RR vs LSG Match 64 Live Commentary - Jaipur (19 May 2026)

1 run.

Sliding in at the hips, on a nagging length. Jurel turns it through square leg for a run.

A single sneaked in and that will be FIFTY for Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Gloves taken off, now then, is that another note coming out? Nope. Sooryavanshi instead forms an 'A' with his hands and points it towards the dugout. Across off, on a good length, Vaibhav brings out the reverse and gets it to the right of short third. A fumble from Mayank Yadav and the batters are alert enough to cross over.

Short and on middle. Jurel pushes it to the right of the bowler for a single.

Drops it a bit too short, on off. This is slapped to extra cover, where Mitchell Marsh moves to his right and keeps the batters down to one.

At 99.2 kph, angled in, on middle and leg. Jurel nurdles it through square leg for a run.

SIX! Clean strike!

SIX! Just over! It could have been a different outcome had the fielder been back at the fence. Fractionally short, on middle. Sooryavanshi plays the pull off the front foot and hits it flat towards deep backward square leg. Mayank Yadav is a few steps in off the ropes and leaps but the ball sails over his head for a six.

FOUR! Sooryavanshi flashes and flashes hard. Not the best of balls by Akash as this is short and wide on off. Vaibhav needs no second invitation. He throws the kitchen sink at it and the ball flies wide of the keeper off an outside edge for a boundary.

Fuller and closer to the off stump. That is punched off the back foot, but straight to cover.

FOUR! Off the edge again! Akash errs in both line and length again. Too short, too wide and Sooryavanshi swings hard to go big on the off side. It flies off a thickish outside edge over short third. One bounce and over the ropes.

SIX! Nothing edgy about this one. This has come right out of the screws. Angled into the left-hander, not short enough to trouble the batter. It sits up to be hit around the waist and Sooryavanshi pumps it over mid-wicket for a biggie. 20 runs off the over with a ball to go.

Wide! Pace off, on a shortish length, keeping it away from the batter's arc. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi lets it go. Too high for the umpire's liking.

Wide! Dug in short again and it is too high again. Sooryavanshi lets it be.

FOUR! Heaved away! 26 runs off the over, the most expensive over of the game. Akash Singh has blown hot and cold tonight. 23 runs off his first over, then a wicket and just 5 runs off his next and now a 26-run over. Full and slanting in at the sticks. Sooryavanshi clears the front leg and smears it to the right of the man at deep mid-wicket for a boundary. RR need 111 runs off 66 balls.

FOUR! Put away! Digvesh Singh drops it short, on off. Jurel is quick to rock back and pummels it aerially in the gap at deep mid-wicket for a boundary.

Better from Singh. Pushes it through, fuller and at the sticks. Jurel presents a straight bat for the block.

Floated up, on off. Dhruv punches it off the front foot to cover.

FOUR! Threads it through! A bit too short, on off. Jurel hops on the back foot in a flash and cuts it late to pick the gap between backward point and short third for the second boundary of the over. Digvesh gestures something towards Rishabh Pant about the field placement, but in truth, that was simply a poor delivery and nothing else.

Keeps the stumps in play and bowls it full, Jurel taps it back to the bowler.

Attacks the front pad, on a length. Dhruv brings his bat out in front to defend.

Starts well, does Akash. Hits the back of a length, on top of off. Jaiswal angles it off the back foot to backward point.

FOUR! Oh, misjudgement on the part of Mukul Choudhary! Off-pace delivery at 107.4 kph, on a good length. Jaiswal picks the slower ball and pauses his bat swing for a moment. He flashes at the ball and it goes low to backward point, where the sub fielder, Choudhary is caught wrong-footed. He extends his right hand low but the ball evades him and goes away for a boundary.

OUT! EDGED AND GONE! A much-needed breakthrough for LSG. Bowled with an upright seam, on a good length, around off. Jaiswal goes hard on the drive and there is just enough away movement to graze the outside edge. Rishabh Pant gobbles it up with ease. End of a 75-run opening stand.

Across off, on the shorter side. Jurel chops it down to point.

Tighter line, on a short of a length. Dhruv looks to punch it away but ends up bunting it down the strip.

Going away, on a back of a good length. Jurel cuts it late and manages to beat the diving backward point fielder to his left. Prince Yadav gets around in the deep and tidies up. Dhruv is off the mark with a single. A good comeback over from Akash after going for 23 runs in his first over. A wicket and 5 runs off it.

Goes past the bat! Going away, on a length, Jaiswal flashes hard at the ball but is beaten past the outside edge.

Low full toss, on middle. Jaiswal hurriedly gets his bat down and knocks it to the right of mid off for a single.

SIX! Clever, very clever! Dug in short at 140.6 kph, over middle. Sooryavanshi arches back and plays the shot behind himself. Angles the bat face in a fashion to ramp it over the keeper for a six.

FOUR! Powered away! Pushes the length up now, just outside the off stump. Sooryavanshi stays still in his crease and gets his hands through the ball to slam it along the ground between cover and mid off. It races away to the fence in a flash.

Nails the yorker, on middle. Vaibhav keeps it out on the off side.

FOUR! Nicely manufactured! Prince takes pace off and goes into the wicket, across. Sooryavanshi hops and gets his hands high to slap it with a horizontal bat back over the bowler's head. 15 off Prince's first over. After 6 overs, the Royals are 71/0.

The express pace from Yadav is working well for LSG. In the blockhole and just outside off at a searing 152.4 kph, Jaiswal looks to squeeze it away but the ball sneaks under the willow.

Full and attacking the pads, clipped away towards mid-wicket for a single. The 50-run stand is up between these two as well.

Good change of pace from Yadav. Slower one, on a good length around middle. Sooryavanshi watchfully defends it to cover.

Another off-paced delivery, and another dot ball for Yadav. On a good length, angled across off. Sooryavanshi looks to cut close to the body but is undone by the lack of pace.

SIX! Vaibhav Sooryavanshi seems to have had enough. Pace on this time, on a hard length and outside off. Sooryavanshi extends his arms and almost caresses the lofted drive, nailing it over the cover fence for a biggie.

A fine comeback delivery from Yadav to end the over. Quick and a bit short over middle, Sooryavanshi tries to crouch and play the ramp but is beaten for pace.

SIX! Down the wrong line and Yashasvi Jaiswal puts it away with ease. Short and angled down leg, Jaiswal gets inside the line and helps the pull over fine leg for a six.

FOUR! That's a cracking shot. Good-length delivery, but a tad wide outside off. Jaiswal throws his hands at it and hammers the cut through point for a boundary.

FOUR! Jaiswal is in the zone now. Pitched fuller and outside off, Jaiswal takes a step to the off side and jams the drive between mid off and extra cover for another boundary.

FOUR! Jaiswal is showing the full range here, 18 off the first 4 deliveries. Just back of a length, on a tight line around off. Jaiswal plays a late dab and gets it fine of short third for four more runs.

Mohsin pushes this one wide outside off, on a hard length and Jaiswal punches it down to cover-point.

Shorter in length, wide outside off again, cut away to deep point for one. 19 off the over, a big one for the Royals.

Full-pitched delivery at 144.2 clicks, angled across the off stump. Yashasvi Jaiswal goes for the big cover drive but is well beaten.

Mayank hits the deck hard and bowls it around leg. Jaiswal tucks it past square leg for a single.

That's zipped through. Fractionally short but wide outside off, at almost 148 clicks. Sooryavanshi has a swoosh at it but misses.

FOUR! Cleverly done by Sooryavanshi. Another quick ball, back of a length and outside off. Sooryavanshi waits back and just uses the face to ramp it to the right of deep backlward point for a boundary.

Fuller in length, attacking the stumps, Sooryavanshi backs away and hits it straight to cover.

A heart-in-the-mouth moment for Sooryavanshi, but he gets away with it. A skiddy short ball, over off stump and this one rushes the batter. Sooryavanshi looks to pull but miscues it badly and well in front of mid off. Tidy start from Yadav.

Mohsin begins with a short one. Banged in just outside off, and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi ducks under it.

Back of a length, just outside off, sliding back in sharply off the deck. Sooryavanshi punches it sweetly to cover.

 Sooryavanshi is off the mark with a well-judged single. Good length on middle, hitting the deck hard. Sooryavanshi pushes it without much timing towards mid on and pinches a quick run.

Short ball again, on middle, but comes in at an awkward height for Jaiswal. Jaiswal tries to hop up and fend it away but gets hit on the inside part of the elbow. That will definitely sting.

Hard length on off, Jaiswal stays back and lets the ball come on, dabbing it late and wide of short third for a single.

Mohsin Khan averages out that expensive first over and gives away just a couple of singles. Back of a length, around off, hit away in front of point. RR are 25/0 after 2, which is exactly what LSG were in their innings.

WIDE! Starts with a loosener, does Akash. Gentle-paced delivery, a touch full and angled well down leg. The Royals are underway with an extra.

FOUR! Yashasvi Jaiswal is off the mark in fine fashion. The on air commentators just mentioned that the fine leg is very wide and the ball travels to exactly where a normal fine leg would have been. Dug in short over middle and leg, swatted away down to fine leg for the first boundary of the chase.

FOUR! And again! Shortish length around the hips, seems like a definite plan but it isn't coming off at the moment for Akash Singh and Lucknow. Jaiswal just swivels and pulls it firmly towards the vacant fine leg region for another boundary.

FOUR! This time on the off side. Short and wide outside off, Yashasvi Jaiswal hangs on the back foot and spanks it away past point for a hat-trick of boundaries.

WIDE! Singh's radar seems completely off at the moment. Back of a length, darted well down leg, well taken by Rishabh Pant diving full-stretch to his right.

Much better! Good length, in and around off, kept out by Jaiswal.

FIVE WIDES! Oh, dear, this is turning out to be a long and frustrating over for LSG. Skiddish length on leg, nips a long way down the leg side and this time Pant can't get to it. The ball rolls down to the fine leg fence. 19 off the over already.

Back of a length, straighter in line, around the rib cage and Jaiswal can't quite get it away.

FOUR! Well, that's the last thing you want as a bowler, especially when you have already conceded 19 runs in the over. Short and wide outside off, there to be hit. Yashasvi Jaiswal cuts it hard but straight to deep backward point, where Mayank Yadav fumbles it onto the ropes. 23 off the first over of the chase.
