LSG vs MI: Live Score and Update
LSG vs MI: LSG bow out of the IPL!
Mumbai Indians move ahead in the IPL 2024! Lucknow Super Giants are eliminated from the IPL 2024! Chasing 182, just one batter crossed 20 for the Lucknow Super Giants. A five-for. Three run-outs. Losing the last 8 wickets for 32 runs. Akash Madhwal now equals the legendary Anil Kumble’s record for the most economical five-for in the history of IPL. Mumbai Indians thump Lucknow Super Giants by 81 runs.
It’s Gujrat Titans vs Mumbai Indians in the Qualifier 2 on Friday!
LSG vs MI: LSG collapse!
A horrid and panicking period of play for the Lucknow Super Giants! Just making silly mistakes under pressure. They were 74/2 at a moment but are reduced to 100/9 in 15 overs. Mumbai Indians just need 1 wicket to win this game and progress further!
LSG vs MI: MI strike back with quick wickets!
Piyush Chawla broke the deadly partnership by scalping the LSG skipper. And then Akash Madhwal strikes twice in two successive balls to remove Ayush Badoni and Nicholas Pooran. The ball to Nicholas Pooran was just a classic test match beauty, catching the lefty’s outside edge. Mumbai Indians now in the front seat with half the LSG side back in the hut! LSG are 75/5 after 10 overs. Need 108 runs from 60 balls.
LSG vs MI: LSG get a good start!
Identical start for Lucknow Super Giants! Lost both openers in the powerplay and then a Western Australian batter came out counter-attacking! Stoinis smashed Shokeen for 4,4,6 in the final over of the powerplay! LSG end the powerplay at 54/2! Need 129 runs in 84 balls. A crucial partnership building here for LSG, MI need to break this quickly!
Jordan gets Mayers!
Jordan cramps Mayers with a short delivery on off, and Mayers follows through with the pull and splices it to mid-on. Both openers back in the hut and Mumbai Indians are on top now! Just the start they would have wanted defending a score in this knock-out game!
Madhwal strikes!
Madhwal bowls a length about fourth stump, the ball appearing to straighten after being angled in. Mankad had built room for an assault early on, and then hurled a massive one. The ball landed on the fielder’s glove after flying off the outer portion of the bat. LSG lose one early!
Impact Player (LSG): Kyle Mayers is the impact player, He replaces Yash Thakur!
LSG vs MI: MI end with 182/8!
A handy cameo from Nehal Wadhera has taken Mumbai Indians to 182/8 at the end of 20 overs! But with 100 runs scored already at the half-way mark, they would feel they could have ended with 10-15 more runs! The credit must go to Naveen-ul-Haq who picked a 4-fer including Green and Surya in a span of just three deliveries. He pulled the game back for LSG!
The target for Lucknow Super Giants is 183 runs in 120 balls. The pitch saw less turn than yesterday, which suggest it is a better batting wicket! But LSG have to bat well to chase this target! They do have a tall batting order but it has misfired more often than not?.. Who’ll hop on the plane to Ahmedabad and join GT in Qualifier 2??.. We’re about to find out in the next couple of hours!
Impact Player (MI): Nehal Wadhera is in as Impact Player. Surya has been subbed out. He comes out to bat as Tim David is dismissed!
LSG vs MI: Tilak & David stabilize MI with a steady partnership!
MI has been pushed back by the two wickets in one over. Tilak Varma and Tim David, on the other hand, are batting wisely and preparing for the final attack. On this course, a score of 175-180 is extremely good. But a wicket will bring relatively week batters to the crease, so the onus would be on these two! MI are 131/4 after 15 overs.
Naveen-ul-Haq gets the big wicket!
JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED FOR LSG! The Super Giants have stormed back with two wickets in three balls. Naveen-ul-Haq breaks the partnership. These two were taking the game away, this is a Important strike.
A leg-cutter bowled fuller at 107 kph deceives Surya who was looking to loft this out of the ground! He ends up chipping it to Gowtham. And then another slower off-cutter beats a driving Green! That’s T20 Cricket for you, the game changes in no time! MI are 105/4 after 11 overs.
LSG vs MI: SKY-Green slay LSG!
Cameron Green and Suryakumar Yadav have sent the pitch reports for a toss. They are making batting look so easy on a barren, dry and tricky surface! The partnership is 60 runs now in just 34 balls. If these two play like this, MI could end up with a massive total! MI are 98/2 after 10 overs. Super Giants would be worried and right now and need to break the partnership ASAP!
LSG vs MI: MI lose both openers in the powerplay!
Edged and taken! as Ishan Kishan failed to execute the upper cut and edges it to Pooran! LSG pacers doing great wonders, sending both MI openers back in successive overs. But Cameron Green and Suryakumar Yadav have come out counter-attacking! The two ensure Mumbai Indians get a very good start on this tricky Chepauk surface! MI are 62/2 after 6 overs.
Hitman departs!
Looked promising but throws his wicket away! How often do we this from Rohit Sharma? Shimmies down the wicket, attempting to loft this over cover, but fails to get elevation. Straight to Badoni at cover, who grabs it, and Naveen-ul-Haq has struck in his first over. LSG break the opening stand for 30 runs.

Build-Up..
The Indian Premier League 2024 Eliminator between Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians will be played in Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium. There are no second chances tonight!! If you lose, you are out! That’s why it’s called the eliminator!!! Follow the feed for LSG vs MI: Live Score and Update.
Lucknow Super Giants finished third on the points table with 17 points in 14 games. They have won their last three games. Lucknow Super Giants survived the Rinku scare to edge past Knight Riders by a run. The win booked their place at the play-offs in their last league game.
Mumbai Indians have won three of their last four games and finished fourth with 8 wins in 14 games. Interestingly, their only loss in the last four games came against the team they face in the Eliminator. They qualified after a little help from the Gujrat Titans, who knocked out RCB to clear the way for Mumbai.
LSG have a 3-0 head-to-head record against Mumbai Indians, but so did the Gujarat Titans against Chennai before the qualifier. So, don’t let the past deceive the present.
What to Expect: With each passing game, the surface at MA Chidambaram Stadium becomes slower. The surface is likely to provide plenty of assistance to spinners, while batters may need some time to adjust. Anything above 165 is a nice score, and batting first is desirable.
