"This is for you PAPA". Tamaru sapnu aaje puru thayu cricketer motu banine batavyu (Today your dream has come true; I have shown [everyone] by becoming a great cricketer)," reads the note.

For the second wicket, Urvil forged an 81-run stand from just 34 balls with Ruturaj Gaikwad.

Urvil, who made his IPL debut in 2025 against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), has played seven matches in the IPL and has scored 178 runs at a strike-rate of 225.32.

After being asked to bat first, Lucknow Super Giants posted 203/8 on the board on the back of a 33-ball 85 from Josh Inglis and an unbeaten 43 from Shahbaz Ahmed.

At the time of writing this report, Chennai Super Kings were 157/3 in the 15th over with Kartik Sharma (14*) batting with Dewald Brevis (6*).
