CSK vs LSG IPL 2026 Live Score: Lucknow Super Giants 77/1 (5.1 overs) vs Chennai Super Kings

What a start this is for Jos Inglis. While Marsh is still reeling on 10, Inglish has already got to 62. Every shot he has played has gone to the boundary. There is not a lot Chennai has done wrong, but Inglis' batting has been top-notch. He is racing away here in this power play, and Lucknow will be wondering where he has been all this season. Chennai needs to look for answers. They have tried all three of their power-play options, but none have shown any results so far. Anshul Kamboj has come to bowl his second over and his picked up the wicket of Mitchell Marsh.

CSK vs LSG IPL 2026 Live Score: Lucknow Super Giants 48/0 (3.2 overs) vs Chennai Super Kings

Jos Inglis has got a flyer here. He is playing sublime T20 shots. He is known to play these; however, the league did not have his kind of batter this year. Glenn Maxwell comes close, but he was unsold in the auction. He is scooping reverses, and in no time Chennai are scratching their head. With the steady evening breeze across, there is some swing on offer for the new ball bowlers but Inglis has been so efficient with his batting that moment has been negated. Meanwhile, Marsh from the other end is a spectator in this partnership.

CSK vs LSG IPL 2026 Live Score: Lucknow Super Giants 17/0 (1.3 overs) vs Chennai Super Kings

Hosein has taken the new ball, but Jos Inglis had all the answers for Hosein's deliveries when he bowled it fuller. The batter hit him over his head, and when short, he swatted one through mid-wicket, and in the middle of those, he played a nice sweep through the square-leg boundary. Winning the toss and opting to bowl first, Ruturaj Gaikwad wants to pick up a few early wickets here in the middle. Both Mitchell Marsh and Jos Inglis are quite dangerous players; they can take the game away in the power play if their wickets are not taken early.

CSK vs LSG IPL 2026 Live Score: Le's go!

It is scorching here in Chennai. It does take a brave decision to bowl first; however, the last time there was a noon game at this venue, the wicket did misbehave quite a bit, and Ruturaj Gaikwad will be hoping it will be the same today. LSG openers Jos Inglis and Mitchell Marsh in the middle.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: What did Rishabh Pant say ahead of game

We would have bowled first as well. We're definitely trying to look at each and every match from here. But at the same time, we've got to be consistent and look to play good cricket. I think just looking to play good cricket as of now. We had our moments. We had our chances in a lot of games but we couldn't finish it up . And that's the learning for us - as we move forward in the tournament, that's the only thing, like I said in Mumbai that we're going to give our 200% regardless of every match. And we're trying to do that. We have two changes in the team. Josh Inglis comes in because he was injured in the last game, and Avesh comes in for Mayank.

May 10, 2026 03:14 PM IST
CSK vs LSG Live Score: What did Ruturaj Gaikwad say at toss?

We're going to bowl first. The simple reason, the wicket has been covered for a while and there was a rain around as well, so nothing special. (Does the pitch play differently in day matches?) Yes, it does play differently. The other day game I thought it played too much differently than what we had expected. But I think our job is to adapt quickly as possible and try and do the rest. Bowling first, we will try and assess the couple of overs and then after that look to restrict them as soon as possible. (Mood in the dressing room) Yes, it's pretty much positive how the last 7-8 games have gone for us. To turn it around after the first three games that we lost, it's a commendable effort from everyone. It is just that everyone is really positive. Everyone is really eager to turn it around and just try and keep it just as simple as possible. We are playing with the same team.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: What did Sridharan Sriram say ahead of game

I think the last few days in the IPL have taught us that winning and losing are just parts of the game. CSK's speciality is that regardless of the result, the team atmosphere and environment remain the same. We stay relaxed, but continue to work hard. We have learned a lot. The season started a bit slowly for us, but we’ve picked up momentum since then. As we head into the latter part of the tournament, I feel we are heading in the right direction. We are hitting our peak at the perfect time. Every team in the IPL is a challenge; they all bring their own unique threats. We have to be ready for every game and stay fully prepared. He has learned and improved immensely. You can see a significant difference between his approach in the first game compared to now. He’s getting better with every match, and the more time he spends in the role, the better he will become. Injuries are unfortunately a part of the game. The great thing is that our bench strength has been fantastic, the backup players have stepped up and delivered. So far, so good. We take it one game at a time. The road ahead is always about the next immediate challenge. Slow and steady is the way forward.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: What did Aiden Markram say ahead of game

Everything is going well, thanks. We’re just cracking on; you eventually find that rhythm and routine. It was great to get a win the other evening—it really boosted morale in the dressing room. Hopefully, we can back that up with another strong performance today. I think it depends on your specific role. My goal is to maximize scoring and understand my position in the middle. In this format, the requirements can change from ball to ball or over to over, and you have to be aware of that. If you’re in the middle order, you have to be quite fluid to ensure you complete the job for the team. The tricky thing is that shots that work at the top can often get you caught in the middle overs. Personally, I try to look for more space toward the back end of my innings and find unique ways to find gaps through the middle. Everyone’s approach is a bit different—some guys like to stay in the crease and find gaps, others like to use their feet. For me, it's about hitting those pockets and running hard. I’ve always said I’m happy to be fluid and play whatever role is required. Recently, I’ve spent more time at the top, so right now, I’m probably more accustomed to that. However, I’ve played a lot in the middle order in the past as well. I’m currently revisiting those middle-order structures and plans to ensure effective execution. Look, you’d much rather be on the field playing than missing out, so I see it through that lens. Whatever the role, you just try to give it a crack and play according to your strengths. I try not to overthink it; while the roles differ, they’re all challenges I’m excited to take on. Thank you.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Ashwin on Akeal Hossein

“For me, the team utilising Akeal Hossein has been kind of strange to understand. But I can eventually say with firmness that there is some theory behind that. So when they left him out of the SRH game, they had clearly.. We can say whatever we want. Form bowler, left arm spinner against left hander, you can still back them. But the team is clearly telling everybody that we are not going to use the left arm spinner inside the power play if there are going to be left handers facing them inside the power play. The moment they found two right-handers in the form of Pathum Nissanka and KL Rahul in Delhi, they play. So they are clear, if they find a right matchup, they will play him,” Ashwin added.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Ashwin on CSK

“Chennai Super Kings are going to play two games against Lucknow Super Giants. Let’s not make the mistake of saying this ahead of time. LSG are no pushovers but in case they (Chennai) beat LSG in both those games come May 15, I don’t see a reason Chennai would not qualify. The point is If they win these two by 15th, they would have four on the bounce, right. And there is no reason why they wouldn’t win two more on the bounce,” said Ashwin while speaking with ESPNCricinfo.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Playoff race and Noor's role

CSK need to win at least three of their four remaining fixtures to make the playoffs. The surfaces are tiring, scoring rates are dipping, conditions are shifting. On Sunday at Chepauk, under covers after unseasonal rain, they face Lucknow Super Giants. The pitch will do something. Dhoni will stand behind the nets one more time before the game. Noor will run in at a diagonal, hips rotating, leg-break loaded. He knows what to do with it now.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Noor Ahmad on role of Rashid Khan

"Whenever I have questions, or want to chat, or need to share with someone, Rashid is the first person for me to go to," Noor has said in the past. "I try not to think too much about bowling, but whenever I have something that I must share, I share with him."

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Sriram on change in Noor's action

Sriram describes what changed. "His rhythm is pretty good. He's sorted his run-up yards. He's more consistent with his run-up speeds. He's putting more revs on the ball and he's bowling more percentage of leg-spins. He has made some minor adjustments and that's something working for him really well. And he's attacking the stumps a lot more.”

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Sriram on Noor's improvement

"MS had a long chat with him in one of the practice sessions, getting his leg-break to go. I think it was very helpful for him," Sriram said.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Noor's turn in form

Noor arrived in Chennai not in the best of form. He had gone nearly three months without a wicket. The problem had a name — the same problem that had surfaced in 2021, when an arm injury forced him to rely excessively on his googly because bowling leg-breaks caused pain. Five years on, the injury was gone but the habit had stayed. Over-exposure to T20 cricket through a year of globe-trotting had done the same damage more slowly. The googly had become the stock delivery. And when the googly is your stock delivery, you stop attacking the stumps. You offer width. Batsmen find the arc and swing through it.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Sanju Samson on Ruturaj Gaikwad

“I have done it for another team for five years for another team. So, he suddenly invited me to play on his team. He has immense confidence in himself as a cricketer and as a person to take actions like this. So these types of actions do attract me. Nowadays, people talk a lot like I will do this, I will do that, but more than talk, actions count much more," he added.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Sanju Samson on Ruturaj Gaikwad

“Rutu is honestly a very nice, a very different kind of an Indian cricketing superstar. He is a superstar. He is leading one of the biggest franchises. But he doesn't behave like a normal superstar. He may not sound or behave like a confident guy, but I feel he is the most assured and confident cricketer in the Indian cricket circle. Any other person at his level, he just captained a franchise for one year,” said Samson.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Samson on Malyalis working in Chennai

"You go there, and you try to prove your worth. You try to behave the way you are, perform at your maximum, and from there you take on. And then there is something else, too. A lot of Malayalis work in Chennai. A lot of Malayalis work in Dubai. The reason you are picking Malayalis is that they will give their life to repay the trust. CSK have trusted me and invited me here. I am ready to give my everything here,” Samson added.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Sanju Samson on CSK captaincy

"No. I already had a team. I already had a place. I wanted to come out of there and join another team. So in that transaction, you can't actually have demands. Honestly, you are trying to get into a new home. When you're trying to get into a new home, you don't go there with demands, is what I have learned to be very honest," Samson told former India cricket Abhinav Mukund in the latest podcast episode.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Bharat Arun on Prince Yadav

"Last year he showed glimpses of what he could achieve. So, actually this year during the camps that we had, we discussed his strengths. Under pressure, sometimes a bowler goes blank. But under pressure, the one who is confident of executing his strengths is going to be most successful in execution."
