The innings was anchored by captain Rishabh Pant, who smashed a scintillating 63 off 49 balls, including four boundaries and three towering sixes. His effort kept Lucknow in the game after early setbacks.

Nicholas Pooran (8) and Aiden Markram (6) failed to make an impact, falling cheaply to Khaleel Ahmed and Anshul Kamboj respectively. Mitchell Marsh contributed a brisk 30 off 25 balls, while Ayush Badoni added a useful 22 off 17 before being stumped by MS Dhoni off Ravindra Jadeja. Abdul Samad chipped in with a quickfire 20 off 11 balls but was run out in a sharp fielding effort by Dhoni.
