IPL 2025: MI look to keep up the winning streak as LSG reach Wankhede

Mumbai Indians have scripted one of the most exciting comebacks in the history of IPL. Starting IPL 2025 with a defeat against arch-rivals, Chennai Super Kings, MI seemed fated to repeat their struggles in this season as well. In the first five matches of the campaign, MI managed a sole victory as the team failed to finish the chases despite bringing the contest close. However, now, after 9 matches, MI have maintained a winning streak of 4 matches. The side, led by Hardik Pandya, beat CSK for the first time since IPL 2022 and LSG for the very first time as they charged on a high in the ongoing season. Lined up next is the MI vs LSG IPL 2025 match as Lucknow Super Giants head to Wankhede for a rematch against the five-time champions.

Mumbai Indians have won four matches on the trot to rank among the Top 4 at the IPL 2025 points table. With five victories in 9 matches, MI have collected 10 points and emerged as one of the top contenders for the playoff contention. Meanwhile, Lucknow Super Giants have managed the same points but rank sixth due to their NRR. The side, led by Rishabh Pant, has not shown consistency in their victories, with their run rate ranking in the negative. The side is still awaiting their skipper Rishabh Pant to show up with the bat. Meanwhile, the group relies on the likes of Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran, and Mitchell Marsh to lead the batting order.

In the LSG vs MI IPL 2025 match at Ekana, the Super Giants beat the visitors by 12 runs as Hardik Pandya failed to finish the dramatic chase. Overall, LSG boast a seamless head-to-head record against the five-time champions. Since IPL 2022, both the teams have faced each other 7 times with MI managing to win just a single fixture against the newer team. However, with the momentum of four wins, Mumbai Indians look poised to overturn the trend as LSG head to Wankhede.

For the MI vs LSG IPL 2025 match, the toss would make a substantial impact. Out of the four matches played at Wankhede this season, the team batting second has won three as dew plays a significant role in the latter part of the game. Meanwhile, as MI boast a lethal pace attack with Trent Boult, Deepak Chahar, and Jasprit Bumrah, LSG still await the return of Mayank Yadav. The pacer has joined the LSG camp for IPL 2025 after dealing with a back and toe injury. However, the timeline of Yadav's return to the LSG Playing XI is still unclear.
