With slim chances of making the IPL 2026 playoffs, Mumbai Indians (MI) must win all their remaining matches, starting with the game against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at Wankhede on May 4.
The five-time IPL champions have struggled this season, losing both matches to Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by significant margins. Captain Hardik Pandya is in his third season leading the team but hasn’t matched the success he had with Gujarat Titans.
If MI is to salvage their season, this match is crucial. LSG has faced issues on the field, often lacking direction and consistently misjudging their strategies. As the IPL’s 19th edition progresses, their batting order remains unclear.
