IPL 2026: I Just Wanted To Bat According To The Situation And The Ball, Says Urvil On 13-ball Fifty
Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings top-order batter Urvil Patel said he kept his approach simple while blazing his way to a recordequalling 13ball halfcentury against Lucknow Super Giants in the sides five-wicket win in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday. Urvils knock of 65 off 23 balls, studded with eight sixes and two fours, set the tone for CSKs successful chase of 204 and lifted them to fifth spot on the points table. He now shares the record for IPLs fastest fifty with Yashasvi Jaiswal, who claimed the record on his way to making 98 not out against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. With chants of Urvil! Urvil! reverberating in the electrified stands at Chepauk, Urvil Patel pulled off a touching gesture by taking out a note from his pocket that read, This is for you, Dad, along with some lines in Gujarati. His knock also helped CSK pull off a chase above 180 for the first time since 2019. There was nothing in my mind, but I just wanted to bat according to the situation and the ball. The coach just told me to maintain a stable base and then hit; I did the same. Rutu said the wicket was low and to be ready for it. He didn't tell me much; he just let me play my game, Urvil said after the match ended. Player of the Match Jamie Overton, who picked 3-36, including a blistering Josh Inglis, and caused LSG's innings to slow down, said discipline was key to his performance. It felt good. A bit tight at the end. Nice to get over the line and get another two points. I think it was just doing what I've been doing well. Just keep hitting the top of the stumps and trying to make them hit good balls off the top of the stumps. Nice to get a sort of strangle from the leg-side. Nice to get a couple of wickets and obviously to get Josh out at that point was crucial, he said. He credited his work with CSK bowling coach Eric Simons for refining his action and adapting to Indian conditions. All the time I work with Eric (Simons) - for me, my action, I did it a couple of times today, where I fall off and bowl a couple down the leg side. That's just sort of how I do things. It's definitely been a big work since coming this year. Even in the World Cup, it's just trying to clean up everything. I think working out how to bowl over in India is very different from bowling everywhere else in the world, he said.

Ruturaj Gaikwad thrilled after CSK chase 204 to beat LSG in IPL 2026
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad expressed delight after his side pulled off a rare 200-plus chase, saying he was pleased to hunt down 204 after beating Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by five wickets in a highscoring Indian Premier League (IPL) clash at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday. Sundays victory, led by Urvil Patels record 13-ball fifty, marked CSKs first successful pursuit of a score above 180 since 2019 and lifted them to fifth spot on the points table, after completing the chase with four balls to spare. Yes (got too close), but at the end, chasing 200, when you start the innings, it will always go to the 18th or the 19th or the 20th over. We started really well in the Power-play, but it was a bit tacky for a new batter to just go in and play the shots. But it's important that we get the job done. It's been a while since we chased 200, so good to chase it, Gaikwad said after the match ended, in the post-match presentation ceremony. He also praised his bowlers, led by Jamie Overtons three-fer, for pulling things back after LSGs flying start, with Josh Inglis hitting a blistering 85, and revealed that a crucial message from Sanju Samson during the first strategic timeout helped galvanise the team. But after the first timeout, Sanju just came in, and he said, if we have it in us, we have to make a comeback here and try and restrict them as low as possible. So whatever around 220, it was still fine. So I think that just pumped us, everyone. And after that, it was just about getting those wickets, slowly getting into the game. So I think everyone was eager to make a comeback after the first timeout, and I feel that's the commitment or that determination really changed the course of the game. It was just about getting your bowlers right, how you can attack from one end, how you can be defensive from one end. And we thought they were very much ahead, 15, 20, or 30 runs ahead after Power-play. So we thought, let's get our best bowlers for the next three or four overs and see how it goes after that. And I think that six to ten overs, Noor and Jamie bowled really well. They just pulled it back really well, Gaikwad explained. At the same time, Gaikwad credited Inglis for hitting an explosive 85. Huge credit and hats off to Josh. I think he played some amazing shots, which we actually didn't have any answer to, and you can't quite plan for it, or you can't quite set a field for it. He just played an amazing knock. Hats off to him. Looking ahead, Gaikwad stressed the importance of good recovery, especially with CSK now set to travel to Lucknow to meet LSG in the reverse fixture on May 15. Well, some of the guys need that break. It's been hot in this side of the country, and it's humid, so it's really tough to play in this heat for 20 overs. Most of them are playing here for the first time. At the same time, Gaikwad credited Inglis for hitting an explosive 85. Huge credit and hats off to Josh.

Still three games to go, but it is just about keeping it simple, keeping it simple as long as possible.

IPL 2026: Overton, Urvil Help CSK Register Third Straight Win, Move To Fifth Spot (ld)
Chennai Super Kings: Urvil Patel hammered a breath-taking 65, including hitting the joint fastest fifty in Indian Premier League (IPL) history in just 13 balls, as Chennai Super Kings defeated Lucknow Super Giants by five wickets to notch their third successive win in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. Sundays game also marked the first instance since 2019 that CSK successfully chased a target in excess of 180, as they moved to fifth spot in the IPL 2026 points table and pushed LSG towards elimination from the competition. Inserted into batting first on a red-soil pitch, LSG rode on Josh Ingliss blistering 85 off just 33 balls to pile up 91 runs in the Power-play before CSK bowlers, led by Jamie Overtons 3-36, pulled things back to restrict them to 203/8. In reply, CSKs chase began briskly with Sanju Samson and skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad adding quick runs at the top. But once Samson fell to Digvesh Rathi, Urvil turned the contest on its head with a ferocious ball-striking assault to get his fifty in 13 balls, as CSK stormed to 97 in their own powerplay. By hitting the fastest fifty hit by a CSK batter, also his maiden IPL half-century, Urvil also equalled Yashasvi Jaiswals record for the fastest fifty in IPL history, coming in the 2023 season, and eventually finished with 65 off 23 balls, including eight sixes and two fours, coming at a strike-rate of 282.61. By the time Urvil departed after being dropped on 62 by Rathi, the rest of CSKs chase was seemingly a straightforward one. But LSG clawed back through Shahbaz Ahmeds double strike and Rathis dismissal of Dewald Brevis. By the time Avesh Khan removed Kartik Sharma, LSG tightened the equation and raised hopes of a turnaround. But Prashant Veer (18 not out) and Shivam Dube (15 not out) hung around to complete the chase with four balls to spare, including the latter hitting consecutive sixes. It also helped that LSGs fielding let them down, as two catches of Veer were grassed under pressure by Rathi and Nicholas Pooran. CSKs uphill chase began with intent as Ruturaj Gaikwad and Sanju Samson hit eight boundaries collectively in 3.3 overs. But Rathi had Samson dismissed when he tried to pull off a quicker delivery, and was left to see his stumps being castled. His fall brought Urvil to the crease, and for the next few minutes, 32,000 odd fans at Chepauk were left spellbound. Walking in after Samsons dismissal, Urvil tore into the LSG attack with his quick pick-up of lengths and timing his maximums with impeccable power. Urvil quickly launched Avesh Khan for three sixes in the fifth over, before smacking Rathi for three maximums and a four. The highlight of his stay at the crease came when Urvil launched Mohammed Shami for his seventh maximum over long-on to be at 48 off 11 balls. Though he managed only a single on the next ball, Urvil reached his first IPL fifty in just 13 balls, with chants of Urvil! Urvil! reverberating in the electrified stands. In a touching gesture, Urvil pulled out a note from his pocket that read, This is for you, Dad, along with some lines in Gujarati, even as the CSK dugout was full of joy. Urvils explosive start also helped CSK reclaim the record for the highest powerplay score at Chepauk via 97/1, surpassing LSGs 91 earlier in the day. Though Urvils blitzkrieg was brought to an end by a slower delivery from Shahbaz Ahmed in the tenth over, he had set the tone for a memorable evening for CSK at Chepauk. But after that, LSG fought back through the middle overs, with Shahbaz and Digvesh striking crucial blows to remove Gaikwad and Dewald Brevis. Kartik Sharma chipped in with 20 before Avesh dismissed him, leaving CSK at 169/5 in the 17th over. With the equation tightening, nervousness was felt in Chepauk, but Veer brought the nerves down by flicking Prince Yadav for six, before hitting another maximum off Avesh, apart from being dropped twice on nine. With 10 needed off the final over, Aiden Markram was handed the ball, and after two wides, Dube finished the job in style by smashing back-to-back sixes to seal victory and strengthen CSKs hopes of entering the playoffs. Previously, Inglis dominated the powerplay for LSG with a flurry of strokes, leading to ten fours and six maximums coming off his blade. But LSGs momentum dipped once the field spread, as CSKs bowlers clawed their way back. Overtons three-fer and Noor Ahmad further kept the scoring rate in check. Despite the slowdown in the middle overs, Shahbazs late cameo of 43 not out off 25 balls, capped by a six off the final delivery, lifted LSG past the 200-run mark. Inglis set the tone from the opening over, as he lofted, swept, and hammered Akeal Hosein for two fours and a six. Inglis continued to smash boundaries at will, with reverse scoops and pulls being the standout. Though Mitchell Marsh fell cheaply to Anshul Kamboj, Inglis raced to a 17-ball half-century and gave LSG their highest powerplay score of the season. After Noor had Nicholas Pooran slog-sweeping to deep mid-wicket, Inglis eventually fell for 85 off 33 balls, caught by Sanju Samson while trying to paddle off Overton, who had Rishabh Pant chopping onto his stumps in the same over. Markrams run-out and Akshat Raghuwanshis departure off Overton further added to LSGs slide, as from 91/1, they slipped to 154/6. But Shahbaz and Himmat Singh joined forces to steady LSGs innings. Shahbaz, in particular, counter-attacked with inventive strokes, striking boundaries off Overton and Mukesh Choudhary. Though Kamboj castled Himmat to bring the 50-run stand to an end and Mohammed Shami was run out for a duck, Shahbaz launched the last ball of the innings over long-on for six to take LSG past 200, which proved inadequate against a rampaging Urvil. After Noor had Nicholas Pooran slog-sweeping to deep mid-wicket, Inglis eventually fell for 85 off 33 balls, caught by Sanju Samson while trying to paddle off Overton, who had Rishabh Pant chopping onto his stumps in the same over.

Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings pacer and Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 Purple Cap holder Anshul Kamboj expressed confidence in his sides ability to chase down Lucknow Super Giants total of 203, describing the pitch at Chepauk as slightly slow but with good bounce. Its quite a good wicket. Its a slightly slow wicket, but the bounce is good, and the ball is coming on nicely, so we can chase this.

Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) assistant bowling coach Sridharan Sriram said the side is now peaking at the perfect time in IPL 2026, adding that the relaxed atmosphere in the camp remains unchanged regardless of results. A win for CSK, ranked sixth in points table with ten points, over Lucknow Super Giants at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday afternoon will help them strengthen their chances of entering the playoffs. 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 weve 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, Sriram said in a pre-game chat with the broadcasters. Acknowledging the challenges posed by every opponent in the ten-team competition, Sriram added, 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 (captain Ruturaj Gaikwad) has learned and improved immensely. You can see a significant difference between his approach in the first game compared to now. Hes getting better with every match, and the more time he spends in the role, the better he will become.

IPL 2026: Win Over RCB Really Boosted Morale In The LSG Dressing Room, Says Markram
Lucknow Super Giants: Lucknow Super Giants batter Aiden Markram said the morale in the camp has received a timely lift after their nine-run victory over Royal Challengers Bengaluru, adding that hopes are high of them backing this up with another win over Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday. Everything is going well. Were 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, Markram said in a pre-game chat with the broadcasters. Markram, who captains South Africa in T20Is, highlighted the demands of batting in different positions, as hes moved between opening and batting in the middle order for bottom-placed LSG in the ongoing season. 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 youre 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, he added. Markram stressed the importance of flexibility in approach when batting at different positions in the shortest format. Everyones 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.

A win for CSK, ranked sixth in points table, will help them strengthen their chances of entering the playoffs, while bottom-placed LSG arrive after snapping their six-game losing streak with a nine-run win over defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru. After winning the toss, CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad said the pitch has been under covers and with rain around, it was not a tough decision to bowl first on a red soil pitch. The wicket was under covers and there was rain around. The pitch does behave differently in day games, but we need to adapt well and then restrict them to a low score. Pretty positive on the way the last 7-8 games have gone for us. It's been a good turnaround and we'll look to stay positive, he said. LSG captain Rishabh Pant said Josh Inglis and Avesh Khan come into the playing eleven in place of Arshin Kulkarni and Mayank Yadav. We would have bowled first as well. We need to win all games, but we must be consistent and play some good cricket. We have had our moments and chances, but we didn't finish it. We have to give 200% in every game, he said.

'Dhoni Wont Risk Disrupting CSKs Winning Combination Against LSG': Kumble
Chennai Super Kings: Former India captain Anil Kumble believes veteran wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni may not feature for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) despite working hard to regain full match fitness, as the five-time champions would not want to disturb a successful combination. Speaking ahead of the IPL clash, Kumble said CSK is a side that strongly believes in continuity and rarely changes a winning XI. CSK are the kind of side that dont like their winning streak to end. They dont tinker much with their winning combination, and they believe in backing their players, Kumble told Jio Hotstar. The former India spinner revealed that Dhoni has been putting in extra effort behind the scenes, including spending significant time batting and wicketkeeping during practice sessions. Now, MS Dhoni has been batting a lot in the nets. He has even been practicing wicketkeeping in net sessions, which is very surprising because he is someone who never keeps wickets in the nets. He is doing that and trying his best to return to full match fitness, he added. However, Kumble feels the five-time IPL-winning captain may still choose not to return immediately if it risks affectin the balance and rhythm of the side. But even if he manages to regain the required fitness levels, I feel he will not want to come into the playing XI because CSK are doing well. He will not take the chance of disrupting the teams momentum and the player combination that has helped them win, Kumble said. However, Kumble feels the five-time IPL-winning captain may still choose not to return immediately if it risks affectin the balance and rhythm of the side.
