IPL 2022 Eliminator, LSG vs RCB: Moment of reckoning for Lucknow Super Giants, Royal Challengers Bangalore

RCB clinch a last-four berth in this IPL, but the Faf du Plessis-led side will be on their own, with no second chance on offer, when they face Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator at the Eden Gardens on Wednesday. The posts that went viral on social media highlighting RCB's celebrations shows how keen the side is about making it count this time.

Virat Kohli is a modern day great is no secret. The former India captain has over the years wowed cricket fans across the world with his batting prowess. But just like it has happened to most cricketing greats in the past, Virat too is going through a lean patch.
