Delhi edges Mumbai to keep IPL playoff hopes alive while Samson powers Rajasthan to win
NEW DELHI (AP) Heavy hitting from Jake Fraser-McGurk and Tristan Stubbs helped Delhi Capitals hold off Mumbai Indians by 10 runs in a high-scoring Indian Premier League game on Saturday. In the second game of the day, Sanju Samson powered league leaders the Rajasthan Royals to a seven-wicket win over Lucknow Super Giants. Fraser-McGurk lashed 84 runs off only 27 balls and Stubbs contributed an unbeaten 48 off 25 as Delhi amassed 257-4 in 20 overs. Tilak Varma led Mumbais reply with 63 off 32 but the visitors fell short at 247-9. Delhi moved to fifth place, just outside the top four on net run-rate. Mumbai was ninth after its sixth loss in nine games. Put into bat, Delhi made a fiery start. The openers smashed 114 runs off only 45 balls. Beside Fraser-McGurk, Abishek Porel scored 36. The power play yielded 92-0 as Fraser-McGurk reached 50 off only 15 balls. He took another 34 runs off the next 12 balls faced but was out with a century in sight after pulling a Piyush Chawla googly straight to deep midwicket. Fraser-McGurk excited with 11 boundaries and six sixes. Shai Hope added 41 off 17 balls, including five sixes. Delhi crossed 200 in 16.1 overs and there was enough time to launch a death overs attack. Stubbs took center stage, smacking six fours and two sixes, including 30 runs off the 18th over bowled by Luke Wood. In reply to Delhi's highest total of the season, Mumbai lost Rohit Sharma (8) and Suryakumar Yadav (26) relatively cheaply to Khaleel Ahmed. Varma revived the chase with 71 off 39 balls, and skipper Hardik Pandya scored 46 off 24 balls, hitting three sixes. Varma hit four sixes and another four fours. Pandya was out caught in the 13th over and Varma pushed on further. Tim David provided late sparks with 37 off 17 as Mumbai crossed 200 in 17.1 overs. But the target proved too high. In Lucknow, visiting skipper Sanju Samson smashed 71 not out off 33 balls to help Rajasthan chase down the Super Giants 196-5 with an over to spare. Samsons fourth half-century of the season led Rajasthan to 199-3. Dhruv Jurel contributed an unbeaten 52 off 34 balls. Rajasthan got a speedy start from in-form openers Yashasvi Jaiswal (34) and Jos Buttler (24), who shared 60 off 35 balls. But they fell in a span of three deliveries at the power plays end. Samson then anchored the innings intelligently, and with Jurel for company they powered the chase towards victory. They combined for 121 runs off 62 balls, hitting six sixes and 12 boundaries. Four of those sixes were Samson's, sending a reminder to the India selectors ahead of the T20 World Cup in June. Earlier, Lucknow skipper Lokesh Rahul scored 76 off 48 balls to rescue them from 11-2 in two overs. They put up a par-plus 196-5 total. Deepak Hooda chipped in 50 off 31 balls, adding 115 off 62 balls with Rahul. Rajasthan opened a six-point gap to the chasing pack. Lucknow stayed fourth.
IPL 2024: Samson's 71 Not Out Tops Rahul's 76 As Rajasthan Royals Beat LSG By Seven Wickets (Ld)
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Skipper Sanju Samson did a world of good for his chances ahead of the T20 World Cup team selection by hammering a 33-ball unbeaten 71 and overshadowing a similar effort by Lucknow Super Giants captain K.L Rahul (76 off 48 balls) as Rajasthan Royals romped to a seven-wicket victory in Match 44 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on Saturday. Samson, who struck his fourth half-century of IPL 2024 off 28 balls, shared an unbeaten 121-run partnership with Dhruv Jurel, who scored his maiden IPL half-century as Rajasthan Royals cruised to 199/3 in 19 overs in response to Lucknow Super Giants' 196/5 made possible by Rahuls superb innings and his 115-run partnership with Deepak Hooda (50). Samson, who had scores of 82*, 69, 68* before Saturday's superb knock, blasted seven boundaries and four sixes in another brilliant innings to help Rajasthan Royals recover from two quick wickets and with help from Jurel, who scored 52 not out off 34 balls, raised 121 runs for the fourth wicket partnership to guide RR to a comfortable victory at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium here. With this win, table toppers Rajasthan Royals moved up to 16 points from eight wins from nine matches, opening up a big six-point gap at the top of the table. LSG remained in fourth position with 10 points, the same as Kolkata Knight Riders (2nd), Sunrisers Hyderabad (3rd) and Delhi Capitals (5th). They have played nine matches while KKR and SRH have played eight matches each. DC are through with 10 matches so far. Chasing 197 for victory, Rajasthan Royals got off to a fine start with Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal raising 50 runs for the opening wicket partnership. Buttler struck 34 off 18 balls while Jaiswal managed 24 off the same number of balls. Both of them were untroubled by the LSG bowling, which lacked serious pace in the form of young tearaway Mayank Yadav, who was expected to recover from his injury and play this match. Buttler, who had blazed to an unbeaten 107 off 60 balls against KKR 10 days back, faced a couple of anxious moments against Matt Henry and Mohsin Khan, picked pace by hitting Henry for a big six, shuffling across and lapping it over the keeper. He struck a four and scored three off Henry followed by a boundary in the fifth over. He hit Yash Thakur for a four in the sixth over before the bowler returned to get revenge, castling the batter with a slower one. Jaiswal fell on the same score as RR slumped to 60/2 in the seventh over and when Riyan Parag followed him back into the dugout for 14 off 11 balls, Rajasthan Royals fell to 78/3 and the innings was looking to come apart. However, skipper Sanju Samson held the innings together and along with Dhruv Jurel raised an unbeaten 121-run partnership for the fourth wicket as Rajasthan Royals capitalised on some shoddy performance by LSG in the field. LSG grassed a couple of catches, failed to capitalise on a dreadful mix-up between Samson and Jurel to affect a runout and also misfielded on a couple of occasions. Rajasthan Royals had applied the brakes in the middle and death overs, but LSG could not do so with the ball as Sanju Samson finished the match with a flurry of shots, hitting Mohsin Khan for a big six after the bowler had failed to run him out at the non-striker's end. He followed that up with a six off the last ball of the over after he and Jurel scored a single each in between. In the 19th over, Samson hammered a four and a six off successive balls off Yash Thakur to finish the match and seal victory for RR. Samson had started slowly and waited for his chances before exploding into action. He came in at 60/1 and saw his team go down to 78/3, so his first seven shots were for singles. A four off veteran Amit Mishra was followed by a couple of boundaries against Thakur. Ravi Bishnoi was also mistreated as Samson hit him for back-to-back fours in the 16th over. A reverse-hit four off Krunal Pandya over point fielder was his best shot of the day before his power-hitting in the last couple of overs. Samson completed his half-century off 28 balls as he went after the bowling with 84 needed off 48 deliveries. Jurel was the more aggressive of the two Samson went berserk towards the end. In the 14th over, Jurel scythed, scooped and pulled Mohsin Khan for 4, 6, 4. Off the fourth ball of the over, Yash Thakur failed to time his jump and palmed the ball over at third man for a single. Jurel was dropped once again by Jurel off Mohsin Khan near the short-third region as the ball raced to the fence. Jurel completed his maiden IPL fifty with a single off Mohsin Khan, reaching the mark in 31 balls. Amit Mishra and Krunal Pandya were the best bowlers for LSG on the park on Saturday night as they fell short by a round 20 runs and then performed poorly in the field to further hamper their chances. Asked to bat first, KL Rahul blasted a 48-ball 76, reaching a cautious half-century off 31 balls, while Hooda scored a 31-ball 50 as LSG recovered from a precarious 11/2 in the second over to post a good score. LSG got off to a poor start as Quinton de Kock, after hitting back-to-back boundaries to Trent Boult in the first over, was cleaned up on the third ball by the left-handed New Zealand pacer with one that nipped back a bit and went past the opener's bat, which came down late, to crash into the stumps. Sandeep Sharma accounted for Marcus Stoinis on the last ball of the second over as the ball swung in and went past to disrupt the furniture, reducing LSG to 11/2 in two overs. However, LSG recovered well from the twin setbacks thanks to Rahul and Hooda as they raised 115 runs in quick time for the third wicket partnership. Rahul got his third half-century while Deepak Hooda got his first half-century in 19-odd matches. Rahul scooped, drove, pulled and swept superbly in an excellent rearguard knock, hitting eight fours and two sixes -- the only two sixes of the innings a far cry compared to the last couple of matches in which teams hit maximums in double figures. In contrast, RR batters hammered nine maximums. After a cautious start, Rahul opened up by hitting Boult for a four off an in-swinging yorker and was lucky to survive a ball from Ashwin that darted in, just managing to sweep it away to the boundary. The LSG captain continued to flourish, hitting back-to-back boundaries off Yuzvendra Chahal in the seventh over -- caressing a half-volley through covers and following it up with a sweep behind square and the spinner strayed to left. The 32-year-old right-handed batter hammered Avesh Khan for 21 in the eighth over, hitting his first six off the second delivery before hammering another six off a no-ball and following it up with a four off the free-hit. Just when it looked like he would reach the three-figure mark, Rahul got out as Avesh Khan got his revenge as Boult picked a simple catch at deep backward point. Hooda drove, cut, swept and used the switch-hit well to score an exact fifty, hitting Boult for boundaries off successive balls. His four off Chahal in the 12over was his best shot of the night as he hammered seven fours in his 31-ball 50. Rajasthan Royals pulled back things a bit in the death overs, conceding seven and six runs in the 18th and 19th overs before Ayush Badoni (18 not out) and Krunal Pandya (15*) scored 12 runs off the final over to ensure they reached a par score on this ground. Brief scores: Lucknow Super Giants 196/5 in 20 overs (K.L Rahul 76, Deepak Hoods 50; Sandeep Sharma 2-31) lost to Rajasthan Royals 199/3 in 19 overs (Jos Buttler 34, Sanju Samson 71 not out, Dhruv Jurel 52 not out; Amit Mishra 1-20, Marcus Stoinis 1-3) by seven wickets.

Rajasthan Royals Captain Sanju Samson Emphasizes Patience and Process Amidst T20 Errors
Rajasthan Royals Captain Sanju Samson Emphasizes Patience and Process Amidst T20 Errors Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson feels mistakes are part and parcel of T20 cricket and they will have to stick to their process despite enjoying a dream run in the ongoing Indian Premier League. Rajasthan beat Lucknow Super Giants on Saturday by seven wickets to take their points tally to 16 from nine matches. Former champions RR are enduring a dream season having registered eight wins and are perched at the top of the points table. ''We have been a little lucky as well. We have to stick to the right processes. Mistakes are supposed to happen in T20 cricket, and we reiterate to stick to the process. The results are coming our way, so it is clear that we are doing something right,'' said Samson in the post-match presentation ceremony. Samson, who was named the Player of the Match for his unbeaten 71 off 33 balls while chasing 197, lauded his bowlers for restricting LSG under the 200-run mark. ''There was purchase with the new ball and when the ball got old, it was a nice wicket to bat on. It was a very good team effort. The guys who come in and bowl the crucial overs, that is also important. They know what to do each ball, there is a lot of planning going on behind the scenes and we are doing well. ''At the start, and at the end (we bowled well). In the middle overs, they took the game a little away from us,'' he said. Samson also praised Dhruv Jurel for his unbeaten 52 off 34 balls as the wicketkeeper-batter finally regained his form. ''Form is temporary and batting at No 5 is the toughest job in T20 cricket. A youngster like him (Jurel), he has the composure as we have seen in Tests. We believed in him, he has been batting in the nets for one or two hours and we knew it was a matter of time (before he delivered). A disappointed LSG skipper KL Rahul, meanwhile, felt his side was about 20 runs short. ''We left about 20 runs behind. We didn't get an ideal start but with the partnership between me and Hooda (115 runs) had was great. In these sorts of games, the set batter had to score close to a hundred after getting to 50-60,'' Rahul said. ''We were 150 after about 15 overs, should have capitalised on it a bit more. It is clear the team with more sixes ends up winning. We did try to hit our sixes but today we had to change our approach after those two early wickets,'' he said. ''If Hooda (had) pushed on and scored 20 (runs) more, and I got 20 (runs) more then we'd finish around 220. That would have been the difference, that's the 20 runs we left behind.'' Rahul said it is important for batters to give extra cushion to bowlers in this IPL. ''We're seeing with every game how important it is to give the bowlers that extra cushion because they are under the pump. Everyone loves range hitting and hitting it all over the park, we are no different. It is part of the prep,'' he said. ''Our big hitters are Stoin (Marcus Stoinis) and (Nicholas) Pooran who can hit those big shots. The other guys like us try to pick our areas and time the shots better,'' he added.

IPL 2024: Sanju Samson, Dhruv Jurel's 121-run partnership help RR beat LSG by 7-wicket
IPL 2024: Sanju Samson, Dhruv Jurel's 121-run partnership help RR beat LSG by 7-wicket The unbeaten blistering 121-run partnership between Sanju Samson and Dhruv Jurel powered Rajasthan Royals (RR) to a 7-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Ekana Cricket Stadium on Saturday. RR captain Samson scored the highest for RR with an unbeaten 71 off 33 while Jurel played a blistering knock of 52 runs in 34 deliveries. LSG bowlers missed their mark and were further broken apart due to multiple dropped catches. Chasing a target of 197, openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Jos Buttler got Rajasthan Royals off to a flying start in the powerplay. LSG captain KL Rahul opted to stick to pace, as he brought Yash Thakur for the last over of powerplay and the bowler provided his team with a big breakthrough, dismissing the in-form Jos Buttler in his very first over. In the seventh over, RR lost both their openers as Marcus Stoinis dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal on his very first ball of the night. KL Rahul finally opted to make a shift to spin, as he brought Krunal Pandya into the attack and the bowler delivered an economical over, conceding 7 runs. The 41-year-old Amit Mishra announced his arrival in style, as he dismissed Ryan Parag and added further pressure on RR's run-chase. Dhruv Jurel showed some much-needed explosiveness at the crease, running an onslaught against Mohsin Khan, slamming three boundaries and one six. RR captain Sanju Samson slammed a half-century in 28 balls while Jurel continued his impressive form as he bagged his maiden IPL fifty in 31 balls. In the 19th over of the game, Samson and Jurel slammed a four and six to guide their team home with a 7-wicket victory against the home team. Earlier, Magnificent fifties from KL Rahul and Deepak Hooda guided LSG to 196/5 in 20. RR skipper Sanju Samson won the toss and elected to bowl at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. The hosts lost the first wicket only on the third ball of the innings as Quinton De Kock was dismissed after slamming two boundaries on the bowling of left-arm seamer Trent Boult. After De Kock's wicket, right-hand batter Marcus Stoinis came out to bat along with skipper KL Rahul. However, Stoinis went back without opening his account in the second over when the team score was 11. After Stoinis's dismissal, Deepak Hooda came out to the crease to bat along with Rahul. Both of them brought up the team's fifty in the seventh over. The LSG skipper brought up his half-century in the 10th over as he hit a boundary on the bowling of Chahal. In the 12th over, the other batter, Hooda also completed his fifty as he took a single on the bowling of Chahal. Hooda was dismissed on the bowling of Ravichandran Ashwin in the 13th over after scoring 50 from 31 balls with the help of seven boundaries. He, along with Rahul, built a partnership of 115 runs in 62 balls. After Hooda, left-hand batter Nicholas Pooran came out to the crease. Pooran was sent back to the pavilion after he scored 11 runs in as many balls. In the 18th over, at the score of 173, Rahul was sent back to the dressing room after he had scored 76 runs in 48 balls which were laced with eight boundaries and two maximums.

Royals Roar to Victory, Secure Play-off with 7-Wicket Triumph over Super Giants
Royals Roar to Victory, Secure Play-off with 7-Wicket Triumph over Super Giants Sanju Samson scored five runs less than his opposite number KL Rahul but his unbeaten 71 off 33 balls had five times more impact compared to Rahul's relatively sedate 48-ball-76 as Rajasthan Royals took a giant leap towards IPL play-offs by comfortably beating Lucknow Super Giants by seven wickets here on Saturday. While Rahul still is favourite to become Rishabh Pant's understudy as the second glovesman at the T20 World Cup, Samson did hit four classy sixes, including the winning one in a chase of 197, to keep himself in the discussion for that US bound flight. Samson and Jurel came together after the Royals had stumbled from a brisk start to hand the advantage to the home side, putting on a robust stand of 121 runs in just 62 balls stand for the unconquered fourth wicket to take their side over the line. Chasing a tricky 197 with LSG deploying seven bowlers including two leg-spinners, Rajasthan finished at 199 for three to win with an over to spare. On his part, the young Jurel finally discovered his to put behind a barren run, smacking five fours and two sixes to make a sturdy 52 not out off 34 balls. The win took top-placed Rajasthan to 16 points six clear from the second-best Kolkata Knight Riders and a step closer to become the first team to reach the playoffs in the 17th edition. The play-offs cut-off this yearis likely to be 18 points if one goes by the current mid-table muddle. LSG remained on fourth spot with 10 points in bag. Rajasthan openers Yashasvi Jaiswal (24) and Jos Buttler (34) knocked off 60 runs from the target unscathed, but their side went through a slump in the following overs while also losing three wickets in quick succession. It began with Buttler walking across his stumps to miss an angled full toss from Thakur, who knocked down the leg-stump for the first breakthrough. Marcus Stoinis bowled an innocuous delivery outside off to invite a free-flowing Jaiswal to go for it. The left-hander obliged but did not connect well, finding Bishnoi at deep point. LSGs plans to tie the Royals down with leg-spin became evident when the 41-year-old Amit Mishra came on as impact substitute and got the priced scalp of Riyan Parag (11) in his first over. Rajasthan slipped from 60 for no loss to 78/3 after nine, and this was when Jurel and Samson began their recovery work to put Rajasthan back on track again. Jurel and Samson began with a six and a four respectively off Mishra to push the leg-spinner on the backfoot and took 17 runs off Thakurs second over. Krunal Pandya (0/24) did well on his part to send down a few measly overs in between but RR were back on charge again when Mohsin Khan came on in the 14th over. Jurel hit the left-armer for 20 runs including three fours and a six in Mohsins third of the game and also enjoyed a reprieve when Thakur, placed at short third man, dropped a crucial catch when the RR batter was on 32. Bishnois introduction as late as in the 16th over had no impact whatsoever, with RR having grasped full control of the proceedings. The leg-spinner leaked another 16 runs as RR inched closer to the finish line. Earlier in the first half, Rahul (76 off 48 balls) dug deep with Deepak Hooda (50 off 31 balls) as Lucknow Super Giants managed a competitive 196/5 against Rajasthan Royals. Rahul and Hooda gave LSG a solid footing with a 62-ball 115-run stand for the third wicket after early blows, but the failure of others meant the hosts could not capitalise on the hard work by the two. Rahuls 48-ball 76 with eight fours and two sixes was his fourth fifty of the season while Hooda banished his poor string of scores to make his first big score this IPL.

IPL 2024: David Warner, Ishant Sharma To Miss DC's Clash Against KKR
Indian Premier League: Veteran Delhi Capitals duo David Warner and Ishant Sharma, who sat out the side's 10-run win over Mumbai Indians, are going to miss the upcoming clash against Kolkata Knight Riders on Monday. Ishant has been out of action after suffering a back spasm just five minutes before the toss of DC's clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad at its Arun Jaitley Stadium last week. On the other hand, Warner is nursing a finger injury suffered in DC's win over Lucknow Super Giants earlier this month. Both should be available for our next home game (on May 7 against Rajasthan Royals), said DC assistant coach Pravin Amre in the post-match press conference. Opener Prithvi Shaw missed out on playing in DC's win over MI on Saturday, with Abishek Porel promoted to open the batting alongside Jake Fraser-McGurk. On Shaw's absence, Amre said, 'he was not feeling well on arrival at the stadium, and him not feeling 100% fit meant he didn't feature in Saturday's game. With Saturday's ten-run win, DC are now in fifth place in the points table, with ten points from as many games. They have just a day off before playing against second-placed KKR at the Eden Gardens on Monday evening.

IPL 2024: Fifties by KL Rahul, Deepak Hooda take Lucknow Super Giants to 196/5 against Rajasthan Royals Magnificent fifties from KL Rahul and Deepak Hooda guided Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) to 196/5 in 20 overs against the table toppers Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the 44th fixture of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on Saturday. RR skipper Sanju Samson won the toss and elected to bowl at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. The hosts lost the first wicket only on the third ball of the innings as Quinton De Kock was dismissed after slamming two boundaries on the bowling of left-arm seamer Trent Boult. After De Kock's wicket, right-hand batter Marcus Stoinis came out to bat along with skipper KL Rahul. However, Stoinis went back without opening his account in the second over when the team score was 11. After Stoinis's dismissal, Deepak Hooda came out to the crease to bat along with Rahul. Both of them brought up the team's fifty in the seventh over. The LSG skipper brought up his half-century in the 10th over as he hit a boundary on the bowling of Chahal. In the 12th over, the other batter, Hooda also completed his fifty as he took a single on the bowling of Chahal. Hooda was dismissed on the bowling of Ravichandran Ashwin in the 13th over after scoring 50 from 31 balls with the help of seven boundaries. He, along with Rahul, built a partnership of 115 runs in 62 balls. After Hooda, left-hand batter Nicholas Pooran came out to the crease. Pooran was sent back to the pavilion after he scored 11 runs in as many balls. In the 18th over, at the score of 173, Rahul was sent back to the dressing room after he had scored 76 runs in 48 balls which were laced with eight boundaries and two maximums. After the completion of 20 overs, the hosts finished at 196/5. The pick of the bowlers for the Royals was Sandeep Sharma who picked two wickets in his spell of four overs while conceding 31 runs. One wicket each was grabbed by Trent Boult, Avesh Khan, and Ravichandran Ashwin respectively.

IPL-17: LSG vs RR | Rahul, Hooda fifties take Lucknow Super Giants to 196/5 against Rajasthan Royals
A little slow to pick at the start, Rahul and Hooda did well to make up the lost ground.
IPL 2024: KL Rahul, Hoods Hit Fifties As LSG Recover To Post 196/5 Against Royals
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: KL Rahul played a captain's knock and shared a 115-run partnership with Deepak Hooda, who too scored a fine half-century, as Lucknow Super Giants posted a par-score of 196/5 in 20 overs against table-toppers Rajasthan Royals in Match 44 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 here on Saturday. Rahul blasted a 48-ball 76, reaching a cautious half-century off 31 balls, while Hooda scored a 31-ball 50 as LSG recovered from a precarious 11/2 in the second over to post a good score at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow. Asked to bat first, LSG got off to a poor start as Quinton de Kock, after hitting back-to-back boundaries to Trent Boult in the first over, was cleaned up on the third ball by the left-handed New Zealand pacer with one that nipped back a bit and went past the opener's bat, which came down late, to crash into the stumps. Sandeep Sharma, who claimed a five-wicket haul a few days ago, accounted for Marcus Stoinis on the last ball of his first over as the ball landed at full length, swung in and went past to disrupt the furniture as the batter tried to drive without getting to the pitch of the ball. LSG were down to 11/2 in the second over. However, LSG recovered from the twin setbacks as skipper Rahul and Hooda raised 115 runs in quick time for the third wicket partnership. Rahul got his third half-century while Deepak Hooda got his first half-century in 19-odd matches. Rahul scooped, drove, pulled and swept superbly to hammer a brilliant 76 off 48 balls, hitting eight fours and two sixes -- the only two sixes of the innings a far cry compared to the last couple of matches in which teams hit maximums in double figures. After a cautious start, Rahul opened up by hitting Boult for a four off an in-swinging yorker and was lucky to survive a ball from Ashwin that darted in, just managing to sweep it away to the boundary. Rahul continued to flourish, hitting back-to-back boundaries off Yuzvendra Chahal in the seventh over -- caressing a half-volley through covers and following it up with a sweep behind square and the spinner strayed to left. The LSG skipper hammered Avesh Khan for 21 in the eighth over, hitting his first six off the second delivery before hammering another six off a no-ball and following it up with a four off the free hit. Just when it looked like he would reach the three-figure mark, Rahul got out as Avesh Khan got his revenge for the mistreatment he received from the LSG as Boult picked a simple catch at deep backward point. Hooda drove, cut, swept and used the switch-hit well to score an exact fifty, hitting Boult for boundaries off successive balls. His four off Chahal in the 12over was his best shot of the night as he hammered seven fours in his 31-ball 50. Rajasthan Royals pulled back things a bit in the death overs, conceding seven and six runs in the 18th and 19th overs before Ayush Badoni (18 not out) and Krunal Pandya (15*) scored 12 runs off the final over to ensure they reached a par score on this ground. Brief scores: Lucknow Super Giants 196/5 in 20 overs (K.L Rahul 76, Deepak Hoods 50; Sandeep Sharma 2-31) against Rajasthan Royals.

Jadeja's Versatility Impresses Michael Hussey
Jadeja's Versatility Impresses Michael Hussey Chennai Super Kings batting coach Michael Hussey opened up on Ravindra Jadeja's new role as a No 4 batter and backed him for his adaptability to play according to the situation. Jadeja, who is known for playing the finisher's role alongside MS Dhoni, is seen coming out to bat at number four this season, where he has had mixed success. ''He is playing a different role (batting at number four). He has been coming in very late in the last few years. He has done a good job so far at adapting to the situation and playing accordingly,'' Hussey said ahead of their match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. ''He is in a good frame of mind, hitting the ball well in the nets, and there is no concern. He played a quick innings in Lucknow, and his strength is being able to work the ball around the gaps, use his pace and run between the wickets, picking the right time to attack the right bowlers.'' CSK endured successive defeats in their last two matches, while the high-flying SRH too are coming off a loss against Royal Challengers Bangaluru. Conditions at Chepauk in the last meeting against Lucknow Super Giants were not ideal, with heavy dew playing a part in handing CSK its first home defeat of the season. ''In the last few games, the dew has been really challenging for the bowlers, taking them out of the game. But, we have always had good spinners, and the conditions here have also been friendly,'' Hussey said. The other night, the spinners found it very difficult to hold the ball, and they couldnt get spin on it. The ball was skidding nicely onto the bat, which made it really challenging. But again, there is no excuse it is pretty much the same for both teams, and we have to deal with it as best as we can. CSK's top-order batter Ajinkya Rahane has been dismissed for single digit scores in two of the last three games. But Hussey expressed his confidence in the 35-year-old Indian batter and said a calf niggle may have troubled him. ''We are 100 per cent backing Ajinkya Rahane, he is batting really well. He just got out a couple of times early, which can happen to anyone. ''He did have a niggle in his calf, which probably sent him back a little bit, but overall, we are very happy with what he has done.'' Shivam Dube will again be the guy to watch out for the Yellow Brigade, having been their second-highest run-scorer of the season. Hussey said it's about giving him the freedom to play aggressively and express himself. ''Our conversations have been about giving him the freedom to hit sixes and fours and dominate the bowling. ''We want to give him the trust that even if he misses out, that's the way we want him to play, which has helped him as he has gained confidence,'' ''We don't really talk about footwork and let him be clear in his mind, as he is playing his best when he is not thinking too much. ''He has got unique power and long levers. So, it's more about being nice and stable and using his long reach to clear the boundaries,'' he added.

IPL 2024: Samson Elects To Field As High-flying Rajasthan Royals Take On Lucknow Super Giants
Jos Buttler Sanju Samson: Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson elected to field first against Lucknow Super Giants in Match 44 of IPL 2024 at the Ekana Stadium here on Saturday. RR decided to go into the match with an unchanged playing XI with Samson saying that the season has been a bit different with the gap in between games and that that should help them while being on the road. Rajasthan Royals are perched at the top of the points table, with 14 points, for more than the next best. LSG are fourth with 10 points, the same as Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad. He claimed that they are following some good processes as a unit and are focussing on their strengths while being aware of their weaknesses. Home captain K.L. Rahul had no issue with batting first as he reckoned the wicket was pretty good, and that there has not been much dew at the venue, leading to an even contest across 40 overs. He said it was important to get off to a good start and put runs on the board now that they were batting first. He felt a score of 200-plus would be nice but conceded the dimensions of the ground do work in the bowler's favour and make the game more interesting. LSG too are going into the match with an unchanged side.

Allahabad High Court Grants Bail to Former MP Dhananjay Singh in Kidnapping Case
Lucknow: The Allahabad High Court granted bail to former MP Dhananjay Singh on Saturday in connection with a 2020 kidnapping and extortion case. However, the court refused his plea to suspend or stay the seven-year imprisonment sentence passed by a district court. While Singh will be released on bail following the high court's order, he remains ineligible to contest the election. In March 2020, the MP-MLA court in Jaunpur had sentenced Singh and his associate Santosh Vikram to seven years of rigorous imprisonment for the kidnapping and extortion of Namami Gange project manager Abhinav Singhal. Justice Sanjay Kumar Singh, after hearing the criminal appeal filed by Singh and his associate on April 24, reserved the order. The appeal was filed against the judgment passed by the special judge, Jaunpur MP/MLA, on March 6. Singh's wife, Srikala Reddy, is contesting elections from the Jaunpur parliamentary constituency on the Bahujan Samaj Party ticket. Singh was reportedly preparing to contest the Lok Sabha elections from the Jaunpur seat. However, his conviction rendered him ineligible to contest the election.

BJP's condition will worsen in remaining phases of LS polls: Akhilesh Yadav
LUCKNOW: The condition of the BJP will worsen in the remaining phases of the Lok Sabha polls, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav claimed on Saturday, a day after the second round of polling was held in 88 seats across 13 states. After the first phase of polling on April 19, Yadav in a statement had said that the BJP is in a very weak position in the ongoing elections while the INDIA bloc, of which the Samajwadi Party (SP) is a member, is on a strong wicket. In a post on X, he claimed that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has not got voters in the first two phases and, in the remaining phases, it will note even get booth agents. 10 , , , - pic.twitter.com/JrLlz75KCi Akhilesh Yadav (@yadavakhilesh) April 27, 2024 After the first two phases of voting, the condition of the BJP will be worse in the next phases, he said and claimed that people are ensuring the BJP's departure. Sharing a video clip of a news channel reporter speaking to a purported BJP booth agent, the SP chief said that after 10 years of lies by BJP leaders, a ooth agent of the BJP is speaking the truth about the party's poor condition. He is saying that the reason people are for not voting in the BJP's favour is because of inflation and unemployment, Yadav claimed. Voting in Uttar Pradesh -- that sends 80 members to the Lok Sabha -- was scheduled for all seven phases.

CSK Face Bruised SRH in Battle of Former Champions
CSK Face Bruised SRH in Battle of Former Champions Smarting from back-to-back losses, defending champion Chennai Super Kings will be desperate to return to winning ways when they face a formidable but bruised Sunrisers Hyderabad in their IPL match here on Sunday. CSK had a good start to the season under new skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad but they have been toppled by the Lucknow Super Giants twice in the last two games. It was an unfamiliar sight for the Yellow Brigade fans to see the Chepauk fortress being breached as LSG knocked down a target of 210 with ease, thanks to Marcus Stoinis' stunning hundred. With four wins and as many losses in eight games, CSK are currently at fifth spot, tied with eight points with Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans and will be keen to find their mojo back as things can quickly go south as the race to playoffs get heated up. Come Sunday, CSK will be up against third-ranked Sunrisers Hyderabad, who have twice broken the record of highest IPL total this season but are coming into the game following a failure of their ultra-batting approach. CSK's batting has hovered around skipper Gaikwad, who pulled off only his second IPL century the other day, and the in-form Shivam Dube, who once again impressed with yet another fifty. While Ravindra Jadeja too chipped in with the bat, the inconsistent form of top-order is a problem. Both Rachin Ravindra and Dary Mitchell's lack of runs is a concern and it has forced CSK to shuffle their batting order. Considering their bowling, the hosts had to toil hard against LSG, given the unexpectedly huge amount of dew at Chepauk that took their spinners out of the game and the visitors made full advantage of it during their 213-run chase. While the CSK pacers managed to capture the four LSG wickets to fell, the spinners struggled to grip the ball, whereas the constant misfields did not help them either. A high-flying SRH, on the other hand, were brought to the ground by RCB when they suffered only their third defeat of the season at home by 35 runs on Thursday. However, it is unlikely to deter the SRH batters who would fancy their chances against an inconsistent CSK. Against RCB, SRH's top and middle-order failed collectively while chasing, forcing head coach Daniel Vettori to admit that the idea of going all out with the bat in the second innings might not be the right thing to do. There is unlikely to be any shuffling in the visiting batting order, but Aiden Markram might need to step up, having been dismissed in singles figures in the last two contests. In bowling, senior seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar is the only one who could be at the receiving end, having managed to claim just a wicket in the last three fixtures. With the likes of Umran Malik, Fazalhaq Farooqi and Akash Singh waiting in the wings, SRH may think of given a chance, especially to the Jammu pacer, who has the ability to bowl above 150 kmph. Given that SRH won four of their last five games this season while defending, they would love to bat first but both teams will also keep an eye on the unpredictable dew factor.
