Avesh Khan to Shubham DubeyLSG WIN A THRILLER HERE AND AVESH KHAN HAS DONE IT FOR THEM! He bowls a yorker again and around off Shubham Dubey comes forward and drills it back to the bowler who tries to get away from the shot to not get hit by it. The ball follows him and he gets hit on his right hand and gets deflected towards the off side. The batters only manage to take a singleand LSG win by 2 runs.

Avesh Khan to Shubham DubeyIN THE AIR....DROPPED! Would you believe it? Of all people it is David Miller who spills it out. A full toss around off Shubham Dubey clears out his front leg and looks to go downtown for a big shot. He mistimes it high in the air towards long on. Miller runs forward and slides across to take itbut the ball bursts out of his hands. The batters run two and RR needs 4 now off the last ball. Can they do it?

Avesh Khan to Shimron HetmyerOUT! GONE! Shardul Thakur holds onto that one and Shimron Hetmyer is gone with RR still needing 6 off the last three balls! Avesh bowls it much fuller and on the pads not giving any room to the batter. Hetmyer stays deep-rooted in his crease as he looks to flick it. He makes a good connection but finds the fielder at square leg. Thakur takes it with ease. The field position was bang on from the skipper Rishabh Pantand LSG have got the wicket as Thakur has come in here just before this ball.

Avesh Khan to Shimron HetmyerHetmyer survives and RR need 6 now! On a fuller length and touch outside off Shimron Hetmyer crouches and looks to loft it over cover but his bat face gets turned and the ball goes off the outer half of the bat to deep backward point. The fielder Shardul Thakur makes a bit of a fumble there in collecting the ball cleanly and that allows the batter to run back for the second. Thakur throws it to the keeper where Rishabh Pant tries to flick the ball to the stumps but misses and whips the stumps with his glovesbut without the ball in his mitts. Hetmyer makes it in time with a timely full-stretched dive. Two taken.

Avesh Khan to Riyan ParagOUT! LBW! Avesh Khan has turned the tide a bit in favour of LSG with this double whammy! Though Parag has taken a review out of the hope of getting away! A fuller ball around middle gets it to nip back in a bit as well Riyan Parag shuffles across and looks to ramp it over fine leg. He falls over in the process and misses the line of the ball as he gets beaten on the inside edge. The ball pings him on the front pad and Avesh makes an appeal instantly. The umpire raises his finger. The third umpire checks and there is no bat involved. The Ball Tracking comes up with three reds and Parag will have to go back as he also burned a review. Quite needless to say the leastfrom Parag.

He misses the line and the ball goes past his bat to rattle the stumps. Could this be the moment for LSG? Yashasvi Jaiswal departs for a fantastic knock of 74 (52).

Well then, another Saturday has gone by as this wraps up the 36th match of this season of IPL. Lucknow Super Giants pull off an unexpected heist in Jaipur, defeating RR by 2 runs, and registering their fifth win of the season. Earlier in the day game, in Ahmedabad, Gujarat Titans got the better of Delhi Capitals, by chasing a big total of 204. We have seen two games of absolutely contrasting results this evening. But that's what IPL is known for. Next up is another thrilling double header coming your way as first, it’s the Punjab Kings who will host the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Mullanpur, with the first ball scheduled to be bowled at 3.30 pm IST (10 am GMT). It will be followed by the rivalry of the ages as the Mumbai Indians welcome the Chennai Super Kings in Wankhede. That match will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT) on Sunday, April 20th. But as you all know, our buildup begins much earlier. So make sure you tune in an hour earlier for that as well. But for now, we take your leave. Take care!
Shubham Dubey is in at number 7. RR need 6 off 3 now.
Is that a run out? Hettie saw the fielder, Shardul Thakur, fumble in the deep and called for the second run. He rushed and dived to get home at the striker's end. He is safe as he dragged his bat just before the keeper, Rishabh Pant whipped the bails off, but without the ball in hand.
Avesh Khan to bowl the final over of the match. He is 3-0-31-2 so far. Just cast your minds back a few moons. Same batters at the crease, in the form of Jurel and Hetmyer. It was Mitchell Starc who defended 9 runs and the match went into the super over. It is Avesh Khan this time around, with the same amount of runs needed. Can he turn the fortunes for LSG?
Shimron Hetmyer makes his way to the crease at number 6. Prince Yadav (3-0-28-0) to bowl the penultimate over, with RR needing another 20 runs to win.
Dhruv Jurel is in at number 5.
Probably the last throw at the dice from Pant. Here's Digvesh Singh to wrap his spell. He is 3-0-22-0 so far.
STRATEGIC BREAK. The game is well and truly under the arrest of the Rajasthan Royals, and they just need to play risk-free cricket to get the job done. For LSG, they have lacked the conviction this time around. Not that they have bowled too poorly. To turn the tide from here, they need to break this partnership, which has mounted 41 runs off 30 balls already. With 46 more needed off the last 5 overs, time is running out for LSG. Here's Avesh Khan into the attack. Went for 13 off his first over.
Ravi Bishnoi replaces Prince Yadav from this end.
Digvesh Singh (2-0-13-0) is back into the attack.
Change? Yes, Prince Yadav (1-0-6-0) is back into the attack.
Riyan Parag will bat at number four for RR. Also, Ravi Bishnoi replaces Aiden Markram from this end.
Shardul Thakur (2-0-26-0) comes back into the attack.
Nitish Rana is the new batter in for RR.
A stumping appeal has been referred upstairs. The third umpire sees the replays, and the youngster, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, will have to go back as his back foot was in the air when Rishabh Pant whipped off the bails.
Another change from LSG's skipper Rishabh Pant as he brings back Aiden Markram into the attack.
STRATEGIC BREAK! Royals are well ahead in this big chase at this point with a score of 71/0 after seven overs. The youngster, a 14-year-old old has smashed his very first ball for a six and is keeping well along with Yashasvi Jaiswal in this partnership. Jasiwal is looking in his best of touches today, and he holds the key for RR in the next couple of overs, as if he stays, he will definitely make this game one-sided pretty much, with the way he is playing at the moment. Rajasthan have found at least a boundary in most of the overs, and the pressure is on the bowlers of LSG to deliver. This wicket has something to offer to spinners, and Pant has called them in from both ends. Let's see how it goes as Digvesh Singh returns to the attack.
Rajasthan Royals are off to a flier after the Powerplay as their opening duo has added 61 runs in no time. With that, Ravi Bishnoi comes into the attack.
Rishabh Pant has called another change here. Prince Yadav comes into the attack to bowl the final over of the Powerplay.
Spin in tandem now. Aiden Markram is introduced into the attack. He replaces Shardul Thakur.
Time for spin now. Digvesh Singh comes into the attack. He replaces Avesh Khan.
Avesh Khan to operate from the far end. There's a stoppage, however, the reason for it is unknown. But before that, Avesh completed his run-up and was about to deliver the ball, but Jaiswal opted out just at the last moment. The reason for the stoppage is still unclear. The batters now walk mid-pitch to have a brief talk. All good to continue now.
