In a night to forget for Chennai Super Kings, fast bowler Anshul Kamboj etched his name into the IPL record books for all the wrong reasons. During Friday's clash against Lucknow Super Giants at Ekana Stadium, the India international endured a nightmare spell, conceding a staggering 63 runs from just 16 deliveries.

Kamboj's economy rate of 23.63 now stands as the worst in IPL history for any bowler who has completed at least two overs in an innings. The previous record belonged to Washington Sundar, who leaked 46 runs in two overs during an IPL 2024 match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals.

The 23-year-old's expensive outing proved costly for CSK, as LSG snapped their losing streak and returned to winning ways. For fans tracking the IPL playoff race, this result has major implications—CSK's postseason hopes took a significant hit, with some already dubbing the team "toll collectors" for the 2026 season.

Whether you're a bowler looking to avoid a similar fate or a fan analyzing the numbers, this match serves as a stark reminder of how quickly momentum can shift in T20 cricket. For those passionate about the game, every delivery counts—and sometimes, even the best can have an off day.
