The 31st match of the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League is currently underway at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai, where the Royal Challengers Bangalore are taking on the Lucknow Super Giants. LSG captain KL Rahul won the toss and decided to bowl first. The decision worked in LSG’s favor as Dushmantha Chameera left RCB reeling at 7/2 at the end of the first over.
Faf du Plessis and Anuj Rawat opened the innings for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. However, they failed to provide a good start to the team. Youngster Rawat handed a catch to KL Rahul on the fifth ball of the match.
Former Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli came out to bat at number three. Kohli placed the ball from Chameera towards the backward point region, and the ball went straight into the hands of the fielder Deepak Hooda.
Talking about what happened at the toss of the match between the Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants, both captains said that they were playing with an unchanged side, having won their respective previous fixtures. Here’s what KL Rahul said after winning the toss:
“We will bowl first. I think so. If you ask me now, all teams would like to bowl first and know what they’re chasing. You know how the game is. It can go up and down. I got a couple of first ball ducks before the hundred. So it’s good.”
