Royal Challengers Bangalore Predicted XI vs Lucknow Super Giants: Will RCB Make Any Changes To Their Side?
After beginning their campaign with a memorable eight-wicket win over Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore faced a terrible defeat by 81 runs against Kolkata Knight Riders in their previous IPL 2023 match. The Faf du Plessis led-side will now be going up against Lucknow Super Giants for their next match on Monday.

Lucknow Super Giants Predicted XI vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, IPL 2023: Will Quinton De Kock Remain On Bench?
Lucknow Super Giants registered a five-wicket win over SunRisers Hyderabad in their previous IPL 2023 match. With an all-round performance from Krunal Pandya and a careful knock of 35 off 31 balls from skipper KL Rahul, LSG chased down the target of 122 in just 16 overs. Now LSG will be squaring off against Royal Challengers Bangalore in their next match on Monday at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. In the previous match, South Africa wicketkeeper-batter Quinton de Kock was not included in the Playing XI, despite being available for the selection. It will be interesting to see whether the KL Rahul-led side would include him and replace Marcus Stoinis.

Shikhar Dhawan Creates History, Becomes Second Batter Ever To Claim Massive IPL Feat
Shikhar Dhawan produced a special performance but fell agonisingly close to a well-deserved century during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 encounter between Punjab Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday. Dhawan held his own while wickets continued to tumble on the other end, and he finished on 99 off 66 deliveries with the help of 12 fours and five sixes. In the process, Dhawan became the second batter ever in history to bat with all his other teammates during a single IPL innings. The only other person to achieve this feat was Parthiv Patel for Chennai Super Kings back in 2019.
