Today Cricket Match Prediction, Lucknow Super Giant vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, IPL T20, Eliminator Match. Who Will Win, On May 25, 2022

The Eliminator match of IPL 2022 between Lucknow Super Giant and Royal Challengers Bangalore will be played on Wednesday, 25 May 2022 at The Eden Gardens, Kolkata. The match will start at 07:30 PM local time.

The most recent match of LSG was very interesting against KKR which they won by the margin of just two runs. We mentioned in the previous IPL predictions that the batting order of LSG is very strong and experienced which is led by Quinton de Kock and KL Rahul with Ayush Badoni, Deepak Hooda, Krunal Pandya, Marcus Stoinis, and Jason Holder. KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock are opening the batting inning of LSG and they had provided a good opening start for the rest of the batters. The most recent match against KKR is a big example of it where they scored 210 runs in 20 overs without losing any wicket. de Kock proved the highest run-scorer with 140 runs to his name on just 70 balls with the help of 10 boundaries and the same huge sixes. On the other side, KL Rahul also was good with the bat and scored 68 runs on 51 balls. He smashed three boundaries and four huge sixes during his inning. Both openers of LSG remained not out the 20th over. We don’t think that they will make any changes in the batting order and the batting squad will remain the same in this match.

RCB had beaten the most successful team of IPL 2022, Gujarat in the previous match, and their morale should be high for this match. The bowling and batting departments of RCB are strong and experienced. The bowling department of Banalgore was good in the previous match against GT where they leaked 168 runs in 20 overs. S Kaul, Shahbaz Ahmed, Josh Hazlewood, Glenn Maxwell, Mahipal Lomror, W Hasaranga, and Harshal Patel are the leading bowlers of Bangalore. These are the bowlers who can create problems for the batting order of any strong team. Josh Hazlewood was the most successful bowler in the previous match with two wickets to his name in four overs against 39 runs. W Hasaranga and Glenn Maxwell picked one wicket each while Harshal Patel, Lomror, Shahbaz Ahmed, and S Kaul were the bowlers who could not manage to pick any wicket. We can expect some major changes in the playing eleven of RCB for this match as this match is very important.

Lucknow had played just one match against Banglore where they lost that match.

Lucknow Super Giant had won three out of the most recent five matches they had played while Royal Challengers Bangalore had won three matches out of five recently played matches.

Royal Challengers Bangalore is a strong and well-balanced team and has a strong batting and bowling department which is in good form. The batting and bowling squad of this team is much stronger at least on papers. According to today’s prediction, Royal Challengers Bangalore is the favorite team that will win this match. There are many factors that make Royal Challengers Bangalore a favorite team to win this match. Some of the key factors are mentioned as under:

• RCB had already beaten Lucknow in IPL 2022

The Eliminator match of IPL T20, 2022 is going to be held at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting in early overs. The track has a good amount of pace and bounce which allows the batsmen to the good cricketing shorts but this ground also have big boundaries which can be a plus point for the bowlers.
