Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will meet each other in the 36th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) season on Saturday, April 19th. The thrilling contest will take place at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur and is scheduled to start at 7:30 PM IST.

RR, reeling from three losses on the trot and just two wins in the first half of the tournament, desperately needs a turnaround to stay alive in the top-four race. On the other hand LSG, despite early success with four wins, slipped to fifth after their third defeat earlier. Coming into this match, both the sides eye two crucial points to start the second half on a high.

As another high-stake contest awaits from Jaipur, here are the top three captain and vice-captain choices for RR vs LSG Match 36 of IPL 2025.

3. Mitchell Marsh

Why Will Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Mitchell Marsh stands out as a top fantasy pick for LSG’s upcoming clash against RR. The Australian opener has amassed 295 runs in six innings at an impressive average of 49.2 and a strike rate of 171.5.

He is currently the third highest run scorer in the league and has crossed 50 four times in six games. Notably, three of his four half-centuries came in three away games of LSG, showcasing his brilliant form with the bat away from home.

2. Yashasvi Jaiswal

Why Will Yashasvi Jaiswal Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Yashasvi Jaiswal will be a brilliant fantasy pick for this match. The young left-handed opener has been a consistent performer for RR in the recent past. Though he had a slow start this season, he has regained form at the right time.

He is currently RR’s top run-scorer with 233 runs in seven games and has earned maximum fantasy points for RR so far this season (437). Besides, he has scored three half-centuries in his last four outings, making him a strong contender for fantasy points in this clash.

1. Nicholas Pooran

Why Will Nicholas Pooran Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

Nicholas Pooran has set the stage on fire in this year's IPL. The explosive Trinidadian has been one of the most consistent performers this season and will undoubtedly start as one of the top captain and vice-captain choices in the forthcoming RR vs LSG fixture.

Pooran is currently the highest run scorer in the league as he has scored 357 runs at an average of 59.50 and at a strike-rate of 208.77 strike-rate, including four half-centuries. Moreover, he has earned 801 fantasy points per in total this season which is by far the most for any player in IPL 2024.
