LSG 180-2 (19 Ovs) vs CSK 176-6 | Scorecard

In the penultimate over, Deshpande takes the ball for CSK, hoping to stem the flow of runs. Pooran starts the over by cutting the ball to long-on for a single, keeping the strike rotating.

Stoinis then manages to connect with the next delivery, smacking it for a boundary, bringing LSG closer to victory.

However, Deshpande delivers a full and wide delivery, which Stoinis fails to connect with, and the umpire signals a wide, offering an additional run to LSG. Another wide follows, adding to CSK's woes.

Stoinis swings at the next delivery but misses, unable to make contact with the ball. However, LSG manages to pick up two quick singles, maintaining the momentum.

The next delivery is a full toss, and Stoinis manages to connect with it, but he will get just one run.

With just 2 runs needed off 7 balls, Deshpande delivers a bouncer, but it's called a no-ball. CSK decides to review the decision, but the no-ball is confirmed, giving LSG a free hit.

Pooran capitalises on the opportunity, slamming the ball for a boundary to seal the victory for LSG.

In total, 15 runs come from the 19th over, as LSG wins the match by 8 wickets, with 6 balls to spare. It's been a dominant performance by LSG, led by KL Rahul's superb innings and supported by contributions from Pooran and Stoinis.
