RR vs LSG: RR playing XI vs LSG, Match 4, IPL 2024 – Predicted

The first game on Sunday, March 24 in IPL 2024 will host the RR vs LSG clash in Jaipur.

The inaugural IPL winners Rajasthan Royals (RR) have had decent seasons in the Indian Premier League (IPL) in their last two attempts. They made it to the final in 2022 but missed a place in the playoffs in 2023 because of NRR. But now they will look to go big in the IPL 2024 that will kick off for them on Sunday, March 24.

RR will start their campaign with a match against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur, on Sunday. It will be a challenging game to start with, but RR has the players to turn it on for them under Sanju Samson’s captaincy. In this article, we will talk about Rajasthan’s predicted team for RR vs LSG clash on Sunday.

RR vs LSG: Rajasthan’s predicted playing 11 vs LSG

1. Yashasvi Jaiswal

Yashasvi Jaiswal is one of those players in the IPL 2024, who is coming off a spectacular international season. The left-hander had a record-breaking test series against England, and he will be high on confidence. It will not be a surprise if he single-handedly destroys LSG on Sunday.

2. Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler has always performed well for RR in the IPL, and his consistency is one thing that is always a headache for the opposition. He had a pretty good SA20 and will look to start this season with some runs. His stay on the crease will ensure RR is in a good position.

3. Sanju Samson (c & wk)

RR skipper Sanju Samson has been one of the best batters in the IPL for the last 3–4 seasons. His ability to score runs at a rapid rate makes him a difficult batter to handle. And Samson has always performed better while being the captain. So he will look to do the same on Sunday.

4. Shimron Hetmyer

Shimron Hetmyer will be another RR batter who plays with a mindset to take on the opposition bowling, which makes this top order a very strong one. The left-hander has a beautiful flow when he bats, and he connects most of the deliveries. LSG bowlers should not bowl in his area because they will travel far if they do.

5. Dhurv Jurel

A fantastic test series against England has skyrocketed the stock of Dhurv Jurel. Now everyone knows what he can do, and on his day, he is enough for the opposition. With a good international start, he will feel confident, and that will reflect in his batting.

6. Riyan Parag

One player whom RR trust a lot is Riyan Parag, and he has improved very well in the last year or so. The all-rounder had a brilliant Ranji Trophy with the bat and the ball, but he is yet to make a big mark in the IPL. However, the IPL 2024 can be a breakthrough season for him, and he can be a surprise package.

7. Nandre Burger

With Prasidh Krishna not available, RR had to rethink their bowling combination. Hence, we might see two overseas bowlers, and one of them might be Nandre Burger. The South African pacer had a brilliant start to his international career. With his good height and pace, he can trouble the LSG batter to give his team a good start.

8. Ravi Ashwin

Ravi Ashwin, with RR, plays the role of an all-rounder. The franchise used him up for the order in 2023, and he responded well with some good knocks. But his prime job will be to take wickets in the middle overs, and with LSG having so many left-handers, he can be the game-changer.

9. Avesh Khan

Avesh Khan was bought by RR via trade deal from LSG before the IPL 2024 auction, and he will directly make his debut on Sunday. The Indian pacer is a nippy kind of bowler who bowls some hard balls. He goes for runs but takes wickets as well. He played for LSG, and now he will be playing against them; that will be enough to motivate him.

10. Trent Boult

Trent Boult needs no introduction, and he will be the bowler that LSG will not want to give the wickets away to. Boult with the new is impressive, and we might see him take 2-3 wickets on Sunday to take his team to a good position.

11. Yuzi Chahal

Yuzi Chahal will be in action after a long time, and he will look to start well. A lot will depend on how Chahal bowls on Sunday because his four overs can make or break the game for RR. But with the experience he has, he delivers more often than not.
