IPL 2026: Mohammed Shami's Last-ball Six Takes LSG-KKR Game To Super Over
Lucknow Super Giants: Mohammed Shami struck a dramatic six off the final ball to ensure Match 38 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 between Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders goes into a Super Over after both teams finished on 155 in a pulsating contest at the BRSABV Ekana Stadium in Lucknow on Sunday.
KKR tried their best to close out the game, but Shami hitting a six off Kartik Tyagi on the last ball meant a one-over shootout would decide the result. Since LSG batted second, they will bat first in what is the first Super Over game of this season after a tie was witnessed for the 16th time.
Chasing 156, LSG lost Mitchell Marsh early to Vaibhav Arora in the powerplay, but Rishabh Pant and Aiden Markram steadied the innings with a 57-run stand. Markram’s fluent 31 ended with him caught by long-off, while Pant never kicked into taking more risks until he was dismissed for 42 by Sunil Narine after a successful review.
