Match Prediction

Rajasthan Royals ka saamna Lucknow Super Giants se hoga Ekana Cricket Stadium mein. RR ne season ki shuruaat chaar wins ke saath ki thi, lekin unhone apne last do matches haar gaye hain. LSG is game mein teen-match losing streak ke saath aa rahi hai. Dono teams IPL regular season mein apni recent form sudhaarne ki koshish karengi.

Toss & Conditions

The match will be played on a red-soil surface offering bounce and carry but drier than usual due to heat. LSG scored 141 and 164 batting first in two previous games here and lost both, indicating that higher totals are needed to compete.
