RR vs LSG Highlights, IPL 2026: Jofra Archer, Nandre Burger, Brijesh Sharma power Rajasthan Royals to 40-run victory

LSG are bowled out for a paltry 119 runs in 18 overs. Baring MItchell Marsh's 55, Nicholas Pooran (22) and Himmat Singh, none of the LSG batter reaches double digits. For Rajasthan Royals, Jofra Archer picked three while Nandre Burger and Brijesh Sharma took two wickets apiece.

What a start by Rajasthan Royals in the second innings. LSG have already lost three batters, all for ducks. While Ayush Badoni was run out in the first over, Nandre Burger and Jofra Archer counted for Rishabh Pant and Aiden Markram respectively. LSG 22/3 (4)

Lucknow Super Giants restricted Rajasthan Royals to 159 for six in their IPL match here on Wednesday. Ravindra Jadeja top-scored for Rajasthan with 43 not out off 29 balls. For LSG, Mohammed Shami, Prince Yadav and Mohsin Khan took two wickets apiece.

Two more wickets for LSG as Rajasthan Royals slide further. While Prince Yadav gets better of Riyan Parag, Moshin Khan dimisses dangerous Shimron Hetmyer for his second of the night. RR 80/5 (11)

Rajasthan Royals are in tatters. After Yashasvi Jaiswal and Dhruv Jurel perished in the last over, Mohsin Khan gets better of Vaibhav Suryavanshi. The youngster goes for a big shot, gets a top edge only for Digvesh Rathi to take a brilliant running catch. Wicket maiden for Mohsin. RR 32/3 (4)

OUTTTT!!!! What a catch by Rishabh Pant to get rid of Yashasvi Jaiswal. Mohammed Shami bangs short. Jaiswal goes for a pull, get a faint edge only for Pant to jump at the right time to take a one-handed catch. Jaiswal walks back for 22. OUTTTT!!! What a beauty from Shami in the next ball. Dhruv Jurel can't do anything about it as the ball pitches on the middle and outswings with an edge to Pant again. RR 32/2 (3)

Rishabh Pant: We're looking to bowl first, you know. We have been playing in this condition. Still figuring what's best but, the way our team is, we want to put our opposition under pressure when they bat first. (On the conditions in Lucknow) When you look at last few matches, it's been challenging, but at the same time, as a team, we love that challenge. We're going to figure out a way, how we play on our home soil and not looking as a disadvantage. As a player, you're going to find the way. (Rejig after losing three matches?) I think mostly a little bit changes, just a subtle change because you don't want massive change because you want to still keep the stability in the team. Just two changes from bowling side, Rathi comes in for us in place of Sid and Mayank comes in for Avesh. (On Pooran) It's a bit challenging, but at the same time, a player who has shown so much potential in the top stage, you want to trust him regardless of whatever he's doing. When you talk about him, he's really important for our team. And that was the love and care is all about towards Nicholas Pooran.

Riyan Parag: I actually told my boys I was going to try and lose the toss because I was very confused. And I did that pretty well. So I'm happy with either bowling or batting. I feel batting first, we played a few domestic games here and it slowed down a little on the later half. So hopefully we get a start back. I think we batted pretty well. Even last game against Kolkata, I think we made a few miscalculations in the middle overs. But I feel the way Jaiswal and Vaibhav batted with the wickets that they had, I think that was brilliant. Like I said, a few errors here and there. The message is that we need to play 40 overs of good cricket. Only then can we expect a win. Hopefully do that tonight. Same team.

LSG's Rishabh Pant and RR's Riyan Parag walk out in the middle for the coin toss. Both the individuals are having some intense chat before the toss. Rishabh wins toss and opt to bowl.

Both teams are coming in after at least two losses. While RR lost two, LSG are coming after three defeats. One team will today return to winning ways.

Hello and welcome to the Match 32 of IPL 2026 between Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Gaints.
