This is also the second-highest team total against KKR, only behind PBKS’s 262/2 in their record chase at the same venue last year.

15 is the second-most sixes LSG have hit in an IPL innings; they’d hit 16 each against DC in Lucknow in 2023 and at Visakhapatnam earlier this season.

This is also the second-highest team total against KKR, only behind PBKS’s 262/2 in their record chase at the same venue last year.

I remember that match. Bairstow pulled an heist with Shashank

Mitchell Marsh: To be honest I thought 180-190 was par, but the ball came on to the bat better once it got a bit older. Obviously, blessed to have Pooran in our side. I have played against him (Markram) a lot, but it's nice to bat along with with him. We are traditional with the way we play. We try to play good cricket shots. It's a small ground with a fast outfield. I have been staying good with my routine and thinking. I try to watch the ball and have fun. Hopefully I keep continue scoring runs going forward. Hopefully I watch the boys get a win.

I kept the total runs low after reading the pitch report

Same Wildy same I kept it 325-350. I wish I had gone with my instincts and let it remain 350-400 — waise tab bhi kam hi hota, assuming KKR hits 200+

KKR pls 100 runs difference mein haar jaoge toh tumhara bhala hoga

Marsh: "I think any good batsman will say it's doing a bit out there. But no, to be honest after the first few overs I thought maybe 180-190 would be par but as the ball got older it started to come on nicer and we're blessed to have Nicky Pooran on our side. [On opening with Markram] Have formed a beautiful relationship with him. Played a lot against him for South Africa, but we've formed a good bond. We were just trying to play good strong cricket shots. [On his slow start] 14 off 14 was absolute panic stations for me. Was just trying to get a read on the wicket. It's a small ground with fast outfield so there's always time to catch up. [His form] I'm just trying to prepare as well as I can for every game so i can walk out to the middle and have fun. Got a lot of trust in the players behind me to go out there and go hard. [On being subbed off for Impact Player] Danny [Morrison], I have never been more motivated to score runs, I can just go sit on by back side and enjoy."
