IPL 2026, Match 32 – Who will win today’s player battles between Lucknow vs Rajasthan? – CricTracker

The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) play host to the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Match 32 of the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana International Cricket Stadium on Wednesday, April 22.

Both sides come into the game on the back of multiple defeats. LSG have lost three games on the bounce since their last-ball victory over the Kolkata Knight Riders. Rishabh Pant’s side’s most recent loss came against the Punjab Kings, where they lost by 54 runs.

RR, on the other hand, have suffered back-to-back defeats following four wins from their opening four matches. They most recently suffered defeat at the hands of a winless KKR side at the Eden Gardens.

The game on Wednesday will once again see RR’s explosive batting lineup face off against an experienced bowling unit. LSG have the likes of Mohammed Shami, Prince Yadav and Digvesh Rathi, who are all capable of troubling the opposition batting.

The hosts’ star-studded batting lineup is currently not in the best of form, but is only an innings or two away from finding its feet. RR’s bowling will be a huge challenge for them, particularly in the powerplay.

Here are 3 player battles for LSG vs RR, Match 32 of IPL 2026:

3. Mitchell Marsh vs Jofra Archer

The Ashes rivalry will continue between the Australian and English duo of Mitchell Marsh and Jofra Archer during the opening stages of the innings. The pair have faced off against one another just once in the IPL, where Archer got the better of the right-handed batter from just two balls bowled.

That happened in the game between LSG and RR last year in Jaipur, where the visitors secured a narrow two-run victory.
