IPL 2022 | Rajasthan Royals vs Lucknow Super Giants Highlights: Chahal and 'Hit'myer help Royals prevail over Super GiantsAfter a sensational end from Shimron Hetmyer in the first innings and some swinging deliveries from Trent Boult in the first over. The LSG never really recovered after that. LSG missed quite a few tricks with their batting order failing to fire when needed. Ravichandran Ashwin with his tight bowling added pressure and it was Yuzvendra Chahal with his loopy leg breaks that bamboozled LSG batters and Kuldeep Sen's sensational last over helped Rajasthan Royals cross the line against Lucknow Supergiants.

LSG, RR face off in blockbuster clash

If their performance is any indication, Lucknow Super Giants and Rajasthan Royals could make for a blockbuster Indian Premier League contest on a Sunday evening, an iconic venue adding to its charm.

IPL debutants Lucknow Super Giants got off to an excellent start in their first season and are placed third in the points table, having won three of their four matches.

KL Rahul's team lost its opening game narrowly to fellow first-timers Gujarat Titans, but have since recorded comprehensive wins over defending champions Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad and a very formidable Delhi Capitals outfit.

While Rahul has led the side admirably in the matches played so far in the 15th edition of the lucrative league, the likes of Evin Lewis, Deepak Hooda and young Ayush Badoni shining with the bat has lent great balance and stability to the team.
