Mumbai vs Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) Pitch Report
In the game at Brabourne Stadium last night, both teams lost their openers in the powerplay. The thin layer of grass helped the seamers produce lateral movement. However, the bowlers took a beating as the ball got softer. The chasing team has won four of six games.
Mumbai vs LSG Probable Playing XIs
Probable XI for Mumbai: Rohit Sharma (c), Ishan Kishan (wk), Dewald Brevis*, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Kieron Pollard*, Jaydev Unadkat, Murugan Ashwin/Mayank Markande, Jasprit Bumrah, Tymal Mills*, Basil Thampi
Probable XI for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG): KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock* (wk), Marcus Stoinis*, Deepak Hooda, Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, Jason Holder*, Krishnappa Gowtham, Dushmantha Chameera*, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan
Power Players for Mumbai vs LSG Match
Suryakumar Yadav has shone in all three games: 52, 68*, and 43. He has provided bonus fantasy points with a strike rate of 158 and by smashing 23 boundaries.
Quinton de Kock has scored the bulk of the reason for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). His 188 runs have come with a strike rate of 132. He will be up against his former franchise.
Between the two ducks, KL Rahul has scores of 40, 68, and 24. Although he has not gone all guns blazing yet, he will lock horns against a struggling bowling attack and on a wicket that has been a paradise for the batters. Tonight’s probably the night for a KL special.
After a blistering start to the tournament, Ishan Kishan has been out of sorts. That being said, his 81* came at the very venue. LSG will have to be mindful of their lines and lengths. Otherwise, it’s going to be a slug-fest.
Smart Picks for Mumbai vs LSG Match
Deepak Hooda has got starts in all games. He has collected 155 runs at an impressive average of 155 and a strike rate of 130. He has taken the solitary wicket of Matthew Wade with his off-spin.
Tymal Mills may take a leaf out of T Natarajan’s bowling from last evening. The English bowler has the luxury of bowling in the powerplay and at the death. Thus far, he has taken 6 wickets at 22 including the three-for against Rajasthan.

Amongst both teams, Avesh Khan has been the most effective. He has taken 8 wickets in five games. On the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah is yet to find his rhythm. He has gone wicketless in three of five matches.
Rohit Sharma averages a mere 21 this season. He isn’t the same Hitman in the Indian T20 League as he is for India.
Dewald Brevis has repaid the faith shown in him by the franchise. The 18-year-old went all guns blazing and blasted five sixes in his 49-run knock against Punjab. Batting at No.3 has suited his brand of cricket.
Tilak Verma has been the most consistent performer for Mumbai since the start of the tournament. His scores read 22, 61, 38*, 0, and 36. It’s the U-19 stars that have been keeping Mumbai’s hopes alive.
Striking at the death is Jason Holder’s speciality. The West Indian all-rounder has sniped up 5 wickets in three games.

Mumbai vs LSG Match Preview
The bowling departments of both teams have not put up notable performances. Neither have they managed to contain runs nor take wickets at regular intervals. Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) have at least batted with aggression, while Mumbai – in their coach Mahela Jayawardene’s words – have not been ruthless.
