Lucknow Super Giants’ top 3 highest scores in Indian Premier League

Lucknow Super Giants have been a consistent unit with back-to-back qualification to the playoffs in their first two years of existence. A lot of credit for this impeccable consistency should go to their batting order which has been their biggest positive. In this article, we will take a look at Lucknow Super Giants’ top 3 highest scores in the IPL.

257/5 vs Punjab Kings, 2023

This explosive exhibition of shot-making took place last season when Lucknow Super Giants blasted off Punjab Kings in a high-scoring encounter. Batting first, Lucknow managed to score 257 runs which was possible due to a collective effort from the batting unit. Several players played their part in this with their crucial contributions, most notably from Marcus Stoinis who scored 72 runs off just 40 deliveries.

 In the second innings, Punjab showed some fight but the target was beyond their reach. Lucknow won the match by 56 runs to complete a comprehensive victory in the decisive stage of the tournament.

213/9 vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, 2023

This score was achieved by Lucknow Super Giants in a run chase which makes it even more special. RCB put on a challenging total in the first innings but the resilient batting unit of Lucknow made the run chase possible. 

The pursuit was not easy for Lucknow but lower-order contributions made it possible as they won the match on the very last ball. Ravi Bishnoi and Avesh Khan carried the team across the finishing line in the end as Lucknow came out on top in a thriller. 

211/4 vs Chennai Super Kings, 2022

Another massive victory in a tumultuous run chase for Lucknow, against Chennai Super Kings. The two teams met in the initial phase of the 2022 season and the contest produced a nail-biting cliffhanger. Lucknow bowled terribly in the first innings which was exploited by Chennai as they ended up with 210 runs in their account. 

Chasing this target was not an easy task but the heavy lifting from Lucknow’s batting unit made this possible. Evin Lewis and Quinton De Kock were the heroes for Lucknow as both of them scored crucial half-centuries.
