On May 3, match 45 of the IPL 2023 would take place at Lucknow’s Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium between the Lucknow Super Giants and Chennai Super Kings.
The most recent meeting between the two teams took place in the sixth game of the current season at the venerable MA Chidambaram Stadium, with the host Chennai Super Kings winning by a score of 12 runs.
When they batted first, Ruturaj Gaikwad’s fine 57-run knock and cameos from other batters enabled them to post a huge total of 217/7 in just 20 overs.
In response to 217, LSG batters made a valiant effort, helped along by Kyle Mayers’ valiant fifty, but their efforts were in vain as they fell 12 runs short of their target.
