Virat RCB | BAT
Virat Kohli has been good as a batter in the ongoing tournament. The star batter has 181 runs in 3 innings at an average of 90.50. He is currently the leading run scorer in the tournament and can come good against LSG.
Faf du Plessis RCB | BAT
Faf du Plessis has not fired with the bat in the last two games. After scoring a brisk 36 against CSK, he could not do well against PBKS and KKR. But the Proteas batter will be expected to deliver the goods with the bat against LSG.
Vijaykumar Vyshak RCB | bowl
Vijaykumar Vyshak bowled well in the last game against KKR. He was one of the fewest bowlers from RCB to bowl according to the conditions. In the middle-over phase, he bowled well with slower ones and cutters.
Mayank Yadav LSG | bowl
Mayank Yadav was brilliant in the game against PBKS. The youngster clocked 140 kmph and threatened the batters with his sheer pace. In his spell, the 21-year-old claimed 3/26 and won the Player of the Match award.
