IPL 2023- Rajasthan Royals vs Lucknow Super Giants (RR vs LSG) – Dream11 Team prediction & Match Preview | Match 26

Match Preview

Rajasthan Royals will play host to Lucknow Super Giants at the Sawai Mansingh Indoor Stadium, Jaipur for Match no 26 of the Indian Premier League 2023. This may well be again a table topper match.

Rajasthan Royals are the current table topper having played 5 games, won 4 and lost 1. They are with 8 points

Lucknow Super Giants are currently in 2^nd position having played 5 games, won 3 and lost 2 . They are with 6 points.

Rajasthan Royals

Rajasthan Royals pulled off a stunning chase over the defending champion, Gujarat Titans even after a mini top order batting collapse. In their last game played against each other, Rajasthan Royals and Gujarat Titans were eyeing for the top of the table clash and it turned out to be a great game. With the win against Gujarat Titans, Rajasthan Royals now have got their revenge for the last year’s final loss. Rajasthan Royals captain, Sanju Samson and batter Shimron Hetmyer put in an exceptional performance to help Rajasthan Royals pull off a brilliant win, that now solidifies their position at the top of the league table.

Rajasthan Royals will be called the giant killers if they can beat Lucknow Super Giants too.
With form on their side both with bat and ball, Rajasthan Royals will be a team to beat and fans have already started seeing them amongst the top 4 teams in the playoffs.

Lucknow Super Giants

Lucknow Super Giants has been very consistent and like Rajasthan Royals have been winning all their games with relative ease. But the team had a hiccup in the last game against Punjab Kings as cameos from Sikandar Raza and Shahrukh Khan helped Punjab chase the Lucknow Super Giants total to inflict the second loss of the season for Lucknow Super Giants. Apart from this game, Lucknow Super Giants lost their game against Chennai while chasing 218 targets. Lucknow Super Giants would be disappointed with their last batting outing as except for skipper KL Rahul and Mayers none of the Lucknow Super Giants players were able to be on top of the game.
Lucknow Super Giants will be hoping to have a better game against the red-hot Rajasthan Royals who is currently looking ominous. Lucknow Super Giants and KL Rahul will hope to have their international player especially Marcus Stoinis in form as he along with Nicholas Pooran holds the key for Lucknow Super Giants in the middle overs.
There is not much of a worry on the bowling front as the Lucknow Super Giants team bowling looks to be in good shape. Marcus Stoinis is yet to bowl in the tournament and currently involved only as a last over batsman. If not injured, KL Rahul should try out Marcus Stoinis in the middle overs. This can have a positive change in his batting form too.
Jaipur crowd will be witnessing a good game of cricket and we hope dew does not play spoil sport. In case dew falls, batting second will be a guaranteed win.
