Markram’s dismissal left LSG needing 49 off 36. Pant and Samad added 34 off 27 to bring it to 19 off 18.
LSG needed 9 off Jaydev Unadkat’s last over. Pant hit 3 boundaries and won it with a ball left.
Most memorable SRH vs LSG matches in IPL history
The first meeting (4 April 2022). Hooda and Rahul built 169/7, Avesh Khan took 4/24, and Jason Holder took 3 late wickets as SRH slid from 143/5 to 157/9.
Last-over finishes. The 2026 game went to the 5th ball of the final over. In 2023 LSG won with 4 balls to spare after Mankad and Pooran blew away the chase of 183.
High scoring and big chases. The 19 May 2025 game produced 411 runs, the most in the rivalry. LSG made 205/7 on a 115-run opening stand between Marsh (65 off 39) and Markram (61 off 38). SRH answered with 206/4 in 18.2 overs.
In March 2025 LSG chased 191 in 16.1 overs. Pooran’s 70 came off 26 balls and had a strike rate of 269.23, the highest by anyone chasing 190 or more in the IPL.
Individual brilliance. Head’s 89 not out off 30 balls (8 fours, 8 sixes) is the top score in the rivalry. Abhishek made a fifty in 18 balls in May 2025 and finished with 59 off 20, including 4 consecutive sixes off Ravi Bishnoi.
Krunal Pandya took 3/18 and made 34 off 23 in April 2023. Shami’s 2/9 in 2026 is the stingiest spell of the lot.
The games that moved the record. The 2024 match gave SRH their first win over LSG, and it came with 62 balls left. Sanjiv Goenka’s animated conversation with KL Rahul after it became the story of the night.
The May 2025 win ended LSG’s playoff chances.
SRH vs LSG playoff and knockout match history
SRH and LSG have never met in an IPL playoff, qualifier, eliminator or final. All 7 matches were league games, so the playoff head-to-head is 0-0.
Both teams have played knockout cricket separately.
- SRH won the 2016 title and lost the finals of 2018 and 2024. They also lost the 2026 Eliminator after finishing 3rd.
- LSG reached the Eliminator in 2022 (lost to RCB) and 2023 (lost to MI) and have no final.
The nearest thing to a knockout was 19 May 2025. LSG needed a win to stay alive and SRH won by 6 wickets with 10 balls to spare. That’s the only meeting with a season-ending edge to it.
In high-pressure games, SRH have the better résumé: a title and 3 finals against LSG’s 2 exits in the Eliminator. In the head-to-head itself, LSG lead 5-2.
