Lucknow Super Giants and Rajasthan Royals have met eight times in the men’s IPL through 19 May 2026. Rajasthan lead six wins to two, including both games played in 2026. Their latest meeting produced a high-scoring Jaipur chase: Lucknow made 220/5 and Rajasthan finished on 225/3 with five balls to spare.
This is a relatively young IPL matchup. Lucknow joined the league for 2022, while Rajasthan’s competition history begins with the inaugural 2008 title. In their head-to-head series, the narrow two-run Lucknow win in April 2025 sits between several Rajasthan victories. The record, opposition-specific batting totals and most recent completed results below show that contrast without projecting any 2027 outcome.

Rajasthan RoyalsLSG vs RR IPL head-to-head record
Rajasthan held a 4–2 lead before the teams met in Lucknow on 22 April 2026. Their 40-run victory made that five wins from seven; the seven-wicket Jaipur win on 19 May moved the series to six from eight. Lucknow’s two wins remain in the record. There was no tied match or no-result in these eight meetings, so the wins add up to the full total.
This table covers only IPL matches between Lucknow and Rajasthan, not how either club performed against the other eight franchises. The 2026 fixtures are counted separately, and the completed 19 May match is the cutoff.

Most runs in LSG vs RR IPL matches
Yashasvi Jaiswal leads this specific matchup with 272 runs. Sanju Samson follows on 200, then KL Rahul on 183, Deepak Hooda on 162 and Riyan Parag on 158. Rahul and Hooda’s runs were scored for Lucknow in these meetings; the labels describe their affiliation for the relevant games, not a claim about a future squad.
A pre-match table on 19 May listed Jaiswal at 229. His 43 in Rajasthan’s 225/3 chase raised his matchup total to 272. Samson and Parag did not bat in that chase; the other three leaders’ totals in the five cards are unchanged. These are runs against this opponent in IPL games, not overall IPL career aggregates.
The batting snapshot helps distinguish the rivalry’s match results from individual contribution. In the April 2024 chase of 197, Samson’s unbeaten 71 helped Rajasthan reach 199/3. In a March 2024 home win, he made an unbeaten 82. Those two innings are part of his 200-run matchup figure, not extra runs on top of it.
Last five LSG vs RR IPL meetings
The newest game came at Jaipur on 19 May 2026. Lucknow’s 220/5 included Mitchell Marsh‘s 96; Rajasthan crossed the target in 19.1 overs, with Vaibhav Sooryavanshi scoring 93 and Dhruv Jurel finishing on 53 not out. Less than a month earlier, Rajasthan defended 159/6 in Lucknow and dismissed LSG for 119. Those very different matches both count as RR wins.
Lucknow’s closest victory in this five-game sample was by two runs in April 2025: they defended 180/5 and RR finished 178/5. The remaining two games were in 2024. Rajasthan chased LSG’s 196/5 to finish 199/3 in April; in March they defended 193/4 against 173/6. The dates make clear that this is a most-recent-five list, not five consecutive wins for either club.
