Mitchell Marsh is LSG’s highest run scorer in IPL 2026, but in their 11th match of the ongoing season, which is taking place at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai against Chennai Super Kings, he could only manage to score 10 runs from 10 balls. Despite getting out for a low score on Sunday (May 10), Marsh managed to take his tally of runs past the 1000-mark in the IPL for Lucknow Super Giants. He is the fastest batter to score 1000 runs in the world’s richest franchise cricket league for the Lucknow-based franchise and overall sixth batter to score 1000 IPL runs for one team in less than 25 innings.
