IPL 2024: We are almost in the final weeks of the group stage of the tournament. From here on, every win matters and you can’t afford to lose. It is a do-or-die match for Mumbai while Lucknow would like to re-enter the Top 4 in standings.
The Hitman Show
All eyes will be on Rohit Sharma on his birthday. The expectations will be high from Hitman and there is a high chance that he will deliver. He has looked in good touch in this IPL with even a century to his name.
KLassic Trouble
KL Rahul has always been a trouble for Mumbai Indians. He has played Mumbai 16 times and has scored 867 runs with an average of 87 and a strike rate of 136. This includes 3 centuries and 1 90s. If MI wants to win, then they have to get rid of him early because we have seen KL Rahul getting back in his vintage touch lately.
