CSK vs LSG Live: Slogging time

6 overs to go and CSK are nowhere close to a competitive total. However, with Shivam Dube, Moeen Ali and MS Dhoni in their ranks along with the in-form Ruturaj Gaikwad, this is the time for them to accelerate. 

CSK 119/3 after 14 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Dube power

Shivam Dube has made a name for himself as a power hitter and the left-hander did not disappoint as he begins with a massive six. Another boundary in the over and this is the knock that can take CSK to 200.

CSK 111/3 after 13 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Jadeja departs

A slow bouncer from Mohsin Khan and Ravindra Jadeja made a complete mess of it. The faintest of touches and an easy catch for KL Rahul. Big wicket for LSG but it is Shivam Dube who came out to bat for CSK.

CSK 101/3 after 11.5 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Superb Ruturaj

A strike rate over 184 without a single six – This has been special from Ruturaj Gaikwad. A masterclass of how to play without taking risks and he can turn this into a big hundred!

CSK 98/2 after 11.2 overs

CSK vs LSG Live: CSK’s move works

The move to send Ravindra Jadeja at No. 4 has worked for CSK as he has stitched together a solid partnership with Gaikwad. This has been a good phase for the team and this provides a perfect foundation for CSK’s explosive batters to play their natural shots.

CSK 85/2 after 10 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Fifty for Ruturaj

Haf-century for Ruturaj Gaikwad and he needed just 28 runs to bring up the half-century. A good innings from the CSK skipper but he needs to build on it and if he can stay at the crease till atleast the 15th over, CSK will surely be looking at a big total.

CSK 74/2 after 9 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Quiet period

This is the quiet period of the match with the spinners keeping it tight for LSG and CSK batters not looking for huge shots. However, they will have to show some intent when it comes to playing shots because a big total will be needed in this game.

CSK 66/2 after 8 overs

CSK vs LSG Live: Jadeja’s new role

Ravindra Jadeja did get a half-century earlier in IPL 2024 but No. 4 is a brand new role for the all-rounder. It seems like CSK are looking to keep Shivam Dube for the later overs and Jadeja showed promise as he slammed Bishnoi for a commanding boundary down the ground.

CSK 56/2 after 7 overs

CSK vs LSG Live: 2nd wicket down

Chennai Super Kings lost their second wicket and it is the dangerous Daryl Mitchell. A loose shot off Yash Thakur and Deepak Hooda pulled off a good catch at mid-wicket. Ravindra Jadeja is the new batter for CSK.

CSK 49/2 after 5.2 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Ruturaj on song

Ruturaj Gaikwad is looking in excellent touch as he slammed Matt Henry for a couple of boundaries. After the dismissal of Rahane, these two batters have controlled the innings brilliantly and they can end the powerplay on a high.

CSK 48/1 after 5 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Commentators not happy

The commentators are not happy with LSG’s plan to introduce Ravi Bishnoi in the powerplay and CSK batters are finding it very easy to hit him for boundaries. Even KL Rahul seemed upset as he was hit for a boundary.

CSK 37/1 after 4 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Slow but steady

Ruturaj Gaikwad and Daryl Mitchell are both looking to play the bowlers with minimum risk and the approach has worked till now. A calculated display against Matt Henry and they can now go after the spinner Ravi Bishnoi.

CSK 25/1 after 3 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Big catch miss

KL Rahul pulled off a stunner in the first over but Yash Thakur was not up to the challenge in the very next over as he spilled a very important catch. Ruturaj Gaikwad did not wait to make them pay as he slammed Mohsin Khan for two boundaries.

CSK 20/1 after 2 overs

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Henry strikes

A sensational catch for KL Rahul behind the stumps and Ajinkya Rahane departs for just 1. Matt Henry strikes early for LSG and this can be a very big wicket. Daryl Mitchell is the new batter.

CSK 4/1 after 1 over

CSK vs LSG Live Score: It’s match time

Time for the match and this will have serious ramifications when it comes to the Top 4 race. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ajinkya Rahane to open the batting for CSK while Matt Henry will bowl the first over for LSG.

Lucknow Super Giants Subs: Devdutt Padikkal, Arshin Kulkarni, Krishnappa Gowtham, Yudhvir Singh Charak, Manimaran Siddharth

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Big change for CSK

One huge change for Chennai Super Kings as they have dropped Rachin Ravindra and he was replaced by his compatriot Daryll Mitchell.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Request for Dhoni

The calls for MS Dhoni to bat up the order has grown quite a bit in the past few days with the veteran star performing really well. AB De Villiers was the latest one to suggest that idea but it seems that Dhoni is very happy with his position and may continue to play the finisher role.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Here’s what Ruturaj Gaikwad said at the toss

“Nothing different, but the coin toss is something I need to work on. There will be some dew later on, but you never know how the wicket will surprise you. You just need to go out there and express yourself, if the ball in in your area they just attack it. Hoping to set the foundation upfront. One change for us – Daryl comes in for Rachin.”

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Here’s what KL Rahul said at the toss

“We’ll bowl first. There is a bit of dew, we have trained here and there is a bit of dew that will play an impact. Wicket is a bit slow and hopefully we can put their batters under pressure. We played well in all three facets, but we have left the result back in Lucknow. We know have challenging Chennai is, everyone will be cheering for them. Same team for us. No need to quieten the crowd, they always encourage good cricket.”

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Toss

Lucknow Super Giants skipper KL Rahul won the toss and opted to bowl against Chennai Super Kings in their IPL 2024 match on Tuesday. 

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Pitch report

“Two teams within whispering distance of each other, so that makes this game so very important. It was very hot in the afternoon, but it is cooling down a bit now. We are very central on this lovely playing surface. To the right, it is about 66m and only one meter bigger on the left side. Down the ground it is 78m. This feels like a wicket of two halves. The half where we are standing have some specklings of grass, but the far end has a nice even covering of grass. It is not going to be a 200 sort of wicket, it is going to be a real dogfight,” said Ian Bishop and Matthew Hayden.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: Will Gaikwad open today?

Having scored three 50-plus scores as an opener so far, it would once again be a tricky call for Gaikwad to whether stick to the latest shuffle or promote himself back to the top. While Ravindra Jadeja stepped up with a composed fifty, which allowed Moeen Ali and MS Dhoni to produce the late fireworks and give the team a fighting total, CSK would hope their top-order gets their act together before they face LSG again.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: CSK’s top-order

For CSK, skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube have done bulk of the scoring and their failure against LSG meant they didn’t get a flying start and also struggled in the middle overs. While opener Rachin Ravindra’s form is a concern, CSK also promoted Ajinkya Rahane as the opener and as a result, Gaikwad pushed himself a spot down to three.

CSK vs LSG Live Score: CSK eye revenge

In the previous match between these two teams, Lucknow Super Giants emerged victorious by eight wickets. Now, Chennai Super Kings will be eager to extract revenge from KL Rahul and co and register their fifth win of the season.
