The total proved to be one too many runs for LSG. Mitchell Marsh and Ayush Badoni who opened the batting today, provided a steady start for the visitor but the rest of the lineup, barring Rishabh Pant to an extent, could not keep up with the climbing asking rate and lost their wickets in the process.
In the end, LSG fell short of the target by 54 runs, and slumped to its fourth defeat of the season.
