LSG have impressed in their debut season, with their bowling unit standing out in recent weeks.

Date and Time: 25th May 2022, 7:30 PM IST
Venue: Eden Gardens, Kolkata
Pitch Report
While the weather is a concern, at least a shortened game can be expected at the Eden Gardens. The pacers should get the ball to move around in the early stages, keeping the batters on their toes. Although the spinners should get some turn as well, the dew factor could go against them. With inclement weather likely to come into the conversation, both IPL teams will look to chase upon winning the toss.
Today’s LSG vs RCB Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
KL Rahul: KL Rahul has led the Super Giants well this season with his batting exploits holding him in good stead. Although he has faced some criticism over his sedate approach early on in his innings, Rahul is as dependable as they come in this format. With the LSG captain in decent form, he is a good addition to your LSG vs RCB Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli finally struck form in IPL 2022, scoring a fifty against the Gujarat Titans in what was a do-or-die game. The former RCB captain is one of the best players to grace the IPL with his numbers speaking for themselves. Although LSG's pace attack bares a strong look, Kohli's range and effectiveness against pace makes him a viable option ahead of the game.
All-rounder
Glenn Maxwell: Glenn Maxwell also found some form against the Gujarat Titans, putting in a fine all-round performance. The Aussie is a fine player of spin with his match-up against Ravi Bishnoi being crucial to the outcome of this match. With Maxwell capable of winning games singlehandedly, he is one to watch out for today.
Bowler
Ravi Bishnoi: Speaking of Ravi Bishnoi, the young leggie has blown hot and cold in IPL 2022. While Glenn Maxwell is one match-up he will look forward to, the rest of the RCB batting unit are slightly susceptible to spin, bringing him into play. With the conditions likely to help him too, he is a must-have in your LSG vs RCB Dream11 fantasy team.
