Team Preview of Lucknow Super Giants and Rajasthan Royals
Lucknow Super Giants won back-to-back matches against the Chennai Super Kings in their last two matches, and the last win was special because they defeated CSK in Chennai, which is a big thing in IPL as CSK is the king of their home ground. But LSG came on top just because of an amazing inning by Marcus Stoinis, who scored 124 runs, not out at a strike rate of 196.83.
LSG started well in the match, picking up the first wicket of CSK on just 4 runs, but then Ruturaj Gaikwad performed quite well, leading his side and scoring his second century of the IPL. Shivam Dube also played an amazing 66 runs inning in just 27 balls, hitting 7 sixes, and with the strike rate of 244, clearly giving an advantage to CSK to set up a total of 210.
In these competitions, there are plenty of better opening batters better than me so I’ll leave it to them. It’s not just go go go, there were some bowlers we wanted to target and some bowlers we wanted to be more cautious against. There was a phase where I wasn’t able to hit the boundaries so it was great Pooran could come in and take the pressure off. Lots of ebbs and flows, just tried to keep it in control. You’re planning and structuring, you’re not liking certain bowlers and you’re liking others more. I do think T20 cricket is changing, the scores that have been scored, the impact player role and how teams are taking on the bowlers.
Marcus Stoinis | Player of the Match
Rajasthan Royals is the best team right now in the IPL Season 2024, and they will be willing to take on LSG once again, which they did in their first match when they defeated them by 20 runs. In that match, Sanju Samson was the player of the match. He scored 82, and every team player contributed well, but now the RR is looking for a more settled team after opponents scored a century.

Lucknow’s pitch at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium is balanced and the least used one. It will be good for the batters in the first few matches, and after that, it will slow down because the crack will come in the next match.
Looks a little bit drier than what we have seen here in the past. There are a couple of bare spots, but I don’t think that will play too much of an issue. I expect it to hold a little bit more than anything else. It looks very Wankhede-like looking at that surface. Just being inland, there won’t be as much spin. The soil doesn’t compact together quite as tight, being quite central in the country.
I expect it to play really well. The new ball, like always, will be absolutely crucial. The ability to find wickets in the powerplay will be of paramount importance on this surface. I think it’ll be a really good wicket for cricket. Expect the bowlers to pitch it up a little bit more, see if they can get any movement off this fine green grass early on
