Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) had something to smile about on Friday night when they beat the Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Still placed at bottom of the points table, LSG took their revenge on CSK despite the Yellow Army scoring 188 in the first innings. Rishabh Pant’s men, however, were superb on the field. However, Pant has been fined by the BCCI due to slow over-rate.
IPL’s media advisory read:
“Rishabh Pant, Captain, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), has been fined after his team maintained a slow over-rate during Match No. 59 of TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow on Friday.”
