IPL returns at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur Pitch Report, Playing 11, Samson Vs Kl Rahul

The 26th Match of the Indian Premier League(IPL) 2023, will be played between Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur on 19th April. So Rajasthan Royals will take on Lucknow Super Giants at their home in the pink city of Jaipur. Rajasthan Royals won their previous match in an amazing way as on bowling first conceded 177 runs and when coming to bat their score was 55-4 in 10 overs but then their Captain Sanju Samson played a attacking knock of 60 runs but it was not sufficient because when he got out the team was in trouble but then came in Shimron Hetmyer 56 runs innings to seal the match for the Royals. On the other hand Lucknow Super Giants lost their previous match as on batting first scored just 159 runs, Kl Rahul was good at the top scoring 74 runs and the next highest scorer was Kyle Mayers with 29 runs but apart from the openers middle order failed very badly. While defending the target bowlers tried their best especially Ravi Bishnoi who was bowling in death overs and also took 2 wickets.  Lucknow bowling has not been good this season there is over dependence on Mark Wood they need to perform as a group to win Matches.
