Just before the third rain delay at the Ekana Stadium on May 07, the Australian batter Mitchell Marsh scored his second IPL century, representing the Lucknow Super Giants against the Royal Challengers Bangalore. His first century came when he played for the same side in 2025 against the Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad.

 

Today he scored his 100th run in 49 balls, hitting a boundary off Sherfane Shepherd, moving to 101.
