Lucknow Super Giants win by seven wickets! A dominant chase from the visitors as the openers set the tone with a blazing 135-run partnership, effectively taking the game away in the powerplay itself. Nicholas Pooran then finished the job in style with a fluent 32 off 17 balls, ensuring a comfortable finish to the chase.
