Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) collide in match 44 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Saturday, April 27.

Lucknow are placed at No. 4 on the points table with five wins and three losses from eight matches. Meanwhile, Rajasthan have been rampant and have kept a stranglehold on the pole position, having won seven and lost just one out of their eight games.

The Super Giants are coming into this clash on the back of consecutive wins against defending champions Chennai Super Kings. In the most recent encounter, KL Rahul and Co. chased down a 211-run target with six wickets and three balls to spare on the back of Marcus Stoinis’ phenomenal century.

Rajasthan, on the other hand, have won their last three fixtures, the most recent one being against Mumbai Indians in Jaipur. Yashasvi Jaiswal’s breathtaking century helped the first-ever IPL champions to chase down a 180-run target with nine wickets and eight balls to spare.

LSG vs RR Match Details:

Pitch Report:

Four games have been played so far at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow in IPL 2024. The average first innings total has been 176. The pitches have been much better than what they were last year. Chasing teams and teams batting first have won two games each. Last year, teams preferred batting first at this venue as the pitches slowed down considerably in the second innings. However, this year, the pitches have stayed relatively consistent throughout the 40 overs and that will give teams the option to bat second if they feel it is their stronger suit.

LSG vs RR Head-to-Head Record

LSG vs RR Probable Playing XIs:

Lucknow Super Giants:

Quinton de Kock, KL Rahul (c & wk), Marcus Stoinis, Deepak Hooda, Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, Matt Henry, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohsin Khan, Yash Thakur

Probable Best Players of the Match

Probable Best Batter:

Yashasvi Jaiswal had been having a dismal run in IPL 2024 but that ended in the last game, as he slammed an unbeaten 104 off 60 balls in the last game against Mumbai in Jaipur, belting nine fours and seven sixes. In his young competitive cricket career, the southpaw has shown the ability to scores a lot of runs when he is in form and is high on confidence. His remarkable knock against Mumbai must have boosted his morale and there is a good chance of him continuing from where he left when he steps out to face LSG.

Probable Best Bowler:

Yuzvendra Chahal will enjoy bowling on the Ekana surface. The pitch might not have been as favourable for the spinners as it was last year but there is enough in it to keep them interested. Chahal has been in prolific form, having picked up 13 wickets from eight games at an average of 20.38. His four overs will be key for the Royals.
