Rajasthan Royals will look to end their run of three consecutive defeats as they host a nothing-to-lose Lucknow Super Giants side in Jaipur in Match 64 of IPL 2026. Sitting sixth on the points table with 12 points from 12 matches, RR need a comprehensive victory to keep their playoff hopes alive.Two wins will take RR to 16 points, which should be enough to secure a playoff spot outright as SRH beat CSK in Monday’s match and which left only one spot to grab for the playoffs. RR have also lost their last three home matches, piling further pressure on the side. Yashasvi Jaiswal’s dip in form, the lower middle order’s lack of runs, and their struggles with the ball in the Powerplay have all contributed to the slide.Although they are out of the playoffs contention, LSG have looked close to being at their dangerous best in recent matches. Mitchell Marsh’s imperious form has had a lot to do with that, with the Australian T20 captain posting scores of 111 off 56 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru and 90 off 38 against CSK. Their top order has finally clicked, and their already competitive bowling side with Prince Yadav leading the attack, has taken their returns up a couple of notches.
