Lucknow Super Giants will face Rajasthan Royals in the 32nd match of the IPL 2026 at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow on 22 April. Both sides are coming into this game off defeats and will be eager to return to winning ways. 

Lucknow Super Giants are having a difficult time. Having lost all their last three matches, they are now 9th on the table with four points. In their last game, they conceded 254 runs to Punjab Kings. They made 200 while chasing but lost the match. Rishabh Pant (43), Aiden Markram (42) were impressive but it was not enough. LSG will need better bowling and a stronger overall performance.


Rajasthan Royals started the season very well but have now lost two matches in a row. They are still in 3rd place with 8 points. They made 155 runs in their last game but could not defend it against Kolkata Knight Riders. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Vaibhav Suryavanshi started well, but the middle order collapsed. RR will look to bounce back and return to winning form.

LSG vs RR: Pitch Report

The pitch at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow gives a fair chance to both batters and bowlers. Early in the match, fast bowlers and spinners get some help from the surface. The average score is around 170-180. As the game goes on, batting becomes easier once players settle in. Medium pacers and off-spinners are likely to get good support from the pitch throughout the match.
