IPL 2026: Purple Cap Holder Anshul Kamboj Backs CSK To Chase 204 Against LSG

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. It definitely feels like it will play similarly throughout the innings. It wont become much slower because the bounce is good, so there should not be too much difficulty. I think this score is chaseable, Kamboj said to broadcasters at the innings break. LSG had raced away in the Power-play courtesy Josh Ingliss explosive 85 off 33 balls, but CSKs bowlers pulled things back in the middle overs. Noor Ahmad (1-24) and Jamie Overton (3-36) applied the brakes, while Kamboj, despite being expensive, took out Mitchell Marsh and Himmat Singh to take his IPL 2026 wickets tally to 19 scalps in 11 games at an average of 19.21 and an economy rate of 9.20. Reflecting on the turnaround by CSK bowlers in the middle overs, Kamboj said, Yes, it was a good comeback. When you go for runs in the first five overs, then maintaining control in the remaining phases and coming back well is important.
