Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the 70th and the final group stage match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. After bowing out of the playoffs race, LSG delivered a splendid performance against Gujarat Titans (GT) away from home, and they would like to play quite similarly to that, to end their IPL 2025 campaign on a high.
On the other side, RCB, who have already made it through to the playoffs, have a genuine chance to finish in the top two with a win over LSG, which will give them two cracks at making the IPL 2025 final. Let’s have a look at fantasy cricket tips, pitch report, probable XIs, captain, vice captain and more ahead of the LSG versus RCB IPL 2025 70th match.

RCB’s Last Five Matches: Performance

Mitchell Marsh: Mitchell Marsh has hit a purple patch in the IPL 2025 season, managing to score a lot of fifties, to set up big totals for LSG on a regular basis, especially in recent matches.
Aiden Markram: Aiden Markram has turned a corner with the bat in the IPL this season, and his bowling has come good at times for LSG as well.
Phil Salt: Phil Salt made his return from illness and injury in style with a swashbuckling fifty in the previous match for RCB in the IPL 2025.
Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli has been ever-consistent in the IPL for years and years, and he has managed to find himself in the orange cap race in the current season too.

Shahbaz Ahmed: Shahbaz Ahmed did reasonably with the ball in his recent outing for LSG after quite some time, but he can be a player to avoid in the fantasy team due to less expectation of doing something big in the upcoming IPL match.
Mayank Agarwal: Mayank Agarwal got his first go in the IPL 2025 in RCB colours as a replacement player, but with not much game time under his belt, he might not be able to impact the next fixture in a massive way.
