Rajasthan Royals (RR) will look to stop a losing streak when they host Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in their second home match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Saturday (April 19).
Sanju Samson-led RR head into the match on the back of a Super Over loss against Delhi Capitals in New Delhi, where the Royals faltered in the late overs during their run chase of 189 before going down in the one-over eliminator to suffer their fifth defeat this season.

Rishabh Pant’s LSG, on the other hand, saw their three-match winning run come to an halt against Chennai Super Kings in Lucknow, where the home team failed in their defence of 166 to lose their third match of the ongoing season.
Both teams led by Team India wicketkeepers will now look to get the better of each other and get back to the win column when they clash for the sixth time in IPL and the third time in Jaipur. Here is a look at the RR vs GT head to head numbers ahead of IPL 2025 match 36:
