LSG vs RCB Highlights

It was a brilliant effort first of all by Rajat Patidar with the bat who scored a magnificent 112* to take the Royal Challengers Bangalore to 207 in the first innings. Then Harshal Patel's figures of 1-25 in four overs made sure that Lucknow Super Giants could reach only as far as 193-6. This way the two secured a 14 run victory for their team and pushed it to Qualifier 2 where they will take on the loser of Qualifier-1, Rajasthan Royals at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on May 27, 2022. 

LSG vs RCB Player of the Match: Rajat Patidar

Rajat Patidar was rightly declared player of the match for his amazing innings of 112* off just 54 balls. He was striking at more than 200 and hit 12 fours and seven sixes in that marathon knock which lasted from the first over till the last over of the RCB innings. His was the knock that set up the victory for the team and mattered a lot in the end given that no other RCB player even crossed the 40 run mark with the bat

LSG vs RCB Eliminator Live Updates: Harshal keeps his calm to deliver 14 run win

 
Harshal Patel is into the attack 
 
Ball 1 Sensational from Hasaranga as he saves a four almost 
 
Ball 2 Wide outside off and called a wide 
 
Ball 2 That was a great short ball and Chameera wanted to run a single, but Lewis sent him back, for reasons very much unknown. Maybe he doesn’t have the confidence in himself
 
Ball 3 Six!! Or maybe because Chameera could hit them big too as he has on this occasion 
 
Ball 4 Single 
 
Ball 5 Dot ball. Evin Lewis has not been able to connect even a single ball here properly 
 
Ball 6 And it would remain the same as yet again it is a dot ball. Two in a row and Bangalore would seal a place in the Qualifier 2 with a 14 run win here 
 
Lucknow Super Giants Live Score 193-6 after 20 overs
 
12:11 AM

LSG vs RCB Eliminator Live Updates: Hazlewood changes the complexion of the game, Lucknow now need 24 off 6

 
Josh Hazlewood is into the attack 
 
Ball 1 Dot ball as it was a brilliant wide yorker and nothing can be done by Rahul off it 
 
Ball 2 Now this one was called wide 
 
Ball 2 Nails the low full toss does Hazlewood again and once again, Rahul is unable to get the ball away. When only 33 was needed off the last 18 balls, it was there in Lucknow’s favour and their match to lose. Now it is totally RCB’s 
 
Ball 3 Wide down leg 
 
Ball 3 Wide again. He is still targeting the wide outside off stump line to the right hander, but Lewis is lefty Hazy!! 
 
Ball 3 No connection from Evin Lewis whatsoever and Rahul runs a bye 
 
Ball 4 Wicket!! That would be the match then for RCB I guess as Rahul has played an unorthodox which is absolutely not his forte and has got the scoop straight in the hands of Shahbaz Ahmed at short fine leg 
 
Ball 5 Wicket!! That would be two in a row now and it is Krunal Pandya this time around. A high full toss and he had no shots to offer at all as he played it back to Hazlewood who was caught behind 
 
Ball 6 Four!! That would be the end of it and now Evin Lewis needs to hit 24 off the last over to win it for Lucknow 
 
Lucknow Super Giants Live Score 184-4 after 19 overs

LSG vs RCB Eliminator Live Updates: Brilliant bowling from Harshal

 
Harshal Patel is into the attack 
 
Ball 1 Too wide off stump and it has been called a wide 
 
Ball 1 That would be Five Wides as Dinesh Karthik also misses the ball which was already too wide from around the wicket to Stonis. Even if he bowls normal, he would have been better than this I guess 
 
Ball 1 See, told You. He was always better bowing over the wicket and just short of a length. Dot ball 
 
Ball 2 Only called the first bouncer of the over as Stoinis is unable to get a hang of it 
 
Ball 3 Wicket!! That is as easy as it can get. It was wide, it was outside off and all Stoinis could do was hit to the deep cover Patidar who did not have to move at all from his position 
 
Ball 4 All Lewis could do here is get a single off this one. Just seven off the first four balls and a wicket. That is brilliant from Harshal so far 
 
Ball 5 Flicked away, but straight to deep backward square leg and it is only a single 
 
Ball 6 It's a dot ball. This has been brilliant from Harshal who goes for just 8 runs and also takes a wicket to go with it 
 
Lucknow Super Giants Live Score 175-4 after 18 overs

Hasaranga is into the attack 
 
Ball 1 Single off the first ball here off Hasaranga’s last over 
 
Ball 2  Swept and swept hard on the round arm ball and only a single for Stoinis here 
 
Ball 3 Six!! Comes across to the offside and takes the ball on middle and leg and sweeps sit over fine leg for a six 
 
Ball 4 Four!! Gets it fine off the bat here as well and gets it past short fine leg for a four 
 
Ball 5 Worked away on the on side for single 
 
Ball 6 Only a single will end the over here as 14 runs come from it 
 
Lucknow Super Giants Live Score 167-3 after 17 overs

LSG vs RCB Eliminator Live Updates: 10 from the Siraj over

 
Mohd Siraj is into the attack 
 
Ball 1 High, almost a bouncer and hit down the ground for a single by Rahul 
 
Ball 2  Slower yorker executed by Siraj and that would just be a single here 
 
Ball 3 Wow. That’s a great execution of slow bouncer as Rahul had no shot to offer on that and it's a dot 
 
Ball 4 Six!! Now, he did pick that one as he dispatches it down the ground for a huge six down the ground 
 
Ball 5 And this one was once again back of length effort ball and played off teh back foot for a single 
 
Ball 6 Wide outside off and called a wide too. Gotta reload 
 
Ball 6 And that would be dot ball to end the over here. Only 10 from it when Lucknow needed 13 an over 
 
Lucknow Super Giants Live Score 153-3 after 16 overs

LSG vs RCB Eliminator Live Updates: Runs won't stop

 
Hasaranga is into the attack 
 
Ball 1 Six!! Hooda is coming of age here. He has now taken on Hasaranga on the very first ball and has dispatched him for a huge six over deep mid-wicket 
 
Ball 2 Slowr and a top spinner from Hasaranga and that would be a dot ball as it keeps very low 
 
Ball 3 Six!! Hooda is really coming of age here. This is amazing hitting from the batter as he comes down the ground and hits it far and high for a six 
 
Ball 4 Wicket!! That would be the end of Hooda as Hasaranga slowed the speed and pulled the length back and Hood went for the all expensive slog sweep and missed the ball which hit the middle of his middle stump
 
Ball 5 Stonisi gets a googly first up and he can only play it back to the bowler 
 
Ball 6 Six!! Would you believe it, just the second ball he is facing and Stonisi slogs it for a huge six to end the over 
 
Lucknow Super Giants Live Score 143-3 after 15 overs
