Ravindra Jadeja’s unbeaten 43 and Jofra Archer’s brilliant 3-20 powered Rajasthan Royals to a commanding 40-run win over Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2026.
RR posted 159/6, with Jadeja anchoring the innings alongside Shubham Dubey. In reply, LSG collapsed to 119 all out, suffering their fourth straight defeat. Archer struck early blows, while Nandre Burger and Brijesh Sharma chipped in with two wickets each. Mitchell Marsh fought a lone battle with 55, but lacked support as wickets fell regularly.
RR’s disciplined bowling and sharp fielding ensured they defended the lowest total of the season, lifting them to second in the points table with a clinical all-round display.
