LSG    vs    KKR
Let's enjoy the Lucknow vs KKR's match. I think this match will be competeting. But in the previous match, Kolkata lost to Lucknow by a huge margin. Probably Lucknow gave a target of 176 runs. But Kolkata ended their innings with only 101 runs. And so I think Lucknow will play well today. After losing the last two matches, they need to win today's match. Lucknow's batsmen are quite experienced. My prediction is that Lucknow will be able to give a target of 185-195 runs today. And that is enough to win against Kolkata.

After 15th overs, LSG are able to collect 122 runs. But they didn't lose any wicket. Q.de Kock is unbeaten on 69(48) and K.L Rahul is unbeten on 52(43). Despite having two such experienced batsmen at the crease, their run rate is only 8.13. I don't think the pitch is bowling friendly. LSG should collect at least 70 runs in the last 5 overs.

De Kock and KL Rahul have collected 88 runs in the last 5 overs. Tim Southee has gave 27 runs in the 19th over. And Russell gave 19 runs in the last over. Lucknow has given a huge target of 210 in 20 overs. I don't see any chance for Kolkata to win this match. Quinton de Kock scored 140 off 70 balls. He has hit 10 fours and 10 over boundaries. Rahul's collection is 68 runs from 51 balls.

Rahul's consistency is admirable. KL Rahul has had a fantastic season so far, today scoring fifty and unbeaten on 68! While Quinton de Kock scored a magnificent century, staying unbeaten at 140! LSG did not lose a single wicket, as both batsmen unbeaten rallied till the 20th over and totaled 210 runs. This shows the level of bowling quality in the league, again on batting-friendly pitches.

Nitish Rana scored 39 off 16 balls and Shreyas Iyer scored 15 off 6 balls. At the end of 6 overs, Kolkata lost two wickets for 60 runs. Rana and Iyer's partnership is progressing well. If they can stay at the crease till these 15 overs, the match will be completely under the control of Kolkata. However, it is very difficult to win the target of 211 runs.

Kolkata scored 134 runs in 15 overs. Although they collected well enough, they lost 4 wickets. Billings and Russell are in the crease now. These two are experienced enough players for the t20 format. However, Kolkata still needs 77 runs from 30 balls to win. Although Billings and Russell are experienced players, it is still very difficult for Kolkata to win this match.

What a game from Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders. LSG scored 210 runs without losing a wicket. KKR played marvelous innings, but the middle order game from Andre Russell made mistake increasing the required run rate. Finally Rinku played the best and turned the game towards them. It was bad luck for KKR, because Rinku lost the wicket to the bowling of Stonis and caught by Lewis which is an unexpected one. Losing after a hard fight on a small margin is really sad.

With this lost KKR are now out of IPL 2022. What a display of batting from kock and Rahul, they both just destroyed KKR bowling lineup. KKR batting was equally good in reply, its just a bad luck for KKR that they were just 2 runs short of LSG target. 140 runs by kock are just too much from a batsman in T20.

No one expected such close game today. I thought Kolkata will loss the match by at least 20 runs. Lucknow had set a big target. de Kock has played a magnificent innings for LSG. Kolkata is eliminated now. Lewis deserve the credit for this victory of Lucknow. He took a great catch of Rinku Singh in the last over. KKR would have won the match if he missed that difficult catch.

Absolutely amazing match between KKR and LSG. I thought also that KKR would lose the match against LSG because total run was high to chase. But it was so close to win the natch for KKR. Both teams played very well. de Kock you're beauty, A great innings from de Kock.

Last over and last 5 balls were like a roller coaster. At one moment I felt KKR would win but after Rinku Singh got out I knew LSG has taken over the game. I never thought it would be easy for KKR to chase such a huge target, thanks to de kock who contributed 140 runs out of 210 set by LSG as the target. Sometimes you do feel sorry for the other teams and in this game I felt sorry for KKR.

[Sithara007]

So close, yet so far.

To be honest, I never expected KKR to put up such an amazing chase. Especially after both their openers (Venkatesh Iyer and Abhijeet Tomar getting dismissed so cheaply). The KKR middle order was on fire and every one contributed. Nitish Rana, Shreyas Iyer and Sam Billings added quick runs. They lost the match because Andre Russell wasted so many deliveries and couldn't rotate the strike once Billings got out. Rinku Singh destroyed the LSG bowlers, but got out at the most crucial moment. 3 runs were needed from the last 2 balls, and it was achievable.

I never imagined that Kolkata would be able to score 208 runs. In the previous match against Lucknow, Kolkata probably lost all their wickets by 101 runs. So in this match, I thought Kolkata's innings would stop within 160 runs. But the performance of every batsman in Kolkata's middle order was impressive. However, I am happy with the defeat of Kolkata, because I bet on the victory of Lucknow.

And this shattered KKR dreams of reaching to next level. The highlight of match was batting of Quinton de Kock, he was dropped at very begging and he took full advantage of that drop catch. 100 runs of Quinton de Kock innings comes through 4s and 6s. KKR no doubt played well but we have only winner and that was LSG yesterday.

Titans vs Royal Challengers

I don't think Gujarat Titans are going to take this match seriously because they have already qualified for the next stage and there is nothing to prove for them in this match. On the other hand, RCB needs to win really big otherwise they will be behind in terms of net run rate.

At first, I thought that RCB is going to win this match even though they might not win by a big difference but Gujarat Titans have won the toss and decided to bat and that certainly got me thinking because I believe that team that is going to bat first has the advantage.

GT VS RCB
GT at first place with 20 points in the point table. RCB needs to win today’s match to stay in the playoffs. Unfortunately, the strong openers of Gujarat Titans lost early. GT is now 21-1 after 2.3 overs.

KKR actually played really well and I don't think anyone expected this type of batting performance from them. I was really impressed by the batting of Quinton De Kock by the way. Scoring more than 150 runs in a t20 match is not easy at all. It was a really good batting performance from both teams. Absolutely a batting-friendly pitch. Well, now we can clearly say that KKR is not going to qualify through the next round.

Gujarat has already qualified for the next round. And so today's match is a completely unimportant match for Gujarat. On the other hand, RCB must win this match by any means. I think Bangalore will win the match today. Gujarat has given a target of only 189 runs today. If Kohli can play well, winning this match will be easy for Bangalore.

The match is completely under the control of Bangalore. Bangalore lost their first wicket in 14.3 overs. They scored 115 runs in the first wicket partnership. They collected 121 runs in 15 overs. Only 48 runs from 30 balls are needed to win. Kohli is still at the crease with 6 runs scored. At the same time Glenn Maxwell is a very experienced player.

[Vaskiy]

Royal Challengers keeps the playoff hope alive with the win against Gujarat Titans by 8 wickets and 8 balls left. In today's match RCB players contributed good, and it was possible to see their natural game than playing under pressure. However the match of Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians result is gonna decide who's gonna get into playoff, because RR have got better run rate than Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Finally Virat Kohli has played a great innings today and it has kept their hope alive for the playoff round. All other teams are eliminated now except Delhi Capitals. Delhi still have the chance to qualify for the playoff round. They will qualify if they win the next match against Mumbai.

~ However the match of Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians result is gonna decide who's gonna get into playoff, because RR have got better run rate than Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Rajasthan has only one match left, which is against Chennai. Mumbai will play against Delhi. Rajasthan has the highest chance to qualify among those 3 teams (Rajasthan, Bangalore & Delhi). Delhi has better Nrr, they will get the 4th rank if they win their next match. In that case, Bangalore will be eliminated. I think you have mixed up the fixture.

Bangalore's performance in today's match was very good. I would say every player on the team contributed to the team's victory. The bowlers performed well. In just 168 runs, they managed to stop the Gujarat team. The performance of the top three batsmen in the top order was outstanding. Kohli in particular is back in form. He has collected 73 runs. Maxwell made 40 off just 18 balls. Above all, thanks to the contribution of every player in the team, Bangalore easily won today.
