Kolkata Knight Riders seal thrilling Super Over victory against LSG

Kolkata Knight Riders secured a thrilling Super Over victory against Lucknow Super Giants in a gripping IPL 2026 encounter at the Ekana Stadium on Sunday. The contest saw momentum shift multiple times before KKR held their nerve in the decisive moments to seal an important win.

Sunil Narine delivered a standout performance with the ball, producing a disciplined spell of 1/23 in his four overs to restrict the LSG batters during their chase of 155. With the match ending in a tie, captain Ajinkya Rahane turned to his most trusted spinner for the Super Over. Narine rose to the occasion, dismissing Nicholas Pooran and Aiden Markram in just three deliveries, conceding only a single run and setting KKR a modest target of 2 runs.

However, the match ultimately belonged to Rinku Singh, who produced a remarkable all-round display. Despite Mohsin Khan’s five-wicket haul putting KKR under pressure, Rinku anchored the innings with a career-best unbeaten 83 off 51 balls, guiding his side to 155/7. His innings, decorated with seven fours and five sixes, included a game-changing over where he struck four consecutive sixes off Digvesh Rathi, shifting the momentum decisively in KKR’s favour.

Rinku’s contribution extended beyond batting, as he took four crucial catches in the field and added another in the Super Over, underlining his all-round impact. He fittingly finished the game by scoring the winning runs in the Super Over and was deservedly named Player of the Match for his exceptional performance.

This victory marked KKR’s second win of the season. Although they remain in the lower half of the points table, the result keeps their playoff hopes alive. Kolkata will next face Sunrisers Hyderabad on May 3 as they look to build momentum in the tournament.
