Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are all set to take on the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the eliminator of IPL 2022 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The KL Rahul side finished third in the points table and they are coming on the back of a nail-biting thriller against Kolkata Knight Riders in the previous game. The side is likely to bring back regulars like Krunal Pandya and Ayush Badoni for the upcoming fixture after being benched for their last league game. On the other hand, RCB finished off their league stage campaign in fourth place with a victory over the Gujarat Titans and also were helped out by Mumbai Indians to make it to the top four. The Faf du Plessis-led side was impressive in both the departments and the franchise was immensely relieved with their talisman Virat Kohli returning to form. Mohammad Siraj might be brought back into the playing XI at the expense of Siddharth Kaul. MATCH DETAILS: Venue: Eden Gardens, Kolkata Date & Time: May 25, 7:30 PM PITCH REPORT Both teams will be looking to stack their side with a lot of spin options considering the Eden Gardens pitch traditionally but the cloudy cover might help the fast bowlers as well. Both skippers will be looking to bat first after winning the toss as any score above 150 is going to be difficult to chase down in a high-pressure encounter.

The right-hander adjusted his technique slightly which helped him massively and ended up with a 73-run knock at the top of the order. He will be looking to continue his good form and step up yet again in an important fixture. PROBABLE THE BEST BOWLER OF THE MATCH JOSH HAZLEWOOD: Josh Hazlewood made a good return in the previous game after going for plenty in the game against Punjab Kings and finished with two wickets The Australian has proved to be an excellent pick by the RCB so far and his economy rate has been phenomenal as well. With his ability to win games on his own, Hazlewood will be a potent option for skipper Faf du Plessis at the death overs and in the powerplay. Today’s match prediction: RCB to win the game.
