As it happened: Lucknow Super Giants vs Rajasthan Royals, IPL 2022, Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai
By Alagappan MuthuRoyals win!
Rajasthan Royals 178 (Jaiswal 41, Padikkal 39, Bishnoi 2-31) beat Lucknow Super Giants (Hooda 59, Boult 2-18, McCoy 2-35, Prasidh 2-32) by 24 runs
Rajasthan Royals are happy to have four No. 11s in their line-up. And this is why. Each of them - led by Trent Boult - produced a match-winning contribution and this one will taste ever so sweet because they have taken a massive step towards the IPL playoffs. They knocked the stuffing out of Lucknow Super Giants, who in all likelihood will be one of the teams they will meet in those knockout matches later this month. So this win - defending 178 - isn't just that, it's something to carry forward.
