Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) all-rounder Marcus Stoinis revealed that he was aware of not getting Cricket Australia's central contract for the 2024-25 season but he is keen to feature and contribute for the Baggy Greens in the T20 World Cup 2024. Last month, Stoinis was one of the biggest names who was snubbed from CA's contract list of 23 players. One month later, Stoinis broke records at Chepauk against the Chennai Super Kings in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.
It was the Marcus Stoinis show in Chepauk on Tuesday as the Lucknow Super Giants secured a thrilling 6-wicket victory against Chennai Super Kings, handing Ruturaj Gaikwad's team its first home defeat of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season. Stoinis scored his maiden IPL century, cancelling Ruturaj's hundred to take his team to the 4th spot in the points table. Usually, whenever finishes in Chepauk are talked about, it's MS Dhoni whose name is spotted in the headlines, but this time, it was a different MS (Marcus Stoinis) who stole the limelight.

Apart from IPL, Rahul is fighting for the wicketkeeper's spot in India's squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup, which will be co-hosted by the United States and West Indies.
MS Dhoni and Chennai is a love story that never gets boring. Whenever MS Dhoni appears at the MA Chidambaram Stadium for Chennai Super Kings, the city erupts.

But the viral moment happened when CSK were bowling. On the last ball of the 13th over by Tushar Deshpande, the umpire signalled a wide on a delivery to Marcus Stoinis.
