Lucknow Super Giants beat Chennai Super Kings by 6 wickets at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on 23 April 2024, chasing down a 211-run target to win a high-scoring IPL T20. Chennai posted 210/4 after being put in to bat, with 75 runs coming in the death overs. Lucknow's reply was built around a strong middle phase: 92 runs for the loss of just 1 wicket in overs 7–15 gave them enough momentum to coast home. Marcus Stoinis was named Player of the Match. LSG's win moved them to 3 victories in 6 head-to-head meetings against Chennai, extending their overall advantage in the rivalry.
Chepauk's average second-innings score across 127 T20 matches is 177, so chasing 211 here was always going to require something above the ordinary. LSG's batting unit delivered exactly that. Their chase success rate at this venue stands at 46%, making any team passing 210 in the first innings a significant challenge to overhaul. Lucknow did it with 6 wickets to spare.
