Lucknow Super Giants claimed their sixth victory of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Season by defeating Mumbai Indians at Ekana Stadium. After winning the toss, Lucknow Super Giants opted to bowl first against Mumbai Indians at their home ground, Ekana. In response, the MI batting line-up struggled to perform and could only manage to score 144 runs in 20 overs. The phenomenal spell of Mohsin Khan and the economical spell of Naveen-ul-Haq prevented the MI batters from hitting any big shots during the match.
With their win against Mumbai Indians, Lucknow moved up to number 3 in the points table with 16 points. If LSG continues their winning streak in upcoming matches, they will easily qualify for the playoffs.
