RR vs LSG
Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) meet for their fifth IPL clash. In their previous meeting at Sawai Mansingh Stadium on March 26, RR won by 20 runs with Sanju Samson hitting an unbeaten unbeaten 82 off 52 balls to help his side to victory.
Of their five head-to-head meetings between these teams, RR have won four matches compared to one victory by LSG; as reigning inaugural champions, RR are keen on improving upon an indifferent season 2016 campaign last year.
Rajasthan Royals will make an immediate statement when they face Chennai Super Kings at Sawai Mansingh Stadium for their opening match of IPL 2026 at Sawai Mansingh Stadium.
After stunning the world with their win of 2008 despite being considered underdogs, Rajasthan Royals have struggled to replicate that success since.
The Royals have made several adjustments to their squad in the 2026 mini-auction, hoping that these will help improve upon last season’s disappointing results. Rishabh Pant was named captain, hoping he can lead them all the way towards glory.
RR won the toss and chose to bat against LSG’s potency bowling attack. Jofra Archer made an immediate impact, striking early blows by dismissing Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran within powerplay;
Shimron Hetmyer was caught by Wanindu Hasaranga while Dhruv Jurel took an excellent juggling catch behind the stumps to take out Hetmyer for just 2.
Shimron Hetmyer was eventually dismissed after Dhruv Jurel took an amazing catch by Dhruv Jurel to remove him for 2.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi scored against Rajasthan Royals and hit an instant six off his opening delivery, becoming the youngest IPL debutant at 14 years and 237 days. Later he hit two sixes off Avesh Khan to take their score up to 122/2 by the sixth over.
In an exciting final over, everything came down to the last ball for Rajasthan Royals as it needed 25 runs off 19 deliveries but Hetmyer hit an off-cutting full toss straight to Shardul Thakur at backward square leg for just one run – Avesh then bowled two yorkers that helped RR achieve this victory by two wickets and move into fourth place on the table.
Rajasthan Royals will benefit greatly from Yuzvendra Chahal, who missed last season due to injury, returning. Chahal should add much-needed muscle to their batting line-up; without Jos Buttler on their bench he will help keep their middle order strong; other key men for them include Jofra Archer and Rahul Tripathi who both return after lengthy absences.
