Description: Mumbai win the toss and opt to bowl first vs Kolkata.

When Mike Hesson in RCB’s podcast mentioned his team’s long-term plan, he had Faf du Plessis in mind. RCB’s Director of Cricket Operations has chalked out a 3-year-long plan with Faf du Plessis at the helm.
Apparently, the former South African skipper is 37. Though his fitness cannot be challenged, it is clear that in the near future RCB are not planning to hand the reins to a younger mind. While his predecessor, Virat Kohli, who is 33 currently might turn out to be their alternate choice, it is most unlikely that he will take up the job again.
Even Mega Auctions are far from sight which might have given the team a chance to pick younger players with a perspective of either directly making them the skipper or grooming them at least.
Along similar lines, is Chennai’s MS Dhoni!
While Faf du Plessis, at 37, is still persistent with his form. With 443 runs at a strike rate of 130, the skipper is the team’s highest runscorer. However, this is not the case with the much-loved ‘Thala’ of Chennai Super Kings. MSD in Chennai’s last league game confirmed that he will lead CSK in 2023 as well.
Although, MSD’s captaincy skills are undeniably the finest, do the 4-time champions really need a skipper who had only contributed with 232 runs at a strike rate of 123?
In Ravindra Jadeja, they had a potential option, but his embarrassing run as the skipper will make it difficult for him to take the job again.
While more and more teams are looking for younger players as an option in the cash-rich league, CSK and RCB have turned out to be the only 2 teams who seemingly aren’t ready to let go of their old guards. 8 teams out of the 10 boast skippers who are below the mark or 35, and 6 teams have skippers who are at 30 or less (Kane Williamson, 31 & Rohit Sharma, 34).

Why is RCB persisting with 37-year-old Faf du Plessis as a captain?

8 out of 10 teams in IPL 2022 have captains below the age of 35. What works for RCB's Faf du Plessis and CSK's MS Dhoni?

Umran Malik's selection in the Indian T20 team against South Africa is currently the talk of the town and Virender Sehwag too, has joined in praising the 22-year-old speed sensation. Malik with his ability to regularly deliver bowls at around 150kmph forced the selection committee to pick him up for the upcoming 5-match home series which is set to begin on 9th June. Lauding him, the former Indian cricketer, Virender Sehwag said that the Sunrisers Hyderabad's cricketer is a special talent who can turn out to be an important asset to Team India. However, he warned the skipper KL Rahul, who will lead India in the SA series in absence of Rohit Sharma of using the youngster efficiently. 'He has to be used carefully by the Indian captain because if he is used too much in the powerplay, Umran may end up conceding a lot of runs, but if used efficiently, he will be an asset to the Team, said Sehwag.

With unpleasant weather conditions prevailing in Kolkata where the Qualifier 1 and Eliminator of IPL 2022 will take place, BCCI has issued new rules for this season's playoffs.
As per the new rules, if heavy rain plays a villain during any of the playoff games, a 5-over-a-side game would be played, if that is not feasible, a super over would determine the winner of the game. In unforeseen circumstances, if holding the super-overs also becomes difficult then the winner of the particular match will be decided on the basis of their league stage performances. These regulations will remain the same for the finals as well. However, a reserve day has been allocated if the finals are disrupted due to weather issues.
These new rules would mean, the better team will move ahead without having to play the particular match. For the first Qualifier and Eliminator that will be played between Gujarat and Rajasthan and Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore respectively, the better team will win without any contest if weather conditions do not allow the match to proceed.
This puts Royal Challengers Bangalore in a difficult situation as the team has qualified in the 4th spot in IPL. Hence, Faf du Plessis' side faces the fear of getting knocked out without any fair chance. Rajasthan Royals, however, will still get a chance in Qualifier 2, which will be held in Ahmedabad.

Punjab Kings had a horrendous season yet again, but their retained bowler, Arshdeep Singh turned out to be a hidden diamond who upskilled himself with every passing match this IPL season.
The Punjab-based cricketer started poorly in IPL 2022 but emerged as a death bowl specialist by the end of Punjab Kings’ IPL campaign in the 15th edition. Boasting an economy of 7.7, Arshdeep gradually became Mayank Agarwal’s go-to man in the death overs. His ability to deliver pin-point yorkers at will, not leak runs under pressure, and, most importantly, to stay calm came in handy for Punjab Kings in the most dangerous situations. In his 4-years of IPL experience, the 2018 U-19 World Cup-winning cricketer has collected 40 wickets in 37 matches, out of which he picked 10 in the 14 matches of IPL 2022.
His control over the game in the last overs caught the eye of the selectors who picked him for his first-ever T20 assignment against South Africa. The 23-year-old left-arm bowler who made his IPL debut in 2019 will now play alongside Harshal Patel, Umar Malik, and Avesh Khan in the national jersey.

On 3rd October, last year when Umran Malik made his IPL debut with Sunrisers Hyderabad, the 22-year-old clocked a sensational 150 kmph in his first-ever IPL over. Cut to May 2022, the impressive pace of the Jammu & Kashmir-based cricketer has earned him a much-anticipated spot in the Indian T20 team for the upcoming 5-match South Africa T20 series.
Umran Malik who makes 150kmph look like a piece of cake is only the 2nd Indian cricketer who will play from J&K after Parvez Rasool. The selection committee right away picked up the right-arm fast bowler whose hostile speed had made heads turn this year too. In the 15th edition, Malik’s 157 kmph delivery against Delhi Capitals made a splash as it made many believe that he could break Shoaib Akhtar & Brett Lee’s 160kmph record.
While in his debut season, the young speedster got 2 wickets in 3 games, this season, Malik, a son of a fruitseller, who was being trained under Dale Steyn picked a total of 22 wickets in 14 games. In all the 14 games he played for SRH who had retained him before the IPL 2022 mega auctions, the sensational bowler was awarded the ‘fastest delivery of the match’ this season. Malik though leaked runs, but his promising pace has the potential to upset any line-up in the world.

Written off by many critics after the mega auction, Gujarat Titans did the unthinkable as they marched into IPL 2022 Final after winning Qualifier 1 against the Rajasthan Royals. From Hardik Pandya's captaincy to different players coming out to take charge of the team, here are the 3 big reasons behind GT's success.
Cool-headed captaincy from Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya emerged as one of the best cool-headed captains this season. Hardik too became a backbone to the team at the number 4 batting position as he curbed his natural instinct of going hard and constructed his inning in a way that every other batter could bat around him.
Finishers rescued Titans on most occasions
Rahul Tewatia and David rescued their team during multiple close encounters in the league stages. Tewatia's two back-to-back sixes of Odean Smith easily define the Titans' never die approach. Rashid Khan was another player who had some extraordinary performances in finishing the game with the bat.
Pack of match-winning bowlers
Mohammed Shami along with Lockie Ferguson and Alzarri Joseph helped Gujarat put pressure on opposition openers and get rid of them early. Unlike the past seasons, Shami remained consistent with both new and old balls. Rashid Khan also justified his price tag and picked wickets and also kept the scoring rate in check.

As the IPL 2022 Tournament approaches its end, Lucknow Super Giants are set to lock horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore in the eliminator of the IPL 2022 on Wednesday. It will be the only chance for both teams to remain in the race for the IPL finals, whoever loses will be out of the completion, and the winner shall next play in the Qualifier 2 of IPL 2022.
After a dream start, Lucknow’s league stage ended at a bitter disappointment since they failed to have a top 2 finish due to a poor net run rate in comparison to Rajasthan. The new team has won 9 games out of 14 this season. For Lucknow, their skipper KL Rahul has been their biggest positive. With 537 runs, he is the second highest run-scorer in IPL 2022. With Quinton de Kock returning in his fiery form, Deepak Hooda performing consistently and an intimidating bowling unit consisting of Avesh Khan, mohsin Khan and Jason Holder, Lucknow Super Giants going into the eliminator have all their bases covered.
On the other hand, RCB has had a hot and cold season. The Faf du Plessis-led team has won 8 and lost 6 league games. Having a negative net run rate, the team qualified on the back of MI’s win against Delhi Capitals. However, Virat Kohli’s 73 in their last league game will bring a lot of confidence in the team. With an inform skipper and Dinesh Karthik’s skills providing strength to the lower middle order RCB’s batting looks sorted. Their bowling unit led by Wanindu Hasaranga who is also among the Top 2 wicket takers too could inspire fear among the LSG batters.
Head to Head:
Both teams that are vying for their maiden title have met once in this season and RCB dominated with a 18-run win.
