Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) got a perfect revenge on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) after the Rishabh Pant's men secured a comfortable seven-wicket victory at the Ekana Stadium on Tuesday in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). CSK had defeated LSG in their previous IPL 2026 encounter at Chepauk a few days ago.

Chasing 188 on a good batting wicket, Mitchell Marsh laid the platform for LSG with a 38-ball 90 and a 135-run stand for the opening wicket alongside Josh Inglis. Although LSG lost both Inglis and Marsh in quick succession, Nicolas Pooran finished the game with four consecutive sixes in 16.4 overs.

While LSG's win didn't shake the IPL 2026 points table that much, but it certainly dented CSK's playoff aspirations as well as help some other teams along the way. The win against CSK was LSG's fourth and stayed last in standings, Ruturaj Gaikwad's side dropped a place to sixth.

Both Rajasthan Royals take the fifth spot after CSK's loss. Both Rajasthan Royals and CSK are on 12 points each, but the Rajasthan-based franchise take the fifth spot due to a better net run rate.
