How Statz Rating works:
- Each player receives a contextual match impact score based on their all-round contribution — batting, bowling, and situational factors.
- Ratings are scaled against the season benchmark so they are directly comparable across fixtures and to the season leaderboard.
- A typical top performer scores around 100. Exceptional performances can exceed 100.
Rajasthan Royals vs Lucknow Super Giants – IPL 2026 Match Report | Statz
Rajasthan Royals beat Lucknow Super Giants by 7 wickets (with 5 balls remaining) in the 64th match of 74 in the Indian Premier League 2026, played at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. The win moves RR to 14 points from 13 games – consolidating fourth place with the playoff race entering its final stretch. For LSG, now bottom of the table on 8 points from 13, elimination is all but certain.
First Innings: Lucknow Super Giants 220/5 (20 overs)
LSG set a competitive 220/5 after RR elected to bowl. The innings was built around a commanding opening partnership – Mitchell Marsh and Josh Inglis putting on 109 for the first wicket before Inglis was clean bowled in the 9th over for 60 off 29 balls (7 fours, 3 sixes, SR 207).
Nicholas Pooran came and went quickly – caught out for 16 off 11 at 151/2 in the 12th over. Rishabh Pant (35 off 23, SR 152) kept the momentum going but was run out at 215/4 in the 19th over. Marsh, who dominated throughout, was run out for 96 off 57 (11 fours, 5 sixes, SR 168) agonisingly in the penultimate delivery of the innings, just four short of a century. Ayush Badoni was bowled off the last ball for a duck, leaving LSG on 220/5.
For RR, Yash Raj Punja was the pick of the bowlers with 2/35 from 4 overs (Econ 8.75). Jofra Archer took 1/39 from 4 overs. Sushant Mishra and Brijesh Sharma went wicketless and expensive, conceding 46 and 44 respectively.
Second Innings: Rajasthan Royals 225/3 (19.1 overs)
RR blew the chase open from ball one. Yashasvi Jaiswal (43 off 23, 8 fours, SR 187) and Vaibhav Suryavanshi put on 75 for the first wicket in just 6.3 overs. Jaiswal was caught at 75/1, but Suryavanshi was already in full flow.
The teenager was something else entirely – 93 off 38 balls with 7 fours and 10 sixes at a strike rate of 245. He took the match away from LSG in a devastating middle-overs assault before being caught at 180/2 in the 14th over. By that point, RR needed just 41 from 38 balls with 8 wickets in hand – game over.
Dhruv Jurel (53* off 38, SR 139) and Lhuan-dre Pretorius (7 off 6) kept things ticking. Pretorius was run out at 196/3 but Donovan Ferreira came in to finish with 16* off 10. RR crossed the line in 19.1 overs with 5 balls to spare.
LSG’s best bowler was Mohsin Khan with 1/31 from 4 overs (Econ 7.75). Mayank Yadav went wicketless, conceding 50 from 4 overs (Econ 12.5). Akash Maharaj Singh took 1/54 from 3 overs and sent down 9 wides.
Statz MVP: Vaibhav Suryavanshi (mi_rating 133.54)
Vaibhav Suryavanshi is the Statz MVP with an mi_rating of 133.54 – Statz calculates impact based on match context, and 93 off 38 at a strike rate of 245 in a successful run chase is exactly the kind of innings that drives that number sky-high. No official Man of the Match was awarded for this fixture.
Top 5 Statz Ratings
- Vaibhav Suryavanshi (RR) – 133.54 – 93 off 38, 10 sixes, SR 245. Match-winning innings that buried LSG.
- Mitchell Marsh (LSG) – 90.84 – 96 off 57, 11 fours, 5 sixes, SR 168. Agonisingly run out four short of a century.
- Josh Inglis (LSG) – 86.37 – 60 off 29, SR 207. Explosive start that set the platform for LSG’s 220.
- Yash Raj Punja (RR) – 70.67 – 2/35 from 4 overs. The best of RR’s attack, keeping LSG to a manageable total.
- Yashasvi Jaiswal (RR) – 57.16 – 43 off 23, SR 187. Set the tone for the chase before Suryavanshi took over.
Turning Point
Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s dismissal in the 14th over (13.6) – caught out for 93 at a score of 180/2 – was the moment that defined this match, albeit in reverse. At that point RR needed 41 from 38 balls with 8 wickets in hand. The game was already won. The real damage was done in the prior six overs as Suryavanshi smashed 10 sixes and effectively made the 220 target look trivial.
In the first innings, the decisive blow came when Pant was run out at 215/4 in the 19th over (19.1). LSG were threatening 230+ but the run out ended any late surge – they managed just 5 more from 5 balls.
Match Context
This was the 64th match of 74 in the IPL 2026 Regular Season, with the playoff spots now coming into sharp focus.

- 10th – Lucknow Super Giants: 8 pts, W4 L9, NRR -0.639
Rajasthan Royals sit fourth on 14 points and in the playoff places. With 10 games remaining across the competition, this win is vital – they are two points ahead of the chasing pack (PBKS on 13, CSK and DC on 12) and NRR could yet matter. Lucknow Super Giants, now on 8 points from 13 games with W4 L9 and a NRR of -0.639, need an improbable run of results to have any hope of sneaking into the top four.
