IPL 2024: RR vs LSG Live Score: With a dominating victory at home, the Rajasthan Royals kick off the new IPL season; Avesh Khan successfully defends 25 runs in the final over.
Lucknow Super Giants vs. Rajasthan Royals and RR vs. LSG Real-time score: The early departures of their top-order batsmen in quick succession left the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) with a depressing start to their chase. Trent Boult’s skillful bowling demonstrated its strength as he took the vital wickets of Quinton de Kock and Devdutt Padikkal, undermining LSG’s early lead. Burger’s dismissal of Badoni compounded the loss and increased the strain on the Lucknow team in the power-play period.
The responsibility fell mostly on the experienced shoulders of LSG captain KL Rahul due to the loss of important wickets. And he did not let us down. Rahul amassed 58 runs from 44 deliveries. For a while, the hopes of the visitors were sustained by Nicholas Pooran in the center. However, RR ultimately outperformed LSG by 20 runs and won the match. In the final over, Avesh Khan successfully defended 25 runs. Pooran’s valiant inning was for nothing.
RR vs LSG: Rajasthan Royals Innings
Earlier in the day, we saw Sanju Samson timing the ball well as Rajasthan Royals posted a good score on the board at Tata IPL 2024 match number 4 at Sawai Mansingh Stadium. Samson won the toss and opted to bat against Lucknow Super Giants. After Jos Buttler and Yashaswi Jaiswal fell early, it was skipper Samson’s responsibility to avoid any batting collapse. Along with him, young Riyan Parag was giving an able partnership. Their gritty third-wicket partnership got Rajasthan back in the game. Just when Parag was getting charged up, Naveen-ul-Haq removed him at 43. Parag had survived earlier when Mohsin Khan dropped his catch.
