RR vs LSG Dream11 Prediction: The excitement of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2026) is at its peak. In the 64th match of the tournament, scheduled for Tuesday, May 19, Rajasthan Royals (RR) are set to face Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at Jaipur’s historic Sawai Mansingh Stadium.
For the Rajasthan Royals, led by Riyan Parag, this encounter is a ‘do-or-die’ situation. The team has managed to win only one of its last five matches, a poor run of form that has effectively knocked them out of the race for the top four spots. Following their defeat at the hands of Delhi Capitals on Sunday, Rajasthan desperately needs a victory in this match—at all costs—to keep their playoff hopes alive.
On the other hand, the Rishabh Pant-led Lucknow Super Giants—despite currently sitting at the bottom of the points table—have hit a magnificent stride towards the business end of the tournament.
Having won two of their last three matches (against RCB and CSK), Lucknow’s morale is high, and they will take the field with the intent of spoiling Rajasthan’s plans.

Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur: Pitch Report
Jaipur’s Sawai Mansingh Stadium has proven to be a paradise for batsmen this season.
In the three matches played at this venue so far in IPL 2026, the team batting first has posted a score exceeding 220. Of these matches, the team chasing the target emerged victorious in two instances, while in one match, the Gujarat Titans successfully defended their total.
- A Challenge for Bowlers: The spongy black-soil surface here offers a unique kind of bounce for ‘hit-the-deck’ bowlers; however, the ball comes onto the bat quite easily.
- The Geometry of Boundaries: The square boundaries (on the leg and off sides) at this venue are longer than the straight boundaries. Consequently, it will be easier for batsmen to score runs by playing shots ‘down the ground’ (towards the front).
Predicted Playing XI for Both Teams
For this crucial encounter, both teams are likely to take the field with the following line-ups:
Rajasthan Royals (RR Playing 11)
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Dhruv Jurel (Wicketkeeper), Riyan Parag (Captain), Donovan Ferreira, Ravindra Jadeja, Dasun Shanaka, Jofra Archer, Adam Milne, Brijesh Sharma, Yashraj Punja.
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG Playing 11)
Mitchell Marsh, Nicholas Pooran, Rishabh Pant (Captain & Wicketkeeper), Aiden Markram, Mukul Chaudhary, Abdul Samad, Shahbaz Ahmed, Mohammed Shami, Digvesh Rathi, Akash Singh, Prince Yadav.
