RR vs LSG Pitch Report:

The opening IPL 2023 game will feature RR vs. LSG at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. Here in T20s, the average first-inning scoring is 158 runs. The side batting first should aim for a score of 180 or higher to give itself a decent chance of winning because the outfield is quick at this site and batting becomes easier when the dew moves in later in the night.

RR vs LSG Weather Report:

The fact that there is some green on the surface will benefit the quick bowlers early in the game. The ball comes on to the bat rapidly and bounces evenly, allowing batters to play their strokes freely. Additionally, dew is also probably going to be a factor, which will make scoring runs in the second innings much simpler. On the day of the game, there will be some cloudiness, and from 7:30 pm on, the temperature will range from 31 to 33 degrees Celcius.

RR vs LSG CricAdvisor Predictions:

The home team will have an advantage going into this match. They are in great form and have the winning momentum on their side, especially after the recent win led by skipper Sanju Samson. Lucknow Super Giants seem to be struggling with the bat and this will be a good opportunity for their top order to get back in form. The bowling is strong on both sides and it will be a close encounter between the two teams. We reckon RR has a slight edge over LSG and hence, will start as favorites in our match prediction. So we predict Rajasthan Royals will win.
