Lucknow Super Giants vs Rajasthan RoyalsTeam Preview & Squads
Lucknow Super Giants
KL Rahul’s team will enter this game with confidence. They have defeated the Chennai Super Kings, the reigning champions, in back-to-back games. In the previous game, the team won by six wickets after chasing down a large score. The batting order appears solid, but the Rajasthan Royals have a potent batting lineup, so Rahul will need his bowlers to put on a strong display.
This season, KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock have performed admirably as the opening duo, and they need to get off to a strong start. After scoring the game-winning hundred the previous time, Marcus Stoinis should feel confident going into this one. He will try to add runs in the middle order with Nicolas Pooran and Devdutt Padikkal. Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, and Deepak Hooda round out this team’s potent batting order.
The team’s chances of winning will depend on how well Matt Henry and Mohsin Khan bowl the new ball given the formidable batting lineup they face. To put pressure on the RR hitters, Ravi Bishnoi and Pandya need to take advantage of the track’s slowness. Marcus Stoinis in the supporting role and Yash Thakur in the main role will also need to deliver a strong performance.

Rajasthan Royals
This year, Sanju Samson’s club has been the one to beat. Their outstanding batting performances have allowed them to destroy opponents. The team easily leads the points table after defeating the Mumbai Indians by nine wickets in their most recent match. Samson wants his side to keep up the demolition job in this game since they are just one victory away from a spot in the next round.
Yashasvi Jaiswal, who scored an incredible century in the previous game, is hoping to start out strong with Jos Buttler, his form partner. In good condition and positioned in the middle order, Samson and Riyan Parag would like to develop partnerships with Dhruv Jurel. This batting lineup is strengthened by the addition of firepower from Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, and Ravichandran Ashwin.
In this match, the bowling unit will be up against strong hitters, and they anticipate Trent Boult and Sandeep Sharma to make some big runs off the new ball. With their combined wealth of experience, Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal should do well in the middle overs. This bowling attack is made more varied by Avesh Khan and Parag.
