Royal Challengers Bangalore are set to confront Lucknow Super Giants in the 43rd match of IPL 2023 on Monday. A significant update regarding the RCB team has surfaced prior to the game. 

Kedar Jadhav will take the place of England’s star all-rounder David Willey for the remainder of the season

Jadhav has been packed away by RCB for Rs 1 crore. He made his IPL debut with Delhi Thrill seekers in 2010, he has so far played 93 IPL games and scored 1196 runs. Jadhav was acquired by Chennai Super Kings after playing 17 games for RCB in the 2016-17 season. Jadhav addressed Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2021 version of the competition. He stayed unsold in the barterings for the next two seasons.

Then again, Willey played four counterparts for RCB this season and scalped three wickets. Willey’s absence from the remaining matches has not been explained. Willey was picked by RCB in the 2022 uber closeout for Rs 2 crore.

 RCB has won two of the three IPL matches played by both teams so far, while LSG has only won one. LSG stole the victory from RCB in the previous game. RCB will need to quickly return and dominate the following match.
