CSK Vs GT LIVE Cricket Score, IPL 2026: Rabada Gets Samson And Urvil In Same Over; Chennai Under Pressure| 25/2 (4)

Trouble for the Chennai Super Kings as the big wicket of talismanic opener Sanju Samson departs for just 11 off 15. Kagiso Rabada does the trick. Bowls it at hard length, he was lucky to get some extra bounce and Samson looked in a hurry to cut it away.

The Kerala-born cricketer lands a thick outside edge and Jos Buttler takes an easy catch.

Milestone moment for Chennai's new opener Sanju Samson, who becomes the latest to score 5000 runs in the Indian Premier League. He completes this feat in 185 outings for several different franchises.

Sanju Samson and Ruturaj Gaikwad are in the crease and Mohammed Siraj bowls the first over. The first 5 balls, faced by Samson, were dot balls. Let's see if Siraj or any other bowler can get the CSK opener out and put pressure on the home team.

Chennai Super Kings: Sanju Samson (WK), Ruturaj Gaikwad (C), Urvil Patel, Dewald Brevis, Shivam Dube, Kartik Sharma, Jamie Overton, Akeal Hosein, Noor Ahmad, Anshul Kamboj, Gurjapneet Singh

Gujarat Titans: Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill (C), Jos Buttler (WK), Shahrukh Khan, Washington Sundar, Jason Holder, Rashid Khan, Arshad Khan, Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj, Manav Suthar

The Gujarat Titans have won the toss and decided to bowl first.

Punjab Kings scripted history by chasing down a target of 265 against Delhi Capitals. Despite KL Rahul's record 152*, Shreyas Iyer (71*) and Prabhsimran Singh (76) powered PBKS to a 6-wicket victory.

Sunrisers Hyderabad moved into third place by chasing 229 against Rajasthan Royals. Ishan Kishan (74) led the way for SRH, overshadowing a historic 37-ball century from 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi for the Royals.

In the evening, the Lucknow Super Giants will welcome the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Ekana Stadium.

The head-to-head record between the two teams is perfectly locked at 4 wins each in 8 encounters. But when it comes to the recent results from the last 3 seasons, Chennai have lost only once, that too, during their only meeting in 2024. Read the full story here.
