LSG vs RR: Lucknow Super Giants' Predicted Playing XI Against Rajasthan Royals, IPL 2022, Match 63 LSG vs RR

Lucknow Super Giants take on Rajasthan Royals in match 63 in a bid to seal the playoffs spot at the Brabourne stadium in Mumbai. They are on 16 points and another win would guarantee them a spot in the playoffs. Thus this is a must-win game for them given the points table is so tight and every team barring MI and CSK are alive in the contest.

Lucknow have played two very different games in their last two matches. They peppered the KKR batters with short-pitched deliveries and registered a 75-run win while defending 175. In the very next game against Gujarat Titans, they were bowled out for 82 chasing a paltry 145.

Gautam Gambhir and the team management have some rethinking to do as to what XI can help them win the game against the Royals. In this article, we predict LSG’s predicted playing XI against RR.

Quinton de Kock

Manish Pandey

Instead of Karan Sharma who scored just four in the last match, LSG can include the experienced Manish Pandey for the last two games. He has the experience to anchor the innings in the middle overs and Gambhir is well known about it having played together at KKR.

Krunal Pandya

Marcus Stoinis

Stoinis should ideally bat at number five or six in the batting order. Often he has been sent into bat way too late with too much asked to deliver. Having retained the Australian all-rounder, LSG has not used him well to deliver.

Ayush Badoni

Keeping in mind the team combination, Ayush Badoni should bat at number seven. He played a few important knocks at the start of the season but has tapered off since then. Against Gujarat, he scored 8 off 11 balls.

Dushmantha Chameera

Chameera has been impressive for the Super Giants throughout the season as well. He has bowled with pace and unsettled the batsmen. He has picked up nine wickets so far in 10 games this season.

Avesh Khan

Avesh rounds of Lucknow Super Giants’s predicted playing XI. They might opt to in with a four-man seam attack given that the Brabourne pitch is good for batting and they have a good pace attack. He has picked up 16 wickets in 10 games this year so far.
