Rajasthan chased down the target in 19.1 overs.
However, LSG got off to a flying start while batting first, with Mitchell Marsh smashing 96 runs off just 57 balls and Josh Inglis contributing a quickfire 60 off just 29 balls. In the bowling department, LSG didn't make any significant impact. Akash Singh and Mohsin were the pick of the bowlers with one wicket each.

On the other hand, the Punjab Kings suffered a 23-run defeat against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their last match. Batting first, Bengaluru set a good target of 222 runs; in response, Punjab managed to score only 199. While chasing the target, Punjab did not get off to a good start as their top order collapsed.
