Adds that playing according to the situation is very important and it is all about batting well when the new ball is moving at the start.

Stayed tuned for the interviews...

Earlier, Rajasthan's choice to bat first turned out to be correct as they sped away to a brilliant start, despite losing Jos Buttler cheaply. Sanju Samson and Yashasvi Jaiswal joined forces for an excellent partnership and Devdutt Padikkal was incredible with his quickfire knock. They lost the plot a bit at the backend and it appeared that they were 15-20 runs short, but eventually, their bowlers turned on the heat and defended the total efficiently.

The chase started on the wrong note for Lucknow as Trent Boult pegged them back with his double strike. It was a body blow for the chasing team when they lost KL Rahul as well, and it was tough going for them. After that, Hooda and Krunal combined for a 65-run stand to keep Lucknow in the match, but once this stand was broken, the chase fell flat on its face.

A clinical win for Rajasthan, and they go level on points with Lucknow. They showed just the correct energy on the field, picked wickets, built pressure and didn't let the intensity drop. It's a really good victory for them, and they are now number 2 on the table due to a superior NRR.

19.6 overs (1 Run) Prasidh comes 'round the wicket for the last ball of the innings and fires in a yorker, around off. Mohsin Khan digs it out towards covers and manages only a single. Rajasthan win by 24 runs!

19.1 overs (6 Runs) SIX! A low full toss, around off. Stoinis stays low in his crease and powers it over the long off fence for a biggie.

Prasidh Krishna to bowl the final over. 34 needed and Marcus Stoinis will be on strike.

Parag there, moves quickly to his right, puts a dive in front and grabs the ball. He begins his celebration but the umpires take it upstairs. The replays show that the ball clearly bounced before it went into Parag's palms. A single taken and Stoinis won't be on strike.

Riyan Parag has taken a stunning catch in the deep. It was dying in front of him and he dived to grab it. He is claiming the catch and celebrating. The umpires though have decided to check it upstairs. Meanwhile, Obed McCoy is getting his right leg treated. Right then, the replays show that it has touched the ground before going into the hands.

18.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! A slower ball into the wicket, outside off. Stoinis stays back and heaves it wide of the deep mid-wicket fielder to bag a boundary.

Samson has a word with his bowler.

18.2 overs (1 Run) Wide! A slower ball, but way wide outside off, Stoinis leaves it alone. Wided!

Obed McCoy is down on the ground and James Neesham is giving him some stretching on the right leg. Perhaps, cramps. The physio rushes out but then returns as Obed McCoy is back on his feet.

18.1 overs (1 Run) A slower ball, full and on middle. Khan pushes it to long on for a single.

17.6 overs (6 Runs) SIX! BOOM! Finally, Marcus Stoinis gets hold of one! This is tossed up, in the slot, around middle. Stoinis gets down and sends it sailing over long on for a biggie. 49 runs needed off 12 balls.

17.1 overs (0 Run) A flatter ball, on middle. Stoinis drags it to deep mid-wicket but doesn't take a run.

Mohsin Khan is the new batter. 59 needed off 18 balls and expect Marcus Stoinis to take the maximum strike from here. Yuzvendra Chahal to bowl...

16.6 overs (0 Run) OUT! BOWLED! Another one bites the dust! A length ball, around middle. Chameera stays back and has a wild swing at it. He misses and the ball crashes onto the middle pole. Delight for McCoy and Rajasthan are all over Lucknow at the moment.

16.5 overs (0 Run) A yorker-length ball, around off. Chameera digs it out to the right of the bowler. McCoy moves there quickly and stops the ball.

Dushmantha Chameera walks in next.

16.4 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! McCoy wins the battle of the West Indians and Lucknow slip further! A full ball, outside off. Holder sits back and looks to drive it through the line. Although, the ball goes off the outside edge towards the keeper and Sanju Samson makes no mistake.

Jason Holder is the new batter. 63 needed off 24 balls. Also, Obed McCoy is back into the attack.

15.6 overs (0 Run) OUT! STUMPED! Excellent bowling from Chahal and this is a massive wicket for Rajasthan! Chahal bowls it slower through the air, on a length, around middle. Hooda skips down the track and looks to heave it away. However, he only manages a thick inside edge, onto his pad and the ball rolls towards the keeper. Sanju Samson is hurried there as the ball slips from his grasp and touches the stumps. The bails don't come off though. Now Samson picks up the ball and tries to disturb the stumps again but in the process, he loses the ball. Sanju Samson wants to be very sure, so he picks up the ball and uproots one stump. Deepak Hooda never tried to return during that period. The third umpire finds everything fine and it's a body blow to Lucknow's chances.

What happened there? Deepak Hooda is stumped but the third umpire is referred just to make sure that Sanju Samson has broken the stumps cleanly, with the ball in his hands.

15.5 overs (1 Run) A quicker ball, into the surface, on off. Stoinis flat-bats it towards long on for a run.

15.4 overs (1 Run) Floated, full and on off. Hooda mistimes his slog-sweep towards deep mid-wicket for only a single.

15.3 overs (2 Runs) Quicker through the air, on a length, around middle. Hooda nudges it to the leg side and comes back for the second run. Good running between the wickets.

15.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Cut away! Short and outside off. Hooda sits back and cuts it hard, past the backward point fielder for a boundary.

15.1 overs (0 Run) Hooda skips down so Chahal serves a quicker ball, around middle. Hooda keeps it out.
