Mohsin Khan produced career-best figures of 5/23 against KKR at Ekana on 26 April 2026 — the LSG left-arm seamer's first IPL five-for. The bowling effort was eventually overshadowed by Mohammed Shami's final-ball six and Sunil Narine's Super Over for KKR, but the spell will stand in Mohsin's career as the night he announced himself as a death-overs specialist.

Rishabh Pant's first season as Lucknow Super Giants captain has produced LSG's worst IPL campaign — 4 points from 9 matches and bottom of the IPL 2026 table — alongside personal form below his historical standards. Public commentary has called for him to step down from the captaincy and focus on his batting; LSG's franchise leadership has not yet acted.

Following the public controversy over Angkrish Raghuvanshi's 26 April 2026 'obstructing the field' dismissal, the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) — guardians of the Laws of Cricket — issued a formal clarification backing the third umpire's call. The MCC stated that Raghuvanshi had wilfully obstructed by taking a route that wasn't the most direct way to the other end, drifting off the strip and into the path of Mohammed Shami's throw.

9 April 2026
Kolkata Knight Riders opener Finn Allen was given out for 9 in the second over of his side's IPL 2026 chase against Lucknow Super Giants at Eden Gardens, after Digvesh Rathi took a low catch at the deep third boundary. Replays appeared to show Rathi's left foot brushing the rope. The on-field umpire ruled the catch fair without referring it upstairs; the third umpire later confirmed the decision under fan and broadcaster criticism, prompting KKR to issue a public statement that the call "should have gone upstairs" first.
