and Lucknow Super Giants ![\"\"](\"https:\/\/bcci-stats-sports-mechanic.s3.amazonaws.com\/matchcentre\/images\/commentary\/smiley\/LSG-text.png\" "\\"\\"")
! In IPL 2023, the Royals experienced a tough home ground scenario, securing victory in only one out of five matches at Jaipur. Despite these challenges, their batsmen lit up the powerplays, marking themselves as the most aggressive starters, a stark contrast to LSG's more measured approach, which ranked them among the slowest. Looking ahead to IPL 2024, both Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants maintain their squad cores without major overhauls. Royals' strategy revolves around the formidable Jos Buttler, while LSG will lean on KL Rahul's prowess, with Devdutt Padikkal potentially leading their charge as the opener. The spin duo of Ravi Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal for Rajasthan, and Naveen-ul-Haq with Ravi Bishnoi for Lucknow, are set to headline their respective bowling attacks. As we stand on the threshold of IPL 2024's fourth match at the iconic Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, the stage is set for an intriguing clash.<\/p>\n\n
<\/p>\n\n
vs Head to Head:-<\/p>\n\n
Both teams have clashed against each other thrice in the IPL and Rajasthan leads the tally with 2 victories and LSG have won one here at the same venue! Will it be Pink or Blue waves at the stadium?

Pitch Report:
\nSamuel Badree and Matthew Hayden:<\/strong> "Match number 4 of the Tata IPL brings us to Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. This venue has been historically a fortress for the Rajasthan. However, last year, they managed to win only one game out of five matches played here. The ground dimensions are 70m towards the left and 62m towards the right. The straight hit is 79m. The pitch looks dry and doesn't have a lot of grass on it. Spinners will play a big role here."

Sanju Samson, RR Captain: "We want to bat first today. Feels like a good batting wicket. We have a different combination today. It feels positive to be in Jaipur. Riyan Parag will be our number 4, Jos, Hetmeyer, Boult are playing. Powell could come in as an impact player." <\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n
KL Rahul, LSG Captain: "We wanted to bat first as well, but the wicket looks good. I'm happy to be back on the field after the injury. It makes me hungry and perform much better when you're back. Q de Kock, Pooran, Stoinis and Naveen-ul-Haq are our four overseas options. The focus is on this game for us at the moment."<\/span><\/p>\n","PostMatchCommentary":"Powerplay (1-6 Overs) :-<\/strong><\/p>\n\nRR- 54\/2 (9.0 rpo, 6x4, 2x6) <\/strong><\/span> <\/strong>|| LSG<\/span><\/strong>- 47\/3 (7.8 rpo, 4x4, 2x6)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\nMiddle Overs (7-15 Overs) :- <\/strong><\/p>\n\nRR - 89\/1 (9.9 rpo, 3x4, 6x6) <\/strong><\/span> <\/strong>|| LSG<\/span><\/strong>- 87\/1 (9.7 rpo, 4x4, 5x6)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\nDeath Overs (16-20 Overs) :- <\/strong><\/p>\n\nRR- 50\/1 (10.0 rpo, 1x4, 3x6) <\/strong><\/span>|| LSG<\/span><\/strong>- 39\/2 (7.8 rpo, 3x4, 1x6)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n
Rajasthan Royals kick off their IPL 2024 journey with a commanding 20-run victory, thanks to the clinical performances of Sandeep Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin during the crucial death overs. Earlier in the day, after electing to bat, RR's Buttler and Jaiswal provided a solid start, though quick dismissals followed. Riyan Parag then took charge, contributing a valuable 43 to the innings. The partnership between Samson and Parag laid the foundation for RR's substantial total. Samson's innings, coupled with Dhruv Jurel's quickfire cameo, propelled RR to 193\/4. On the LSG front, Naveen-ul-Haq emerged as the lead bowler, claiming two crucial wickets. LSG initially lost 3 wickets in the powerplay and was put on the backfoot. KL held one end and Hooda provided the acceleration! As the chase intensified, LSG found themselves in a crunch situation, needing 49 runs off the final 24 deliveries. It was Sharma's crucial over, culminating in Rahul's wicket, that tipped the scales. Despite Rahul's patient 58 and Pooran's more aggressive 64* off 41, their efforts fell short. Initially, RR seemed to lose grip after reducing LSG to a precarious position, but Sharma, with his 1 for 22 in three overs, was precisely what RR needed. Their tight bowling restricted LSG, sealing a pivotal win for the home side.<\/p>\n\n

Sanju Samson, RR Skipper and Player of the Match:<\/strong><\/span> "Always great to spend time in the middle and it becomes more special when you win the game. This time I've been given a different kind of role with a new combination we have. I've been playing IPL for 10 years and there has to be some experience coming in. I feel I need to spend more time and understand the conditions. Playing ODIs also helped me. It's all about understanding your strengths and weaknesses. I should give this trophy to him Sandeep. He has that in his eyes, in his body language that you can trust that guy."<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n
KL Rahul, LSG Skipper:<\/strong> "The target wasn't a lot but we made a few mistakes. Good to see Mohsin back bowling well. Naveen has been crucial for us. We need to learn from our mistakes and find ways to win games. Langer has bought a lot of calmness to the group. We enjoy having him around."<\/span><\/p>\n","MatchOrder":"","MatchDateTime":"2024-03-24 15:30:00","Innings1Overs":"20","Innings2Overs":"20","ProjectedScore":"173","2ndProjectedScore":"0","3rdProjectedScore":"0","RemainingBalls":null}]});
