RCB and LSG will face off on April 2 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru in the 17th season of the cash-rich league.
In their first-ever meeting, Faf du Plessis proved to be too hot to handle for the KL Rahul-led LSG. The former Proteas cricketer hammered a 64-ball 96 to help his side post 181-6 in 20 overs. Chasing 182, Australian seamer Josh Hazlewood proved to be too hot to handle for the LSG batters. Hazlewood took 4 wickets- including the prized scalp of Rahul- at the expense of 25 runs in his quota of 4 overs, ensuring LSG finished 18 runs short of the target.
Their next encounter took place in the Eliminator, where a majestic unbeaten 54-ball 112* from the stylish Rajat Patidar proceeded to land a killer blow on the debutants.
Patidar's knock, which was laced with 12 fours and 7 thunderous sixes, propelled RCB to 207/4 in 20 overs, and while KL Rahul (79 off 58) and Deepak Hooda (45 off 26) tried their best, it proved to be a bridge too far to bridge.
In their last encounter, RCB won against LSG by 18 runs, and Faf du Plessis was adjudged the player of the match for his 44 off 40 balls.
