Lucknow Super Giants flourished with a six-wicket win over hosts Chennai Super Kings on Tuesday night with an unbeaten 124 by Marcus Stoinis to lead the charge. 

Speaking at the post-match press conference, LSG's cricket consultant Adam Vogue called it a tremendous game of cricket. 

'I thought the batting on both sides was outstanding. The way CSK, put us under pressure with the ball and I didn't think it was probably our best night execution wise, but, we needed someone to stand up, in our batting innings,' Vogue said. 

He was all-praise for the Australian all-rounder, 'And Marcus Stoinis has played an outstanding innings. But, I guess at the halfway stage, you could certainly feel the dew in the outfield. And, I certainly think it's played a part in the back end of the game. So, ended up being a good toss to win.' 

Stoinis scored 124 not out off 63 balls as Lucknow put dewy conditions to good use to successfully chase down the highest IPL total at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium.
