RR vs LSG Live Score: Rajasthan Royals face a stiff challenge as they prepare to take on Lucknow Super Giants in their upcoming IPL clash, with uncertainty looming over skipper Sanju Samson’s availability. Samson, who suffered a side strain in the previous game, has undergone scans, and head coach Rahul Dravid said the team will wait for results before making a final decision. The Royals are on a three-match losing streak and currently sit at eighth place on the points table with just two wins from seven matches. Inconsistency has plagued RR throughout the season, both with bat and ball. While Yashasvi Jaiswal has found some rhythm with back-to-back fifties, the middle order — featuring Riyan Parag and Dhruv Jurel — has failed to contribute meaningfully. Nitish Rana has shown promise recently, but RR’s bowling, barring Sandeep Sharma and glimpses from Jofra Archer, lacks the penetration needed to contain strong opposition lineups. On the other hand, LSG enter the match in a stronger position, with four wins from seven outings. Nicholas Pooran and Mitchell Marsh have been in tremendous form, while Rishabh Pant finally struck a fifty in their last game. Injuries hit their bowling early in the season, but contributions from Avesh Khan and Shardul Thakur have helped steady the ship. The possible return of speedster Mayank Yadav, pending fitness clearance, could further strengthen their bowling unit.
