Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants have met eight times in the IPL through 26 April 2026. Lucknow lead five wins to three, but the newest contest went Kolkata’s way only after a Super Over. Both sides made 155 in their regulation innings in Lucknow; KKR then restricted LSG to 1/2 and scored 4/0 to settle the game.
Lucknow won the first three meetings from 2022 into 2023. Kolkata cut that deficit with two wins in 2024, before Lucknow edged consecutive games in 2025 and early April 2026. The latest one-over decider narrowed the overall gap. A tied regulation score followed by a Super Over has a winner in the series ledger: it must not be shown as an unresolved tie or as a no-result.
