LSG vs KKR Highlights IPL 2026: Kolkata Knight Riders win Super Over drama comfortably, powered by Sunil Narine’s magic

Rinku Singh finishes it off in a flash as Kolkata Knight Riders clinch the target in just one delivery of the Super Over. Prince Yadav goes full and outside off, but Rinku stays calm, waits for it, and times it beautifully through the off side for a boundary.

KKR hold their nerve after a dramatic Super Over in Lucknow and finally taste their second win of the season in a match full of twists

OUT! Sunil Narine is on fire in the Super Over. Aiden Markram goes back to a flatter delivery and tries to go straight down the ground but mistimes it completely. Rovman Powell comes charging in from long-on, pulls off a brilliant running effort near the ropes and parries it back into play, where Rinku Singh completes the catch safely. A stunning piece of teamwork in the deep and KKR are in total control now.

LSG Super Over: 1/2 (0.3)

OUT! What a start to the Super Over from Sunil Narine. He fires in a tossed-up off-break and Nicholas Pooran goes for the slog sweep but completely misses it. The ball crashes into middle stump and Lucknow Super Giants are rocked early.

LSG Super Over: 0/1 (0.1)

We are all set for the Super Over in Lucknow. Lucknow Super Giants will bat first after finishing level in a dramatic final over finish.

Aiden Markram and Nicholas Pooran are out in the middle for LSG, with Rishabh Pant padded up and ready as the third option. Sunil Narine will take the ball for KKR, and Pooran will be on strike to begin the Super Over.

What a finish in Lucknow! Mohammed Shami has pulled off the impossible as Lucknow Super Giants finish level, sending us into the first Super Over of IPL 2026. The crowd is in absolute disbelief as the game refuses to end here.

Kartik Tyagi goes full and pace-on into the stumps, a predictable length but Shami reads it early, stays strong and launches it cleanly over long-off for a massive six.

OUT! Another brilliant piece of fielding from Rinku Singh as Himmat Singh departs under pressure. Kartik Tyagi goes pace-on and bowls a length delivery outside off, forcing the batter to go across the line. Himmat shuffles and looks to heave it into the leg side but fails to get the timing right and hits it flat towards deep backward square-leg where Rinku takes a safe, clean catch. Relief in the KKR camp as they move inches away from victory.

LSG: 149/8 in (19.5) overs

Lucknow Super Giants need 7 runs in 2 balls

OUT! Kolkata Knight Riders inch closer to victory as George Linde departs. Vaibhav Arora follows him outside the leg stump and delivers a full ball that cramps the batter for room. Linde goes for the lofted shot down the ground but fails to get the elevation to clear long-on.

LSG: 129/7 in (18.2) overs

Lucknow Super Giants need 27 runs in 10 balls

OUT! Another crucial breakthrough for Kolkata Knight Riders as Ayush Badoni departs at a key stage. Varun Chakaravarthy goes into the pitch with a back of a length delivery on off and Badoni looks to pull it off the back foot. He fails to get the elevation and hits it flat towards deep mid-wicket.

LSG: 120/6 in (17.3) overs

Lucknow Super Giants need 36 runs in 15 balls

OUT! Mukul Choudhary fails to repeat his earlier heroics, going back to pull a back of a length delivery on middle but mistimes it completely and finds Rinku Singh at deep mid-wicket who takes a safe catch. Ajinkya Rahane is seen with a calm fist pump as KKR tighten their grip.

LSG: 93/5 in (15.2) overs

Lucknow Super Giants need 63 runs in 28 balls

OUT! Another big blow for Lucknow Super Giants as Nicholas Pooran falls after going after a wide delivery. Varun Chakravarthy bowls it full and across him and Pooran looks to attack the width.

He only manages a thick outside edge and the ball flies straight to Sunil Narine at short third man. A simple catch in the end, but a clever tactical move from KKR as they had just brought an extra fielder into the off-side ring. Varun Chakravarthy celebrates it animatedly.

OUT! Big breakthrough for Kolkata Knight Riders as Rishabh Pant departs after a poor shot selection. Sunil Narine fires it full on off and Pant goes for a premeditated reverse sweep, trying to lift it over backward point.

He is early into the shot and the ball takes a clear spike on UltraEdge. It goes off the glove, then brushes the pad before Tim Seifert fumbles initially but manages to collect it on the rebound. The appeal is sent upstairs and the review confirms the edge. Pant has to walk back.

OUT! Big moment in the game as Aiden Markram departs after a well-set start. Cameron Green floats it full outside off and Markram goes for the lofted shot down the ground. He strikes it cleanly but finds Rinku Singh at long-off.

What follows is brilliant fielding from Rinku Singh. He times his jump perfectly near the boundary cushions, keeps his balance, and shows great awareness to throw the ball up, step outside, and come back in to complete a superb catch. A moment of pure skill in the deep.

LSG: 65/2 in (10.2) overs

Lucknow Super Giants need 91 runs in 58 balls

SIX! Aiden Markram shows intent here in the chase. Varun Chakaravarthy floats a good length delivery on off and Markram is not quite to the pitch of it, but he still goes through the line and times it beautifully.

LSG: 53/1 in (8.2) overs
Aiden Markram: 27 (22)
Rishabh Pant: 23 (25)

Lucknow Super Giants need 103 runs in 70 balls

FOUR! Aiden Markram ends the powerplay in style for Lucknow Super Giants. Vaibhav Arora goes full and angles it in, and Markram times the flick beautifully over mid-on and into the long-on boundary for a clean finish to the six overs.

A steady but controlled powerplay overall from Kolkata Knight Riders, who have managed to keep things relatively quiet after the early wicket of Mitchell Marsh.

Lucknow Super Giants still have a lot of work ahead despite a composed start from Aiden Markram and Rishabh Pant settling in.

LSG: 37/1 in (6) overs
Rishabh Pant: 19 (20)
Aiden Markram: 16 (13)
