How Statz Rating works:
- Each player receives a contextual match impact score based on their all-round contribution — batting, bowling, and situational factors.
- Ratings are scaled against the season benchmark so they are directly comparable across fixtures and to the season leaderboard.
- A typical top performer scores around 100. Exceptional performances can exceed 100.
Chennai Super Kings vs Lucknow Super Giants – IPL 2026 Match Report | Statz
Chennai Super Kings beat Lucknow Super Giants by 5 wickets (with 4 balls remaining) in the 53rd match of 74 in the Indian Premier League 2026 at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. CSK moved to fifth in the standings with 12 points from 11 games, while LSG remain rooted to the bottom with 6 points from 11. A result that keeps Chennai in the playoff conversation and all but ends Lucknow’s campaign.
First Innings – Lucknow Super Giants
Lucknow Super Giants posted 203/8 in 20 overs, built almost entirely around a stunning Josh Inglis knock at the top of the order. The Australian wicketkeeper bludgeoned 85 off 33 balls (10 fours, 6 sixes, SR 258) before being caught at 9.1 overs with LSG on 112. Mitchell Marsh contributed 10 off 10 before departing caught at 5.1 overs (score 77). Nicholas Pooran came and went quickly for 1 (score 92, 6.2 overs), and Rishabh Pant was cleaned up for 15 off 12 at 9.4 overs (score 115) to leave LSG in trouble mid-innings.
Shahbaz Ahmed revived LSG with an unbeaten 43 off 25 (3 fours, 3 sixes, SR 172), and Himmat Singh chipped in with 17 off 12 before being bowled at 19.4 overs with the score at 197. Akshat Raghuwanshi made 18 off 18 from number six, dismissed caught at 14.2 overs. From a strong platform set by Inglis, LSG lost wickets too regularly in the middle to post a truly daunting total.
With the ball, Jamie Overton was the standout with 3/36 from 4 overs (Econ 9.00). Anshul Kamboj picked up 2/47 and Noor Ahmad was the most economical with 1/24 from 4 overs (Econ 6.00).
Second Innings – Chennai Super Kings
CSK came out swinging. Sanju Samson opened with 28 off 14 (3 fours, 2 sixes, SR 200) before being cleaned up at 3.4 overs with CSK on 45. Urvil Patel took the powerplay by the scruff of the neck – he hit 65 off 23 balls (2 fours, 8 sixes, SR 283) in a blistering cameo before being caught at 9.2 overs with CSK at 126. Ruturaj Gaikwad anchored the innings with 42 off 28 (3 fours, 2 sixes, SR 150), eventually bowled at 12.5 overs with the score at 149.
Kartik Sharma made 20 off 20 before being caught at 16.1 overs (score 169), and Dewald Brevis went for 10 off 12. Shivam Dube (15* off 7) and Prashant Veer (18* off 12) saw CSK home with 4 balls to spare.
For LSG, Shahbaz Ahmed took 2/30 from 3 overs (Econ 10.00) and Digvesh Rathi claimed 2/45 from 4, but neither could stop the chase.
Statz MVP – Josh Inglis
Josh Inglis is Statz MVP with an MI rating of 130.81. The formula calculates impact based on match context, and 85 off 33 at the top of the order in a sub-200 total was the most influential single contribution in this game. Notably, Statz disagrees with the official Man of the Match verdict – that went to Jamie Overton for his 3/36. Overton bowled well from the winning side, but Inglis built LSG’s entire innings around his innings. On pure impact, it is hard to argue with the data.
Top 5 Statz Ratings
- Josh Inglis (LSG) – 183 Dream11 pts | 85 off 33, SR 258 – the platform that made LSG competitive
- Shahbaz Ahmed (LSG) – 153 Dream11 pts | 43* off 25 plus 2/30 with the ball – genuine all-round day
- Urvil Patel (CSK) – 147 Dream11 pts | 65 off 23, 8 sixes – the powerplay assault that broke the chase open
- Jamie Overton (CSK) – 106 Dream11 pts | 3/36, official MoM, kept LSG to a chaseable total
- Sanju Samson (CSK) – 80 Dream11 pts | 28 off 14, set the aggressive tone at the top
Turning Point
The cluster of wickets between overs 6 and 10 in LSG’s innings changed the shape of the match. Nicholas Pooran fell at 6.2 overs with the score 92, then Josh Inglis was dismissed at 9.1 overs (112), and Rishabh Pant was cleaned up by Anshul Kamboj at 9.4 overs with the score at 115. Three wickets in less than four overs halted all the momentum Inglis had built. The turning point: Pant’s dismissal at 9.4 overs, 115 on the board – from there, the total was always going to be short.
Match Context
This was the 53rd match of 74 in the IPL 2026 Regular Season. Chennai Super Kings sit 5th (W6 L5, 12 pts, NRR +0.185) – level on points with RCB in 4th and RR in 6th, but with a positive run rate keeping them in the top-four picture with matches in hand for rivals. Lucknow Super Giants are last (10th, W3 L8, 6 pts, NRR -0.860) – joint-bottom with Mumbai Indians but significantly worse on NRR. LSG’s playoff hopes are mathematically alive but functionally over. At the top, SRH lead on 14 points alongside GT, and the race for the final playoff spots is wide open heading into the final stretch of the regular season.
