Top 5 Fantasy Picks for LSG vs RCB Match

On May 9, Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challenger Bengaluru will face each other at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. The match starts at 7:30 PM. Here are the top 5 fantasy picks for today’s game.

Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli is in great form this season. He has scored 505 runs in 11 matches. His average is 63.13, and his strike rate is 143.47. He has hit seven fifties and is the backbone of RCB’s top order.

With his consistency and experience, Kohli is a must-have in your fantasy team for tonight’s match against Lucknow.

Krunal Pandya

Krunal Pandya has been a key all-rounder for Lucknow in IPL 2025. In 11 matches, he has scored 97 runs with a high score of 73*. He has also taken 14 wickets, with his best figures being 4/45.

His economy rate is a bit high at 8.57, but his strike rate with the ball is 15.00. His handy lower-order runs make him a strong fantasy pick.

Yash Dayal

Yash Dayal has shown great improvement since his tough outing in IPL 2023. In IPL 2025, he has taken 10 wickets in 11 matches.

Dayal’s bowling strike rate is 21.60. His consistent spells prove his growth into a more composed and reliable pacer under pressure. This turnaround makes him a valuable pick.

Avesh Khan

Avesh Khan brings power and experience to Lucknow’s pace attack. He has taken 84 IPL wickets overall and 10 this season in 10 matches.

Despite a high economy of 10.11 in 2025, his best figures this year are 3/37. This shows he can still break partnerships when needed, making him a valuable pick in tonight’s fantasy team.

Rishabh Pant

Rishabh Pant has had a quiet IPL 2025 so far with 128 runs in 11 games. But, as captain of LSG in a must-win match, he may choose this game to return to form.

His experience, leadership, and wicketkeeping skills add immense value. If he fires tonight, it could turn the tide for Lucknow’s playoff hopes.
