IPL 2026: Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings Match Preview Odds & Predictions

Match 59 of the 2026 Indian Premier League will see the Lucknow Super Giants face off with the Chennai Super Kings on Friday, May 15th, at the Ekana Cricket Stadium.

Lucknow Super Giants Preview

The Lucknow Super Giants have had a disappointing campaign, as they are stuck at the bottom of the points standings and are already out of the playoff race. On Sunday at the Chepauk Stadium, LSG were beaten by five wickets by Chennai Super Kings, with the result officially knocking them out of the playoff spot. They have managed just one win from their last eight games. Despite the disappointing campaign, Mitchell Marsh has been a standout performer with 377 runs in 11 matches, while Prince Yadav has impressed with 16 wickets.

Lucknow Super Giants XI

Mitchell Marsh, Josh Inglis, Nicholas Pooran, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Aiden Markram, Akshat Raghuwanshi, Himmat Singh, Shahbaz Ahmed, Mohammed Shami, Digvesh Singh Rathi, Prince Yadav

Chennai Super Kings Preview

The Chennai Super Kings' confidence are high at the moment as they head into this game on the back of an impressive three-match winning streak. Their latest success came on Sunday at Chepauk, where they secured a convincing five-wicket victory over the same opposition, and they will be hoping for a repeat performance here. However, CSK have been dealt a significant blow ahead of the contest, with Jamie Overton returning to England due to a thigh injury. Despite that setback, the team remains firmly in the playoff hunt, sitting fifth on the table with 12 points, having won six of their 11 matches so far.

Chennai Super Kings XI:

Sanju Samson (wk), Ruturaj Gaikwad (c), Urvil Patel, Kartik Sharma, Dewald Brevis, Shivam Dube, Akeal Hosein, Anshul Kamboj, Noor Ahmad, Matt Henry/Spencer Johnson, Mukesh Choudhary
