IPL 2022, LSG vs RCB highlights: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Tuesday defeated Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by 18 runs in Match 31 of IPL 2022 at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. Chasing a target of 182, LSG were restricted to a total of 163/8 as Josh Hazlewood took four for 25. Krunal Pandya (42) and KL Rahul (30) put one a decent fight with the bat LSG kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Earlier, Faf du Plessis slammed a brilliant 96 as RCB recovered from a top-order collapse to post 181 for six against LSG. RCB were earlier reeling at 62/4 before Du Plessis and Shahbaz Ahmed (26) added 70 runs for the fifth wicket. Initially, LSG won the toss and elected to bowl. (SCORECARD)
Stoinis is fumings. Hazlewood does the trick. Stoinis shuffles way way outside off in the context of the previous ball that was not called a wide and is standing almost on the wide guideline trying to play a full ball into the leg side and inside edge's this onto the stumps.
Maxwell strikes! Slightly short on off stump and Krunal struggles keeping his hands back on a pull. He can't get any power behind it and picks out the man on the rope.
RCB make a half-hearted appeal. But they eventually go for the review. The replay shows there's a spike. Rahul is surprised, he even gestures to the dugout if there was something on the UltraEdge.
Another soft dismissal. Hazlewood gets his second. Short of length at the body, Pandey goes for the pull but the ball hits him high on the bat. A simple catch for Harshal at forward square leg.
Hazlewood off to a perfect start. A length ball angling across de Kock, who pushes at it tentatively and gets an outside edge. Maxwell takes a sharp catch at first slip.
Mindblowing recovering from RCB, courtesy Faf's 96. They were 62/4 at one stage. Momentum, however, surely swinging back to LSG. Will be an interesting chase coming up.
Du Plessis misses his hundred again. Slammed short, and Faf tries to pull this over deep backward square. Results in heartbreak for du Plessis as he holds out to Stoinis.
Second boundary of the over. Du Plessis moves into the 90s. Bishnoi tries to skid this on quicker on fourth stump. Faf goes back to cut and manages to beat backward point and short third man.
Too full from Bishnoi and Faf fires a firm drive past Bishnoi's diving effort through mid-off and beats the man who was fielding very wide on the rope.
Prabhudessai has thrown away his wicket. Dances down the track to this length ball and looks to work it on the leg side. Mistimes and it goes up in the air. Easy catch.
That's an outstanding catch. A length ball around off. Maxwell goes for the reverse sweep but fails to middle it. It goes to the left of Holder, going away from him.
