Royal Challengers Bangalore will aim to shed the over reliance on their celebrated top-order when they face a belligerent Lucknow Super Giants on Monday. RCB have struggled to maintain momentum provided by Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell, who have done all the scoring in the eight games so far. It is high time the likes of Mahipal Lomror, Shahbaz Ahmed and Dinesh Karthik step up. LSG, on the other hand, head into the game after a thumping victory against Punjab Kings. The batting performance against Punjab was a testament to the firepower they possessed. No total is safe when Kyle Mayers, Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran get going. On a batting beauty in Mohali, LSG batters went on the rampage but they have struggled due to the slow nature of the surface in Lucknow.
