LSG vs CSK Highlights, IPL 2023: Massive heart-break for the fans as the game has been called off due to rain. A point each has been given to both teams. Ayush Badoni scored his first fifty this season after Lucknow suffered a terrible top-order collapse. Before the rain stopped play, he was unbeaten on 59 off 33 balls. It turned out to be a horrific collapse for Lucknow as they lost half of their batters in the first 10 overs. The spinners did a great job as Moeen Ali and Maheesh Teekshana picked 2 wickets each while Jadeja bagged one. Earlier, CSK won the toss and elected to bowl first against Lucknow Super Giant (LSG) in an IPL 2023 match at Ekana Stadium, here on Wednesday. On the other hand, Krunal Pandya is leading LSG as regular skipper KL Rahul has been ruled out of today’s match due to injury. Manan Vohra and Karan Sharma have also come for LSG in the playing XI. The 4-time champions are having a great run this year. They are settled in the top four of the table with 10 points and a positive net run rate. On the other hand, LSG have suffered a massive blow with captain KL Rahul getting ruled out of the tournament due to an injury he suffered in the game against RCB on Monday. The team suffered a close defeat in a low-scoring affair but the plus point they have is their position on the table. They are above CSK, on the third spot. And will look to rise up with a win against CSK at home.
