Rohit Sharma is 33-runs away to reach the milestone of 11,500 runs in T20 cricket
The 48th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 will be played between Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants at Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. The match is scheduled on April 29th from 7:30 pm.
Mumbai Indians faced a defeat in their last game against Delhi Capitals by 10 runs while chasing 258. Mumbai Indians have currently lost two consecutive games and have to win all of their remaining games to qualify for the playoffs.
Lucknow Super Giants, on the other hand, lost to Rajasthan Royals at their home ground in the last game where their bowlers failed to defend another score. LSG too has to step up in the penultimate end of the tournament.
Lucknow Super Giants are currently ranked 5th in the points table with 5 wins, while Mumbai Indians are ranked 9th with 3 wins.
Mumbai Indians will be led by Hardik Pandya, who finally showed some glimpses of his power hitting, while Lucknow Super Giants will be led by KL Rahul, who played a commendable innings in the last game.
Here are some records that could be broken in the match:
1. Hitman Eyes 11,500 T20 runs
Rohit Sharma, who gained form in the initial matches, is currently going through a bad patch. MI would want him to give good starts. Rohit Sharma (11,467) needs another thirty-three runs to reach 11,500 runs in T20s.
2. Nabi All Set to Take 350 T20 Wickets
Mohammad Nabi is an experienced veteran and a seasoned campaigner having played in different leagues. Mohammad Nabi (346) needs four scalps to reach the landmark of 350 wickets in the T20 format.
3. KL to Hit 400 IPL Fours
Lucknow Super Giants Skipper KL Rahul is in perfect touch scoring consistent runs. KL Rahul (389) needs another eleven fours to reach 400 fours in IPL.
Mumbai Indians are in a do-or-die situation in every match from now, and a loss here would end their playoff chances. Lucknow would try to resume their winning run.
