The inaugural champions of the Indian Premier League (IPL) – Rajasthan Royals haven’t been able to produce the intended result for their side. It’s not just the case of a few seasons, but their history suggests that they have never clicked when it mattered the most.
RR won the IPL in its very first season, but since then it has been a barren run for them. Their recent best came in the IPL 2022 as they made it to the finals of the tournament, but it was just not meant to be their day as they faced a defeat against Gujarat Titans.
The previous IPL season turned out to be a mediocre one for them. The Sanju Samson-led side could only win seven and lost as many to remain in the fifth spot after the league stages. It remains to be seen how the team comes up in the brand-new season of the IPL.
On the other side, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) have been fantastic in their two IPL outings. In both the IPL seasons, they have been part of, LSG has managed to reach the playoffs quite comfortably. However, the story following the league stages hasn’t been memorable for them.
LSG lost to RCB in the eliminator in the IPL 2022 and found themselves in a similar situation as they faced Mumbai Indians last year in the eliminator. Both times the result has been the same for them, which the team would like to change this year.
