Top Captaincy Picks For RR vs LSG Prediction: We are at the halfway point of the IPL 2025 league stage. Match 36 will be played between two teams that have struggled with consistency. On Saturday evening, visitors Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will take on hosts Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the famous Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur.
Both RR and LSG have played seven matches each so far; LSG have won four, and RR have won only two. A loss for RR in this game will further push them to the brink. They are coming off a heartbreaking loss to Delhi Capitals in the Super Over, while LSG, too, suffered a defeat in their last match at the hands of CSK.
RR have dominated LSG in the IPL so far, with four wins and conceding only one loss.
Date: April 19, Saturday
Venue: Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur
Time: 7:30 PM IST / 2:00 PM GMT / 07:30 PM LOCAL
Rajasthan Royals are fretting over the fitness of their skipper, Sanju Samson, who retired hurt in their last game against DC.
Meanwhile, LSG are likely to get the boost in the form of speedster Mayank Yadav. Known for bowling at over 150 KPH, Mayank had joined the LSG camp a few days ago and will undergo a fitness test ahead of this match.
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (C & WK), Kumar Karttikeya, Riyan Parag, Shimron Hetmyer, Dhruv Jurel, Nitish Rana, Wanindu Hasaranga, Mahesh Ayekshana, Jofra Archer, Sandeep Sharma, Tushar deshpande
Aiden Markram, Mitchell Marsh, Ayush Badoni, Rishabh Pant (C & WK), Nicholas Pooran, David Miller, Abdul Samad, Mayank Yadav, Avesh Khan, Akash Deep, Ravi Bishnoi, Digvesh Singh Singh Rathi
The Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur is known for its balanced conditions: although the pitch is good for playing strokes, it offers some grip and turn for spinners, while pacers who dig the ball into the surface can be effective as well. Chasing will be a wiser choice here.
The top captaincy picks in the RR vs LSG match will be Yashasvi Jaiswal, Mitchell Marsh, and Nicholas Pooran.
The 3 players to watch out for in Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, and Ravi Bishnoi.
For the RR vs LSG prediction, we predict that LSG will defeat RR in Match 36 of the IPL 2025.
