Netizens went berserk as LSG bowlers dismantled the entire KKR batting lineup during their clash in IPL 2026. Both sides came against each other in the 38th clash of the season at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. The game saw LSG skipper Rishabh Pant win the toss, and invite the rivals to put the score on the board first. KKR, on the other hand, who entered the game on the back of their first win of the season, aimed to continue their dominance.
However, what unfolded was beyond their expectations. The LSG bowling unit consisting of stars such as Mohsin Khan, George Linde, Mohammed Shami, and others, went all guns blazing right from the beginning. Opener Tim Seifert was the first to depart on a duck, followed by skipper Ajinkya Rahane. Angkrish Raghuvanshi was given out for obstructing the field, while players such as Rovman Powell, Anukul Roy, and Ramandeep Singh couldn’t score in double digits. On LSG’s side, Mohsin Khan picked a fifer, while George Linde came up with one wicket.

Kkr is a shit team this year but what a loser team LSG is man.. Their players claim catches knowing they're not out Their captain appeals for "obstruction of the field" Absolute small dick behaviour. This is why lsg has won nothing.

After the frenetic run fest yesterday, sanity seems to have been restored today. However, part of this is also due to the struggling batting units of KKR and CSK who just haven't been able to find consistency. Plus both GT and LSG have two of the most potent bowling units in the…

- Five wicket haul. - Wicket Maiden vs DC. - Wicket Maiden vs RR. - Wicket Maiden vs KKR. He missed the whole IPL 2025 due to injury, LSG backed him, helped financially for surgery & they are getting the reward with performance from Mohsin. This is great T20 bowling 🫡 pic.twitter.com/A0iYiOKjTF

Mohsin Khan Fiery Spell Dismantles KKR’s Spine
LSG has been a good bowling side this IPL season. Their bowlers have successfully dominated, keeping in check batting heavy teams like Royal Challengers Bangalore, Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad. Mostly in the black soil Ekanna pitch, their seamers have benefited mostly from the bounce and slow pitch, and LSG today too has taken that advantage against KKR.
Mohsin Khan has been lethal tonight, first sending Seifert out on a duck, then Rahane and Powell after the power play, also breaking the partnership building by taking Cameron Green and thereafter Anukul Roy. Mohsin made his debut in the IPL 2022 season, where he took 14 wickets and was in contention to join the Indian team, but his career was threatened by an injury. He returned playing for LSG in 2023, although he again suffered injury in the 2025 Vijay Hazare Trophy, Mohsin Khan was still retained by LSG for IPL 2026.
Mohsin has 3 wicket maidens in IPL 2026 so far against RR, DC and now KKR
