Rajasthan Royals will be aiming to keep their playoff hopes alive when they host Lucknow Super Giants in their penultimate group match of the IPL 2026 season at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Tuesday.
The RR vs LSG IPL 2026 match on May 19 will start at 7:30 PM Indian Standard Time (IST) and will be available to watch on live streaming and live telecast.
Placed sixth in the standings with 12 points from as many games, the Royals must win the clash against the Super Giants to stay in the IPL 2026 playoffs race.
The Royals have won just two of their last six matches. One of those wins came against the Super Giants in the reverse fixture between the sides earlier this season.
Despite spirited batting displays from skipper RR captain Riyan Parag, teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Dhruv Jurel in recent matches, RR have come up short and will aim to arrest their slide down the points table with a win over LSG.
Lucknow Super Giants, on the other hand, are rooted at the bottom of the standings and are already out of reckoning for the playoffs.
