CSK vs LSG Highlights, IPL 2024: Marcus Stoinis' Ton Helps Lucknow Beat Chennai By 6 Wickets
CSK vs LSG Highlights, IPL 2024: Marcus Stoins' ton outshone Ruturaj Gaikwad's efforts as LSG beat CSK by 6 wickets and 3 balls remaining.
Stoinis now has the distinction of having the highest score in an IPL run-chase. His 124* off 63 will be part of IPL follkore forever. Nicholas Pooran's 34 off 15 and Deepak Hooda's 17* off 6 also deserve a mention. Matheesha Pathirana (2/35 off his 4 overs), Mustafizur Rahman (1/51 off 3.3 overs) and Deepak Chahar (1/11 off 2 overs) were the wicket-takers for CSK but the bowling effort wasn't enough to defend 210 which meant Gaikwad's hundred went in vain. That's it from our coverage of this game. Thank you and good night.
LSG win by 6 wickets and it's that man Stoinis who finishes with 124* off 63 balls who has been the chief architect of this Lucknow win. LSG win with 3 balls to spare.
FOUR MORE and it's a no ball. So surely the game in the pocket now for LSG.
Six off the first ball and then four. 7 needed off 4 balls now. Stoinis doing all the damage.
A couple to finish the 19th over. That makes it 17 runs to win off the last over. Mustafizur will have the ball in hand.
19 needed off 7 now with that dot.
DOwn The Ground For FOUR for Hooda off the next ball. LSG need 19 runs from 8 balls.
Chahar the culprit as an edge off the bat off Hooda goes for four which should have been stopped as he was stationed at the third man who was kept fine, for that very reason.
LSG need 32 from 12 and it's FOUR off the first ball itself. Pathirana the bowler.
15 runs coming from the 18th over as Hooda finishes the over with a six. LSG- 179/4 after 18 overs.
56-Ball Century For Stoinis. Gets there with a couple. He holds the key if LSG are to chase it down from here.
Stoinis smashes a six to move to 98. LSG now 170/4.
LSG need 47 runs to win from 18 balls. LSG- 164/4 after 17 overs. Mustafizur with the ball in hand.
Deepak Hooda is the new batter in for LSG.
Critical breakthrough for CSK as Pathirana gets rid of the danger man Pooran. That ball got all elevation and no distance. Didn't middle it at all and Shardul Thakur, coming in from long-off took a good catch. LSG- 158/4 after 16.3 Overs.
20 runs coming off the over. Pooran smashes SIX, FOUR, SIX off the first three balls. LSG need 54 runs in 24 balls now. Anybody's game from here. Shardul Thakur was the bowler and he has gone for 42 in his first three overs.
While we away, LSG have made a game out of this and how. At the end of the 15-over mark, LSG- 137/3. Marcus Stoinis- 86* off 47, Nicholas Pooran- 15* off 9. Mustafizur Rahman (1/17 off 2), Matheesha Pathirana (1/14 off his 2 overs).
Rahman strikes. He gets the better of Rahul who falls for 16 off 14. Tries to go over the in-field but only manages to get it as far as Gaikwad at the edge of the circle at the extra-cover region. LSG- 33/2 after4.4 Overs.
Mustafizur Rahman into the attack and concedes a boundary first ball. It's Rahul who finds the fence.
Deshpande Continues. 8 runs off his second over with Stoinis finding yet another boundary in his innings. LSG- 29/1 after 4 overs.
Two Boundaries Off The Over then. It's Stoinis in the business for LSG. 10 runs off Chahar's second. LSG- 21/1 after 3 overs.
First six off the run chase. In fact, it's the first boundary. It's the off the bat of KL Rahul against Deshpande. LSG- 11/1 after 2 overs. 10 runs come off the second.
Deshpande From the other end for CSK.
Marcus Stoinis in at 3. He joins KL Rahul.

Ruturaj Gaikwad- 108* off 60 the star of the CSK innings, not to forget the innings from Dube worth 66 off 27- an effort which saw him smash 7 maximums. 3 sixes from Gaikwad and much to the delight of crowd, Dhoni finishing with 4* off 1. LSG need 211 to win. Yash Thakur (1/47 off 4), Mohsin Khan (1/50 off 4) and Matt Henry (1/28 off 4) the wicket-takers for the visitors but now they need their batters to get the job done for the team.
DHONI FINISHES OFF IN STYLE. Not a six but a boundary to end the CSK innings. Chennai finish at 210/4.
Dube gets run out, trying to steal a run. CSK- 205/4 after 19.4 Overs. TIME FOR MS DHONI! Dube out for 66 off 27

Bishnoi Makes A Mess Of A Catch as Gaikwad survives and gets a boundary on the on side. More runs for CSK and Gaikwad.
100 For Ruturaj Gaikwad. What a knock this has been from the CSK captain. SIX and a FOUR off back-to-back balls to get to the landmark. Reaches there off 56 balls. Second hundred in IPL cricket for Gaikwad.
Thakur Will Bowl Out now. Gaikwad into the 90s.

Shivam Dube new man in for CSK.
Jadeja has to walk back. It's a slower bouncer which he tries to pull but only manages a glove on it. Jadeja wasn't looking at his best either as he departs for 17 off 19. CSK- 101/3 after 11.5 Overs.
Mohsin back for a second over.
