RR Playing XI vs LSG: IPL 2022 Live Updates – It’s baffling and quite puzzling to understand why would a team bench one of the experienced and effective players for someone who has repeatedly failed. But Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals continue to surprise. Riyan Parag, who has a disastrous IPL record with both bat and the ball continues to get the backing while James Neesham warms the bench.

Against a strong Lucknow Super Giants side, RR will need their best XI and Riyan Parag clearly doesn’t fit into the system. So far, Riyan Parag has scored 12 and 5 in three games while he has no scalps. Against MI, he conceded 11 off 1 over while against SRH, he conceded 14 off just an over. His records in the past two seasons do not justify his selection.
James Neesham brings with him a reputation of hitting big in the death overs and also will lend a good hand in the bowling department. However, considering it is Rajasthan Royals and given their good run of form, it is likely that there will be no change.
Parag is expected to remain in the playing XI. That means, James Neesham, despite being more deserving will have to warm the bench.

The inaugural IPL edition winners arguably have one of the strongest squad in their IPL history and their biggest strength is the performance of Englishman Jos Buttler. Buttler has given terrific starts for the Royals and is currently the only centurion in this edition of the league. He also leads the maximum sixes table and has been the main man for Sanju Samson.
Apart from him, there are also other batsmen like Shimron Hetmyer, Devdutt Padikkal and the skipper himself, who have given notable contributions so far. Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal is the only weak link among the batters. But the team has confidence in him and he is expected to get many more chances.
