Mumbai Indians (MI) have secured a spot in the playoffs of the Indian Premier League 2023 after an impressive victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad in their last league match. They will now face Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the Eliminator on May 24 at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
MI’s batting lineup is in excellent form, with Australia’s Cameron Green scoring a remarkable century in the previous match and captain Rohit Sharma finding his rhythm again. However, the team has some concerns regarding their bowling and will look to address that area before the match.
On the other hand, Lucknow Super Giants have executed most of their strategies effectively, which has been a major advantage for them. Quinton de Kock has provided solid starts as an opener, and Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran have been exceptional in their performances. The success of LSG heavily relies on their performances, especially under pressure. The contributions of Amit Mishra and Ravi Bishnoi will also be crucial.
