What did POTM Marcus Stoinis say?

"Nice to get involved with the ball, had no real plans to get Jos out that way but I just used some cricketing smarts and bowled it short into the wicket. We identified this is a difficult wicket, so we realised we don't need a 50 off 20 balls on this surface. (On whether he will bowl more) You will have to ask the skipper that question, but fitness wise I'm ready to go. All good," Stoinis stated.

Winning captain KL Rahul reacts after the win:

"I got hit by one of the throws from my teammates, so clearly doing something wrong as captain. In the 10 over mark, the message me and Kyle sent out was 160 would be a good total on this track, they have some good bowlers as well who exploited the conditions. We fell 10 short but made up with the ball. And there was no dew so made it fair for both teams. We came in here yesterday and saw 180 would be a par score, but after the first over from Boult itself me and Kyle had a chat and realised this isn't a 180 wicket. The ball was keeping a bit low, so we gave ourselves time in the powerplay. Maybe if we played a bit better, we might have got 170 as well. I think that run-out from the impact player, and two wickets falling back to back gives the opposition a chance. We know with Rajasthan their strength is their top four, so we needed to have our plans in place to get them out," KL said.

Losing captain Sanju Samson reacts to the loss:

"Not that great (feeling) after a loss, but it's okay. We'd have loved to win the first game at Jaipur. We'll definitely take lessons and move on. With the batting line-up we have, it was a very chaseable score. But they bowled really well, used the conditions really well. (Conditions) Personally I was expecting something like this, bit of slow and low kind of wicket is what I expected and we got that. You need to play some smart cricket and we did that till the ninth over. Right after Jaiswal got out, it was a matter of getting that one big partnership. They bowled really well, whenever we tried to go hard at them, I think we lost wickets. 5 overs 50 in this kind of wicket is a bit tough with the way they were bowling. Even if you win or lose a game, you take lessons out of it, that's the beauty of this game. We'll be taking lot of lessons out of it. We did a reasonably good job to restrict them to 150. There are lots of lessons in the bowling side as well and in the batting also. We expect much better performance and we all know the standard of cricket we've been playing. We have to move forward and play some better cricket," Samson said.

Jurel should’ve came before Riyan Parag. And I think because of this decision Rajasthan Royals lost the game. #IPL #RRvLSG #IPL2023

JUREL GONE!

The youngster was an inch close to scoring a six but Hooda picks up an easy catch as mathematically, it's over for the home side.

Padikkal departs!

Avesh picks up his second wicket as Padikkal walks back to the pavilion scoring 26 runs off 21 deliveries. 14 needed off three as Dhruv Jurel joins Parag in the middle.

WHAT AN OVER!

19 required off just six deliveries. Did RR bottle it or LSG deserves the credit?

PARAGGGGGGGGGGGG!

Maximum from the youngster. RR need 20 runs off eight deliveries.

READY FOR A THRILLER?

Devdutt Padikkal fights back as RR need 29 runs off 12 deliveries. Who are you backing?

The Indian Premier League is all set to make its return to Jaipur after four long years as Rajasthan Royals are set to host Lucknow Super Giants on April 19 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium. Notably, the home side is on the top of the IPL Points Table with four wins in five matches while Lucknow are just behind them with three wins in five games. Thus, when these two sides finally meet, it is expected to be a cracking contest.

Coming to their performance so far, Lucknow’s Nicholas Pooran and KL Rahul are in good form at the moment. Bowlers are also on song and thus, the team will be confident of its chances. Rajasthan, on the other hand, have played some meticulous cricket so far. 

However, the number four position remains problematic. Neither Devudtt Padikkal nor Riyan Parag has been able to prove themselves and that is one area that the team needs to improve on immediately.

RR vs LSG Probable Playing XIs

Rajasthan Royals (RR):
Jos Buttler, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (c & wk), Devdutt Padikkal, Shimron Hetmyer, Dhruv Jurel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Trent Boult, Adam Zampa, Sandeep Sharma, Yuzvendra Chahal

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG):
KL Rahul (c), Kyle Mayers, Deepak Hooda, Marcus Stoinis, Krunal Pandya, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Ayush Badoni, Avesh Khan, Yudhvir Singh Charak, Mark Wood, Ravi Bishnoi
