RR vs LSG Pitch Report
Two different strips were used at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium for the IPL 2023. While one looked conducive to batting, the other appeared slow, low, and helpful for the spinners.
As it is a day game, both skippers might look to bowl first after winning the toss. Chasing under lights might seem the easier job, and hence, they will probably select that option.

Fantasy Value from the Pitch Report
- The spinners had a big say in most of the matches in IPL 2023. This being a day game, spinners from the team that bowls first will be great picks.

RR vs LSG Fantasy Cricket Tips
Rajasthan Royals Heavy Fantasy XI
- If you are going for a Rajasthan Royals-heavy team, then Jos Buttler, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Sanju Samson will be the obvious choices. But you can drop one of these heavyweights and select Dhruv Jurel instead. He might be a handy pick, giving you points with his batting lower down the order.
- Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin should be your go-to picks for this game. You can also opt for Trent Boult in an RR-heavy fantasy XI alongside these two spinners.
Lucknow Super Giants Heavy Fantasy XI
- In an Lucknow Super Giants-heavy fantasy XI, skipper KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock will be critical picks. However, you can choose a middle-order batter in Marcus Stoinis or Nicholas Pooran instead of both Rahul and de Kock.
- Ravi Bishnoi should be the first option among the bowlers from LSG. Alongside Bishnoi, you can go with someone like Mohsin Khan if he gets a chance in the playing XI.
RR vs LSG Winner Predictions
Given the squad compositions and the form of the players, Rajasthan Royals should emerge as the winners in this game. However, the team chasing the target will have an advantage in the game.
RR vs LSG Top Player Picks
Yashasvi Jaiswal (RR)
The young Indian left-hander is in dream batting form at present. Yashasvi Jaiswal has proved himself at the international level for the past 8-10 months, and there is no way you can drop him from your fantasy XI.

Yuzvendra Chahal (RR)
The Indian leg-spinner is returning to the limelight after quite some time. But Yuzvendra Chahal has been doing a decent job in the domestic circuit, and his records in the IPL make Chahal a crucial choice for the game.
Quinton de Kock (LSG)
The South African superstar has been in great form in most of the leagues he has played this year. Quinton de Kock will be looking to carry his form into the IPL 2024. His aggression at the top allows you to pick up valuable points at the start of the match.

Ravi Bishnoi will be a key bowler for LSG in the match [X]
Ravi Bishnoi (LSG)
The young Indian leg-spinner has firmed himself as a T20 bowler quickly. Ravi Bishnoi has a bag full of tricks to be the middle-over game-changer for his team. Given the nature of the wicket at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Bishnoi should find a place in your fantasy XI.
RR vs LSG Differential Picks
Shimron Hetmyer (RR)
The West Indian middle-order batter can be a game-changer on his day. Shimron Hetmyer's naturally aggressive batting style makes him a vital cog of any team he is a part of. However, consistency is a big issue with Hetmyer; hence, he has been slotted into the differential picks section.
Nicholas Pooran (LSG)
There is little a bowling line-up can do if Nicholas Pooran gets going. He can pull off the most impossible-looking heists with his bat. However, like Hetmyer, Pooran also suffers from inconsistency, making him a differential choice for the match.
RR vs LSG Fantasy Expert Advice
Given the strengths of the two teams and how the wicket behaved in IPL 2023, a 4-2-3-2 or a 4-1-2-4 combination could be good for the fantasy contests of the match.
