The 63rd match of IPL 2022 between Lucknow Super Giants and Rajasthan Royals will be played on Sunday, 15 May 2022 at The Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune. The match will start at 07:30 PM local time.

We have no doubt that LSG is a strong team and they had been good throughout IPL 2022 but the batting order of Lucknow destroyed the efforts made by the bowling department. The bowlers of LSG were just superb in the previous match against Gujarat and leaked just 144 runs in 20 overs. Mohsin Khan, Chameera, Avesh Khan, Krunal Pandya, and Jason Holder are the star bowlers of LSG and these all bowlers had performed well in IPL 2022. Avesh Khan was the most successful bowler in the previous match with two wickets to his name in four overs against 26 runs. Mohsin Khan was the other bowler who was good with the ball and picked one wicket in four overs while he was charged for just 18 runs. Jason Holder also picked one wicket but he leaked a lot of runs. He was charged for 41 runs in four overs. Krunal Pandya and Dushmantha Chameera were the bowlers who could not pick any wicket. The bowling department of LSG is doing its job in a good way and we don’t think that they need to make any changes in the bowling department for this match.

RR had been good in IPL 2022, especially the batting order of this team. Rajasthan has some big names in T20 cricket. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Jos Buttler are opening the batting inning with Ravi Ashwin, Padikkal, Sanju Samson, and Riyan Parag available to handle the middle and lower batting order. van der Dussen is another batter who is part of the squad of RR. They were good in the previous match against Delhi where they scored 160 runs in 20 overs. Ashwin was the highest run-scorer in the previous match with 50 runs to his name on 38 balls with the help of four boundaries and two huge sixes. Devdutt Padikkal was the other batter who put some runs on the board. He scored 48 runs while he faced 30 balls and smashed six boundaries and two huge sixes. Jaiswal could manage to score 19 runs while van der Dussen remained not out after scoring 12 runs. Jos Buttler had been good in the previous matches but he was not good in the previous match and could manage to score just seven runs.

RR had played just one match against LSG where they had won that match.

Lucknow Super Giants had won three out of the most recent five matches they had played while Rajasthan Royals had also won three matches out of five recently played matches.

The toss is going to play an important in the result of each and every match of IPL 2022 as we had observed in the previous matches. According to toss prediction, the team who will win the toss will elect to field first as defending had been difficult in the most recent matches of IPL.

The 63rd match of IPL T20, 2022 is going to be held at the Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting in early overs. The track has a good amount of pace and bounce which allows the batsmen to the good cricketing shorts but this ground also have big boundaries which can be a plus point for the bowlers. A score of 190 plus seems to be a par score.

The weather forecast for Mumbai is good for this cricket match. There are almost no chances of rain in the region and we are hopeful that we will have a full match to enjoy.
