Lucknow Super Giants to win
Lucknow Super Giants will take on Mumbai Indians in the 48th match of the IPL 2024. The game will be played at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow and will start at 7:30 PM IST on April 30.
Lucknow Super Giants suffered a defeat against Rajasthan Royals in the last game. Having posted 196-5, the team failed to defend the target. LSG are fifth on the points table, with five wins and four defeats. They need to win three games out of their remaining five matches to qualify for the playoffs.
Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians’ playoff chances hang by a thread. They lost to Delhi Capitals in the last game. MI have been very ordinary this season and won just three games out of the nine matches played. However, MI are just not out of the playoff race. If MI can win all their remaining five games, they will qualify for the playoffs, however, it won’t be an easy task given how the team has fared so far.
TV channels: In India, LSG vs MI match will be available on Star Network. The match will also be available on Sky Sports (UK), Fox Sports (Australia), Sky Sport NZ (New Zealand), SuperSport (South Africa) and Willow TV (USA)
IPL 2024 Live Streaming: LSG vs MI fixture will be live-streamed on Jio Cimema in India. In Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal, the matches can be watched live on Yupp TV. Other channels where the match will be streamed live are Willow, Foxtel Go and Kayo.
Toss will be crucial as teams want to chase in Lucknow because of the dew factor. RR chased nearly 200 runs in last game thus captain winning the toss should chase.
The pitch at the Ekana Stadium is slow, however, it gets better in the second innings as the ball skids from the surface if there is some dew around. Spinners are going to play a big role and wickets with new ball will be key. A score of around 200 should be par.
The temperature will range between 40 and 23 degrees. The humidity will be 14 per cent and the wind speed will be 27 km/h.

The only change we see in the Lucknow Super Giants playing XI is Mayak Yadav replacing Mohsin Khan. Mayank has returned to bowling and he has got enough rest as well. Since LSG face a situation where they can’t afford to lose a game, Mayank Yadav should be drafted back in the playing XI.
M Siddharth, Deepak Hooda/ Amit Mishra, K Gowtham, Yudhvir Singh, Arshin Kulkarnie
Deepak Hooda could be used as an impact player if LSG are chasing a score and Amit Mishra can be used as an impact player if LSG are defending.
LSG have blown hot and cold so far. They have played nine matches, winning five and losing four. The team could have won a couple more games had they capitalized on crunch moments.
Quinton de Kock, KL Rahul (c & wk), Ayush Badoni, Marcus Stoinis, Nicholas Pooran, Krunal Pandya, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohsin Khan/Mayank Yadav, Matt Henry, Yash Thakur, Deepak Hooda/Amit Mishra
Dream11 Captain Options: KL Rahul, Nicholas Pooran
Dream11 Vice Captain Options: Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav
| Wicket-Keepers | Quinton de Kock, KL Rahul |
|---|---|
| Batters | Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav, Rohit Sharma, Nicholas Pooran |
| All-Rounders | Hardik Pandya, Marcus Stoinis |
| Bowlers | Yash Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Piyush Chawla |
Mumbai Indians have tried many combinations but it has not paid off. The team would like to bolster their spin attack in Lucknow thus Mohammad Nabi is likely to retain his place which was under a threat otherwise. Luke Wood is set to be left out for Gerald Coetzee, who missed the last game.
Namam Dhir, Shams Mulani, Dawald Brevis, Kumar Kartikeya/Nehal Wadhera
MI might want to try spinner Kumar Kartikeya in Lucknow thus he could be used as an impact if MI are batting first while in a chase, Nehal Wadhera can be used.
MI have been very ordinary this season. They have played nine games, winning just three. They face a must win situation as a defeat will mean the team won’t be able to qualify for playoffs on their own.
Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan (wk), Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (c), Tim David, Mohammad Nabi, Piyush Chawla, Geralad Coetzee, Jasprit Bumrah, Nuwan Thushara, Nehal Wadhera/Kumar Kartikeya
LSG and MI have not played many games but LSG have dominated in most matches the teams have come face to face, with LSG winning three out of the four clashes.
| Matches Played | LSG Won | MI Won | Tie | NR | |

LSG are being deemed as favourites for the upcoming clash. The team has a great record at home and won three out of the five games in Lucknow this year.
We suggest backing LSG to win. MI have not looked a composed team this year. The batters have not scored runs while barring Bumrah, the bowling has been ordinary. LSG on the other hand look top notch, especially after KL Rahul and Marcus Stoinis’ return to form.
KL Rahul, Nicholas Pooran and Marcus Stoinis are the main batters for LSG. Rahul has peaked at the right moment and has scored two massive fifties in the previous two innings at the Ekana Stadium. He is nearing the 400 run mark in tournament. Stoinis and Pooran also carry match winning abilities. Stoinis scored a hundred against CSK while Pooran has consistently scored runs.
Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma will be match winners with the bat for MI. While all have blown hot and cold, most of the MI hopes rest on him. Rohit and Tilak have scored 300+ runs for MI while Surya has scored a couple of good fifties.
Matt Henry, Marcus Stoinis and Krunal Pandya will be good options with the ball. Henry could get early wickets with the new ball and he has decent record vs Rohit Sharma. Stoinis and Pandya could be handy as the surface might be on the slower side and suit slower bowlers.
For MI, Jasprit Bumrah has been outstanding, taking 14 wickets this season. Geralad Coetzee has also managed to take 12 wickets. Someone like a Piyush Chawla can also be very handy at the Ekana Stadium.
LSG are favourites to win. LSG are clearly a better team on paper. MI have a fiery batting line-up but players have been out of form. Also, barring Bumrah, they don’t seem to have much quality in bowling. LSG, on the other hand, have been great with the bat while the conditions will suit LSG bowlers more due to the presence of multiple good spinners. For us, LSG are favourites.
