THE LOWDOWN

LUCKNOW SUPER GIANTS

  • Two points here for Lucknow Super Giants would keep their play-off fate in their own hands heading into the final round of 2023 IPL fixtures, with them currently one point ahead of the chasing pack in the top four.
  • The Super Giants have been afforded such a cushion following a hard-fought seven-wicket victory away to Sunrisers Hyderabad, which saw them chase down 183 in 19.2 overs.

MUMBAI INDIANS

  • With four wins in their last five, Mumbai Indians have put themselves in an excellent position to secure a play-off place and victory here would make it impossible for Lucknow to overtake them with a game to go.
  • The form of Rohit Sharma’s side with the bat in particular has been superb and a score of 218/5 batting first was enough to overcome Gujarat Titans by 27 runs, Suryakumar Yadav lighting up Wankhede Stadium with an unbeaten 103 from 49 balls, his maiden IPL century.

THE PREDICTION

Lucknow Super Giants are a resilient unit and have proved that across the tournament. The fact that they aren’t relying on other results but their own to finish in the top four is testament to that and currently this is without the services of captain KL Rahul. However, they have suffered from inconsistency in recent rounds, whilst the same cannot be said of Mumbai Indians, who are starting to hit a different gear. Suryakumar Yadav finding form has been crucial to their success and when he is on song, there is no better batter in the IPL. History tells you that when Mumbai Indians get on a roll, they are very hard to stop and backing them to overcome Lucknow should be seriously considered.
