RR vs LSG Team Previews

Rajasthan Royals

The Rajasthan Royals had an emphatic start to this campaign, but their form has sputtered over the last few weeks. The team has suffered six losses in the last eight outings and has slipped down to the sixth place on the points table. With seven teams vying for three spots in the playoffs, Rajasthan needs to win each of its remaining two matches, including this one.

While the Rajasthan Royals’ top order has performed well, the batting from the middle order remains a concern. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi continues to be the team’s leading run-scorer and will look to give RR a good start as he joins Yashasvi Jaiswal at the top of the order.

Dhruv Jurel has scored four half-centuries in 12 innings and remains a vital cog in the batting line-up. However, the batting from Riyan Parag, Dasun Shanaka, Donovan Ferreira, and Shubham Dubey has been rather inconsistent.

Coming to the bowling, Jofra Archer has bowled well throughout the tournament and has picked up 17 wickets. He will be joined by Brijesh Sharma and Adam Milne in the pace department. However, the prolonged absence of Ravi Bishnoi from the playing XI has weakened the spin department, as Yash Raj Punja hasn’t been as effective.

Rajasthan Royals Expected Playing 11

Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Dhruv Jurel (WK), Riyan Parag (C), Ravi Singh, Donovan Ferreira, Dasun Shanaka, Jofra Archer, Adam Milne, Brijesh Sharma, Yash Raj Punja

Impact Player: Shubham Dubey / Ravi Bishnoi

Lucknow Super Giants

The Lucknow Super Giants have no chance of qualifying for the playoffs, but they will look to make the most out of the remaining games as they look to end the season on a high.

Mitchell Marsh played a brilliant knock on Friday as he scored 90 runs off just 38 balls to help his team secure a memorable victory against CSK. Marsh is the leading run-scorer for LSG this season and will open the batting alongside Josh Inglis.

Nicholas Pooran’s form has improved over the last few weeks, and he remains an important part of the middle order along with Rishabh Pant and Aiden Markram. However, the form of Himmat Singh, Abdul Samad, and Mukul Choudhary remains a concern.

Akash Singh, who was playing his first match of the season on Friday, picked up three wickets and will continue to feature in the seam department alongside Prince Yadav, Mohammed Shami, and Mayank Yadav.

Digvesh Rathi has struggled to perform in the spin department, managing to pick up only 5 wickets in eight games.

Lucknow Super Giants Expected Playing 11

Mitchell Marsh, Josh Inglis, Rishabh Pant (C & WK), Nicholas Pooran, Mukul Choudhary, Abdul Samad, Mohammed Shami, Mayank Yadav, Akash Singh, Prince Yadav, Aiden Markram

Impact Player: Shahbaz Ahmed / Himmat Singh

RR vs LSG Toss Prediction

In four of the last five matches played here, the team winning the toss opted to field first. We expect that trend to continue.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

The pitch at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium is usually rock hard and offers excellent bounce and pace. There is an even covering of grass, and the ball comes nicely onto the bat. The average first-inning score here since IPL 2025 is around 205, and we can expect another high-scoring game.

There are a few bare patches, and the slower bowlers can expect some grip and turn if they pitch the ball in the right areas. The weather is expected to remain hot and dry, with temperatures over 35 degrees.

RR vs LSG : Who Will Win?

We are backing the Rajasthan Royals to win this match. While not in the best form over the last couple of weeks, we expect them to bounce back here. Their batting is strong and the bowling has the ability to pick up early wickets. RR matches up quite well to LSG, in our opinion.

Bet on Rajasthan Royals to win.
