This evening at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, the match between the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will take place. Since the 2019 season, CSK hasn’t played an IPL home match at the Chepauk.
Super Kings, one of the most popular IPL teams, will take on a rival at their home pitch for the first time in over four years. Fans around the nation should therefore get ready to experience a festival-like atmosphere at this legendary stadium.
MS Dhoni is the captain of the Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2023. The leader of the Lucknow Super Giants is KL Rahul. CSK’s first game was lost to Gujarat Titans. On the other hand, LSG defeated Delhi Capitals in their opening match.
There aren’t many head-to-head records available for this matchup because these two teams haven’t played each other very often. Having said that, it is important to note that Evin Lewis and Ayush Badoni’s match-winning 13-ball 40-run fifth-wicket stand, which included scoring 25 runs off Shivam Dube’s final over, is what is most well-remembered about their only game to date.

Nonetheless, Gujarat was able to snare a victory by 5 wickets because to outstanding performances by Shubman Gill (63). Vijay Shankar (27) and Wriddhiman Saha (25) both made significant contributions.
