Series: Indian Premier League 2023

Lucknow Super Giants vs Mumbai Indians, Eliminator 24th May 7.30 PM IST

Venue:MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai

We are in the Eliminator game of the Indian Premier League 2023, and the Lucknow Super Giants will take on five-time title winners Mumbai Indians. The Super Giants won their last game against the Kolkata Knight Riders
and will look to carry this momentum. The Mumbai Indians have displayed good form with the bat in the last few games and come into this contest with a comprehensive win against the Sunrisers Hyderabad.
In the earlier contest between the two teams, Lucknow had won the game. However, Mumbai Indians are back in form, and their batsmen have done well. The Super Giants have struggled to fight the right opening combination
due to KL Rahul’s injury. The loser of this game would exit the tournament, and the stakes would be high for both teams. We expect a close contest between Mumbai’s batsmen and Lucknow’s bowlers.

Lucknow Super Giants Preview
Krunal Pandya’s side comes here with three consecutive wins. They held their nerves in the last game against the Kolkata Knight Riders to win by 1 run. Pandya shall like to see a strong show from his
bowlers as they are up against a destructive batting line-up. They had defeated Mumbai Indians in the league stage, and Pandya would like his players to take inspiration from that win.

Mumbai Indians Preview
Rohit Sharma’s side came out with a strong performance in their last league game. The five-time champions defeated the Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets to finish fourth on the points table. Sharma would be aware
of his side’s poor record against the Lucknow Super Giants. He would like a better show from his bowlers, as bowling has been a major weakness for the team.

Pitch Report
MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, is known for having a slow surface, and batsmen must work hard on this track to get their runs. Spinners enjoy bowling on this surface as the ball grips the surface and
takes a sharp turn. Fast bowlers who mix their lines and lengths have done well on this wicket.
