LSG vs RR: Rajasthan Royals had scored 159 runs
In this match (LSG vs RR), Rishabh Pant had invited Rajasthan Royals to bat first. Rajasthan did not have a good start and their batting order faltered. The team had lost 3 wickets for 32 runs and 5 wickets for 77 runs. However, Ravindra Jadeja played an important inning of 43 runs. Apart from this, he played useful partnerships with Ferreira and Shubham Dubey, due to which Rajasthan Royals scored 159 runs at the loss of 6 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs.
LSG vs RR: Lucknow Super Giants slip in run chase
Lucknow Super Giants, which set out to chase this target, also did not have a good start. The team lost wickets at regular intervals and apart from Mitchell Marsh, no batsman could stay on the crease. Marsh definitely scored a brilliant half-century, but he did not get support from any batsman from the other end. For this reason the contest gradually slipped out of Lucknow’s hands. Jofra Archer bowled brilliantly for Rajasthan Royals, while Nandre Berger and Brijesh Sharma took 2-2 wickets. The entire team of Lucknow Super Giants was limited to 119 runs and lost the match.
