“So, we bowl first and take the advantage of the first innings and keep the pressure. Not much (on the pitch). The previous game was having a lot of grass. But I think this wicket, I think there is no grass. So, it will be a good track. But yeah, let’s see.”On the other side, LSG skipper Rishabh Pant sounded confident despite his team’s inconsistent run so far. “We’re pretty confident, [it’s a] good batting pitch. Regardless of whether we bat first or second, we need to do well,” he added. “We don’t want too much introspection; put trust in your team and do well. There are a lot of leaders in the group, so go out and perform well. Same team for us.”RCB made one change, bringing in Josh Hazlewood. Patidar said, “I think everyone is doing pretty much good for the team… Just one change. Josh Hazlewood comes in place of Duffy.”With Kohli still available as an Impact Player despite his recent injury, and both teams eager to climb the table, the contest remains evenly poised.Lucknow Super Giants (Playing XI): Aiden Markram, Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant(w/c), Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni, Abdul Samad, Mukul Choudhary, Mohammed Shami, Avesh Khan, Digvesh Singh Rathi, Prince YadavLucknow Super Giants Impact Subs: Manimaran Siddharth, George Linde, Matthew Breetzke, Himmat Singh, Mayank YadavRoyal Challengers Bengaluru (Playing XI): Philip Salt, Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar(c), Jitesh Sharma(w), Tim David, Romario Shepherd, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Suyash Sharma, Rasikh Salam DarRoyal Challengers Bengaluru Impact subs: Virat Kohli, Venkatesh Iyer, Jordan Cox, Kanishk Chouhan, Mangesh Yadav
