IPL 2023 Today’s Match Live Updates, RR vs LSG: For the first time this season, Rajasthan Royals will play host to a team at their home. They have been traveling a lot, have held a couple of matches at their ‘second home’ in Gwalior but nearly three weeks after the start of IPL 2023, will be playing in Jaipur, their designated base. RR have emerged as the team to beat this season having won four of their five matches for eight points and top spot on the table. They will welcome Lucknow Super Giants, a team that is second in the standings with three wins from five attempts.
RR’s campaign has been driven by the form of their openers Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal with the pair consistently giving their team a solid start. However, when both exited early against Chennai Super Kings, captain Sanju Samson and finisher Shimron Hetmyer stepped up and took them over the line. With two quality spinners in Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal, they have managed to put brakes on the scoring rate in the middle overs while Sandeep Sharma has also been using his IPL experience well.
LSG have a superb line-up. The quality of their squad can be gauged from the fact that Quinton de Kock is yet to get a game. However, the franchise would want to address their batting approach in the middle overs something which they should be addressing.
