Sanju Samson and Dhruv Jurel fifties helped Rajasthan Royals beat Lucknow Super Giants by 7 wickets in their IPL 2024 game at Ekana Cricket Stadium.

The duo stitched unbeaten 121-run stand for the fourth wicket - the highest for RR for fourth wicket in IPL. Chasing 197, RR reached home in the penultimate over.

Earlier, skipper KL Rahul hit a 48-ball 76 while Deepak Hooda made 50 off 31 balls to guide LSG to a decent 196-5. Sent into bat, LSG rode on 115-run third-wicket stand between Rahul and Hooda to put up a fighting total.

Sandeep Sharma was the most successful bowler for RR, returning with figures of 2/31.
