Sanju Samson has been CSK's mainstay in the batting department whereas there have been contributions from Urvil Patel, captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and members. Shivam Dube, Kartik Sharma and Dewald Brevis have provided the fireworks when called upon and their timely return to form, could be vital in the latter stage of the tourney.

Despite Mitchell Marsh hammering a century, LSG have failed to click on the collective front and thus find themselves at the bottom of the IPL 2026 points table.
