IPL 2026: Unchanged CSK Elect To Bowl First Against LSG, Inglis, Avesh Included
Chennai Super Kings: An unchanged Chennai Super Kings have won the toss and elected to bowl first against Lucknow Super Giants in match 53 of IPL 2026 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium here on Sunday.
A win for CSK, ranked sixth in points table, will help them strengthen their chances of entering the playoffs, while bottom-placed LSG arrive after snapping their six-game losing streak with a nine-run win over defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
After winning the toss, CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad said the pitch has been under covers and with rain around, it was not a tough decision to bowl first on a red soil pitch. “The wicket was under covers and there was rain around. The pitch does behave differently in day games, but we need to adapt well and then restrict them to a low score. Pretty positive on the way the last 7-8 games have gone for us. It's been a good turnaround and we'll look to stay positive,” he said.
