If this game actually happens, the stakes would be high and verbal duels could be the order of the day. LSG, who have 15 points, could secure top two if they beat KKR on Saturday evening. If that happens, the LSG vs RCB eliminator will not happen. In that case, LSG will face GT in Qualifier 1. But again, if CSK win their last game against DC, they occupy the second place and will play GT, and LSG will remain at 3.
The rivalry started at the Chinnaswamy when Lucknow beat RCB in a closely contested game. The game went down to the last ball. After the win, Gambhir made a gesture towards the Bangalore crowd and this did not go down well with Kohli. After a few days the two teams met again – this time in Lucknow. RCB ruled the roost and Kohli was high on emotion as he got into a banter with Naveen-ul-Haq. Later, after the match, Gambhir got into an heated altercation with Kohli.
