The win underscores CSK's determined approach to the tournament's business end.
IPL 2026: Gaikwad Hails Bowlers After CSK Beat MI, Lauds Kamboj, Noor For Good Show
Chennai Super Kings: The Indian quartet of Dharamveer Choudhary, Rajesh Ramesh, Vishal TK and Manu T.S. clocked an impressive time of 3:00.32 seconds, a season best, in the mens 4x400m to finish fourth in their heat 3 on day one of World Athletics Relays at Gaborones National Stadium on Saturday. A target of 160 wasnt a massive one for CSK, and Gaikwad hit 67 not out off 48 balls, laced with five fours and two sixes, his second successive fifty. Kartik, meanwhile, registered his maiden IPL halfcentury in an unbeaten 40-ball vigil, hitting four boundaries and three sixes, as CSK wrapped up the chase with 11 balls remaining. At the age of 20 years and 6 days, Kartik became the second youngest CSK batter to score an IPL fifty after Ayush Mhatre (17y 291d). The duo rotated strike wisely and punished the loose deliveries by sending them to the boundary ropes and kept the chase firmly under control through a 98-run stand off 75 balls for the third wicket. Though Jasprit Bumrah and AM Ghazanfar took a scalp each, CSK were simply too composed in the chase to complete the double over MI and bring their campaign back on track. The eightwicket win is CSKs biggest victory against MI in the IPL, and this is the third time they have achieved a league double over their archrivals after 2014 and 2023. Right from the word go, CSKs chase was steady. Sanju Samson hit two boundaries and was even dropped by Ryan Rickelton before the latter took the formers catch off Bumrah. Gaikwad settled in quickly, working through the gaps and ensuring the scoreboard kept ticking. Urvil Patels cameo of 24 off 12 balls, laced with two fours and as many sixes, injected momentum before being dismissed by Ghazanfar. Kartik then joined Gaikwad, and the duo stitched together a matchwinning stand. Gaikwads fluency stood out as he pierced the offside field with precision, while Kartik showed maturity beyond his years by mixing caution with aggression. Their partnership never allowed MIs bowlers to build pressure. By the halfway mark, CSK were well ahead of the required rate, and the chase became a formality. Together, they ensured CSK crossed the line with ease in the 18th over, with MI now clearly staring at an early exit from the competition. Previously, Kamboj claimed 3-32 while Ahmad chipped in with 2-26 as CSK produced a disciplined bowling performance to restrict MI to a below-par total. On a two-paced pitch, CSK pulled things back after a brisk start from MI, who were 90/2 at the halfway mark, but then faltered in the last ten overs, making 69/5. CSKs pacers were clinical in bowling hard lengths and yorkers. For MI, Naman Dhir topscored with 57 off 37 balls, but did get stuck in the later stages alongside Hardik Pandya, whose timing deserted him big time. From the word go, CSK were on the money, despite Shivam Dube being out of sorts in his fielding. MI were jolted early when Will Jacks fell to Kamboj in the second over. Ryan Rickelton counterattacked by smashing five to race to 37 before Noor Ahmad dismissed him in the seventh over. Dhir joined forces with Suryakumar Yadav to keep the scoreboard ticking before the latter perished to debutant Ramakrishna Ghosh for 21. At 90/2 after 10 overs, MI looked set for a big total until CSK bounced back. Tilak Varmas scratchy stay ended on five against Noor, while Dhirs standout knock was cut short by Jamie Overtons sharp offcutter and miscued to extra cover. Kamboj came in to remove Pandya and Robin Minz to complete a threewicket haul. Trent Boult struck a six late on, but MIs innings fizzled out, as Kamboj and Noor ensured MI managed to reach a total that looked underwhelming given the start they had in the first ten overs, which CSK easily surpassed, and gave lots of delight to their faithful fans. At 90/2 after 10 overs, MI looked set for a big total until CSK bounced back.

Josh Inglis Links Up With LSG For IPL 2026
Lucknow Super Giants: Lucknow Super Giants have received a timely boost with Australian wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis joining the squad ahead of their crucial IPL 2026 clash against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday. The 31-year-old, whose availability had been a topic of discussion since the auction, has now reached India and started training with the team. Inglis had previously told franchises that he would miss part of the season due to personal commitments, such as his wedding in Western Australia on April 18, which caused some uncertainty about his participation. Despite initial doubts, Lucknow signed him for Rs 8.6 crore after his release from Punjab Kings, where he had played for a much lower fee. His delayed arrival raised questions, but now his inclusion is crucial for LSG, who are struggling at the bottom of the standings with only two wins in eight matches. Inglis addition is anticipated to bolster a batting lineup that has struggled with consistency this season, especially among the overseas players. Given the limited contributions from key individuals, the Australians aggressive style of play might provide the boost the team needs. Confirming the news across social media platforms, LSG shared a picture that said Explosives from Down Under. He comes with strong credentials from the last edition, having scored 278 runs in 11 innings with a strike rate over 160. His skill to handle top-quality pace could be crucial, particularly against a Mumbai attack led by Jasprit Bumrah. Inglis has previously performed well against the Indian fast bowler, especially during a key moment last season when he faced Bumrah.

IPL 2026: 'MI Have The Upper Hand, Says Kaif On Clash Vs CSK
Chennai Super Kings: Former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif believes the Mumbai Indians (MI) hold a slight edge over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) heading into their crucial Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 encounter at MA Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday, citing their overall squad strength despite inconsistent form. On paper, the Mumbai Indians look stronger than the Chennai Super Kings because they have a lot of match winners and experienced campaigners in their side, Kaif told Jio Hotstar. However, Kaif also pointed out concerns around Mumbais recent performances, noting that their inability to convert games into wins could be a potential drawback. But when you look at recent form, a lot of questions get raised because MI havent been winning many games. That said, on their day, if they play a dominant brand of cricket, they can be very hard to stop, he added. Turning his attention to Chennai, Kaif highlighted that their overdependence on opener Sanju Samson has cost them a lot, and other players must also perform to reduce the overdependence and win the games for the team. Chennai, on the other hand, have only had Sanju Samson firing so far. They are relying heavily on his performances to win games, he observed. CSK return to action after a six-day break.
