Rajasthan Royals currently find themselves in the lower half of the table, sitting in eighth place with just two wins and five losses from their seven outings. Their most recent match ended in a narrow loss to the Delhi Capitals via Super Over, a match they came heartbreakingly close to winning but couldn’t chase nine runs in the final over. With their playoff hopes hanging in the balance, RR will be eager to return to winning ways.

 

Meanwhile, Lucknow Super Giants are in a relatively stronger position, holding fifth place on the table with four wins and three losses. They were defeated by Chennai Super Kings in their previous encounter, losing by five wickets. LSG will be looking to get back on track and solidify their position in the top half of the standings.  ALSO READ: RR vs LSG - Jaipur Stadium stats | Full scorecard | Live streaming
