IPL 2026: Samson, Overton Help CSK Beat DC By 23 Runs, Get First Win Of The Season (ld)
Chennai Super Kings: Sanju Samson’s scintillating unbeaten 115and Jamie Overton’s clinical 4-18 powered Chennai Super Kings to a commanding 23-run victory over Delhi Capitals and got their first win of the IPL 2026 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday.
Samson, the hero of India’s 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup triumph, lit up Chepauk with the first century of the ongoing season, smashing 115 off just 56 balls, laced with 15 fours and four sixes at a strike-rate of 205.36, as CSK posted a massive 212/2.
In doing so, Samson became the first wicketkeeper-batter to hit an IPL ton for CSK and joined KL Rahul as the only players to score a hundred for three different IPL franchises. He also shared a 113-run stand with youngster Ayush Mhatre, who slammed 59 off 36 deliveries.
