MI vs LSG Match Preview:
As the IPL league stages are near their conclusion, every match becomes crucial, especially for teams positioned in the middle of the points table. On Sunday, two such teams will lock horns in the sweltering Mumbai afternoon. MI, after a poor start in the season are riding high with a blistering comeback. The return of 360-Suryakumar Yadav and explosive Rohit Sharma into forms helped the side winning four consecutive games. Also, their bowling led by Trent Boult and Jasprit Bumrah shown promise. Currently, positioned at fourth on points table, MI are favourites to win.
LSG, on the other side had a mixed season, with 5 wins in 9 games the visitors are still in the hunt for playoffs. The batting side of LSG depends heavily on the top 3. Nicolos Pooran after blistering start to the season has registered 3 single digits scores in 3 matches. Also, the most expensive player in the history of IPL, Rishabh Pant have put up a deeply disappointing show. Their bowling unit too has been vulnerable at times but they also saved LSG on a few occasions during crucial last overs. The visitors have all the might to put up a great show on Sunday.
