In reply, LSG started off well thanks to a brilliant opening partnership of 99 runs from KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock.
Dwaine Pretorius broke the opening stand and provided CSK a way to come back into the game. They nearly pulled it away, picking up wickets at regular intervals, however, blazing fifty from Evin Lewis and young Ayush Badoni's quick 19 off 9 deliveries paved the way for Lucknow's first-ever win in IPL history.

Meanwhile, for Chennai Super Kings, the doom and gloom continues as they are still winless after two games in IPL 2022. The defending champions went down against Kolkata Knight Riders in the opening game of IPL 2022, and after suffering another defeat on Thursday, surely Ravindra Jadeja must be feeling the heat.

Jadeja has lost both games as CSK skipper since taking over from MS Dhoni and the four-time IPL champs looked toothless in the end to hand KL Rahul and Co their first points.
With the result, LSG move sixth place in the league standings, while CSK have dropped to eighth, still awaiting their first win.
