The LSG vs RCB match is expected to be a low-scoring encounter. 165 is the highest total made in Lucknow after 4 matches. One has to remember that pitches slow down due to wear and tear in the second half of IPL. That suggests the par score will remain between 150 and 170. The ball comes better under lights, which is why teams prefer to chase. The data proves this, as chasing teams have an advantage at the venue.

LSG is one of the few teams that can match RCB’s powerplay bowling. Mohsin Khan, Mohammed Shami, and Prince Yadav can go toe-to-toe with Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. But LSG lacks wicket-takers in the middle overs. Digvesh Rathi and M Siddharth haven’t taken wickets like Suyash Sharma and Krunal Pandya.
But the batting is the biggest point of difference. Akshat Raghuwanshi and Josh Inglis are the only two LSG batters with strike rates of over 150, and they’ve scored 11 and 13 runs, respectively. Meanwhile, RCB have 4 batters with at least 200 runs and a strike rate of over 165. That’s why RCB will have an advantage in the match.
