Tim David adds to RCB injury crisis ahead of IPL 2025
RCB announced a couple of changes to the Playing XI ahead of the LSG clash at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. Tim David suffered a hamstring injury in the last game, with Liam Livingstone coming in. The Bengaluru franchise also lost Lungi Ngidi to national duty, with the South African featuring in the WTC Final.
It adds to RCB’s woes ahead of the IPL 2025 playoffs. Captain Rajat Patidar is half fit, featuring only as an impact substitute since his finger injury. That meant Liam Livingstone got a recall to the XI, while Nuwan Thushara makes his debut for the franchise.
