Royal Challengers Bengaluru has been presently suffering from injury woes despite being in the top four. Josh Hazlewood has been a key player for the team, picking up timely wickets in the death overs. However, Hazlewood suffered from a shoulder injury and had been missing matches since their clash against Chennai Super Kings. Well, according to a report from Business Standard, Hazlewood is likely to feature in the match against Lucknow Super Giants. However, there has been no official statement made from Royal Challengers Bengaluru's side, nor any such particular recovery time stated for the bowler. Against CSK, it was the Proteas' Lungi Ngidi who replaced Hazlewood, and took three wickets. But with him coming back in the team, Ngidi might get benched again. Notably, in 2025 IPL, Hazlewood played 10 matches and took 18 wickets at an economy of 8.44.

In response, RCB has brought in Mayank Agarwal as his replacement, spending INR 1 crore to secure his services. Padikkal had a decent season, scoring 247 runs with two fifties, and played key roles in RCB's campaign so far. Even Virat Kohli acknowledged his impact on the team’s success. As RCB gears up to face Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Ekana Stadium on May 9, the stakes are high for both teams. LSG, currently seventh with five wins and six losses, are on the verge of elimination and must win to stay in contention. Meanwhile, RCB, led by Rajat Patidar, sits comfortably at the top of the table and needs just one more win to confirm their playoff spot in IPL 2025.
