LSG vs RR Team Previews
Lucknow Super Giants
Lucknow have bounced back from back-to-back defeats to the Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders with consecutive victories over the Chennai Super Kings. Beating the five-time IPL champions twice in a row has really inspired confidence for the rest of the Super Giants' IPL campaign.
KL Rahul and Nicholas Pooran are Lucknow's leading run-scorers this IPL season. Rahul has collected 302 runs in eight innings at the top of the order. Pooran has gathered in 280 in eight in the middle. Quinton de Kock has also weighed in with several important contributions. And don't forget about Marcus Stoinis after his record-breaking century against CSK recently.
Bowling-wise, the Super Giants have relied a lot on Yash Thakur. The fast bowler has taken nine wickets this IPL season. Ravi Bishnoi has impressed en route to five wickets, too. He is arguably one of the best leg-spinners at the tournament - and could be key in this fixture as well.
Lucknow Super Giants Playing 11
Quinton de Kock, Lokesh Rahul, Marcus Stoinis, Deepak Hooda, Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, Matt Henry, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohsin Khan, Yash Thakur.
Rajasthan Royals
Rajasthan are strong title contenders. They have only lost one match in the 2024 IPL so far. Perhaps this is the year they will repeat their title success of 2008. Recent consecutive wins over the Punjab Kings, Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians have shown the Royals, indeed, have what it takes this time.
Sanju Samson and Jos Buttler have been characteristically solid for the Rajasthan Royals again. Both are striking at around 150 runs per 100 balls, providing plenty of impetus for the rest to follow. Riyan Parag and others have duly obliged with some outstanding late-order finishing.
If Bishnoi is one of the best leg-spinners in the tournament, Chahal is possibly the very best. He has taken 13 wickets for Rajasthan this IPL season. He is pushing for a berth in India's squad for the T20 World Cup in the Caribbean and United States of America later this year.
Rajasthan Royals Playing 11
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson, Rovman Powell, Shimron Hetmyer, Dhruv Jurel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Trent Boult, Avesh Khan, Sandeep Sharma, YS Chahal.

Bonus Cricket Bets
Bet on the home side to win the toss. They have a 50 percent chance of doing this. If Lucknow do win the toss, they will probably choose to bat first.
Rahul's focus and concentration looks renewed. He has remained consistent and, importantly, increased his scoring rate. He has scored less than 20 in only two of his last eight IPL innings.
At just 23 years old, Bishnoi has a bright cricketing future ahead of him. He has been in good form for the Super Giants. He knows how to bowl well in Lucknow.
Chahal has taken at least one wicket in each of his eight appearances this IPL season. Four of those have brought two or more wickets.
Buttler is a commanding force at the top of the Royals' batting order. He has his two centuries this IPL season. He could be in for a third here. Anticipate another big performance from the England star.
