Lucknow Super Giants played the 63rd match of Tata IPL 2022 with Rajasthan Royals. The game was played at Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on 15th May. RR defeated LSG by twenty-four runs yesterday. Rajasthan won the toss and batted for the first inning. Yashasvi Jaiswal scored forty-one runs, and Devdutt Padikkal made thirty-nine runs.

Deepak Hooda made fifty-nine runs, and Marcus Stoinos scored twenty-seven runs. Ravi Bishnoi bagged two wickets for Lucknow. LSG didn’t pass the target and lost by 24 runs.
Trent Boult was awarded the Man of the Match due to his impressive all-around performance. He stated, “I’m happy to get a swing, some days are better than others. I’m happy with the wickets. I have a simple game with the ball, I try to pitch it up and am happy to swing it. But not happy at no.8, but we’ll see how it goes there. Neesham’s catch was good, and the intensity in the field was high. It’s nice to be on the right side of the result. I’m not surprised that today’s four was my first, but I’m discussing my batting at a press conference which I didn’t think would happen. It’s a tough place to bowl, foreign for me. It offers a lot of learning and opportunities, and this is an exciting tournament to be a part of.”
Sanju Samson, the Captain of Rajasthan Royals said this in the post-match interview, “ I’ve been taking some really good decisions. Very happy the win was satisfying. The atmosphere is chilled and nice. Very tough to maintain a good environment when there are losses. Batting first, I think it suits the way we play as a team. No matter whatever the result is we want to play positive cricket for 20 overs. When you lose matches it goes down as a wrong decision. Decisions are judged by results. Ashwin did well in the previous game. That’s the chat we had. We need to keep on building the energy and intensity. Today the intensity in the field was good. Special mention to Jimmy Neesham, who came in after a very long break and brought a lot of energy. Bonus point of having quality spinners, you can bowl them anywhere. I do speak a lot of Tamil. Each and everyone went on to bat today and showed intent. We didn’t complicate it too much. You can’t think and analyze too much in this format. We did well today.”
