Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) triumphed over Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in a nail-biting Super Over finish during their IPL 2026 match on April 26. Rinku Singh played a pivotal role, scoring an unbeaten 83 runs off 51 balls, which included four consecutive sixes in the final over. His performance was emotionally dedicated to his late father, Khanchandra Singh, who passed away in February after battling cancer. Rinku's fiancée, Priya Saroj, expressed her joy, stating, "He played for my father-in-law. I am missing him a lot today, and this is for him." KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane acknowledged Rinku's contribution as a significant turning point in the match. The victory marked KKR's second win of the season, placing them eighth in the standings with five points from eight matches. Sunil Narine's exceptional bowling in the Super Over, where he took two wickets while conceding just one run, helped secure the win, with KKR chasing down the two-run target on the first ball.
