The Chennai Super Kings–Punjab Kings IPL record changed hands in their latest game. Punjab chased 210 in Chennai on 3 April 2026, taking their winner-assigned total to 17 victories against Chennai’s 16 from 33 meetings. It is a narrow lead with a counting detail: the clubs once finished level after 20 overs, but Punjab won the Super Over.
That 2010 finish is part of the franchise history even though Punjab then played as Kings XI. So are three successive Punjab wins in the most recent meetings. The numbers below stop at the completed 2026 contest, not an assumed result from IPL 2027.

Four days earlier, Punjab had chased Chennai’s 162/7 for the loss of three wickets. The table keeps Chennai’s score first and Punjab’s second on every row so the results can be compared without swapping columns between home and away fixtures.
