Lucknow Super Giants captain Rishabh Pant has won the toss and elected to bowl first against the Rajasthan Royals in Match 32 of the Indian Premier League 2026.

Toss Decision – Captain’s Comments & Reasoning

“We will bowl first. We have been playing in these conditions and still figuring out what our best combination is. We want to put them under pressure and chase the total.

RR skipper Riyan Parag wanted to lose the toss.

“It was confused so I wanted to lose the toss. The pitch tends to get slow in the second innings. Batting first is good. We have batted well so far, and there is a need to avoid small errors. We will have to play good cricket for 40 overs,” he said.
