Lucknow Super Giants vs Rajasthan Royals IPL Match Today: KL Rahul-led Lucknow Super Giants will lock horns against high-flying Sanju Samson’s Rajasthan Royals in match no 44 of the Indian Premier League at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.
Former champions RR have looked in ominous form this season with seven wins from eight games, and they could be a tough nut to crack for LSG. LSG, meanwhile, too have played some good cricket and are placed fourth with five wins from eight games.

Impact Sub: Yash Thakur.
Lucknow Super Giants player to look out for: Marcus Stoinis played one of the best knocks in this IPL, remaining unbeaten on 124 off 63 balls to hand LSG a six-wicket win. Stoinis’ return to form augurs well for LSG middle-order, where the likes of Devdutt Padikkal, Nicholas Pooran and Deepak Hooda need to take up more responsibility.

Rajasthan Royals player to watch out for: The return to form of Yashasvi Jaiswal, who was struggling a bit this season, has further strengthened RR’s batting. While chasing a 180-run target in the last game against Mumbai Indians, Jaiswal smashed an unbeaten 104 off 60 balls to power his side to a comfortable nine-wicket win.
