Jaipur, May 18: In the 64th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, Rajasthan Royals (RR) will face off against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). RR is determined to secure a win to stay in contention for the playoffs. The match will take place at Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Tuesday.
Rajasthan Royals are returning to their home ground after a challenging away trip in Delhi. Currently, they hold the sixth position on the points table with six wins and six losses out of twelve matches. They suffered a defeat against Delhi Capitals in a high-scoring thriller on Sunday, marking their third consecutive loss and increasing pressure on the team.
Now, Rajasthan Royals will strive to remain in the playoff race and avoid slipping further down the points table. The Royals are eager to return to winning ways at home and break their losing streak at this crucial juncture of the season.
On the other hand, Lucknow Super Giants are coming off a remarkable victory against Chennai Super Kings. This win has showcased their growing momentum at a critical point in the season. Under the captaincy of Rishabh Pant, LSG sees this match as an excellent opportunity to maintain their recent form and avenge their earlier loss to Rajasthan.
A win would not only help LSG sustain their momentum but also improve their standing on the points table. Currently, Lucknow Super Giants are in tenth place, having lost eight out of twelve matches. Although they are out of the playoff race, they aim to enhance their position in the standings.
