IPL 2022, MI Vs LSG: Where To Get Mumbai Indians Vs Lucknow Super Giants Live Streaming
Mumbai Indians are winless in five matches in IPL 2022. In the 10-team league, another defeat will leave the former champions facing early exit.
Mumbai Indians have lost all their matches so far this season?-- Delhi Capitals, Rajasthan Royals, Kolkata Knight Riders,?Royal Challengers Bangalore and Punjab Kings. IPL is a ten-team league, and five have already exposed Mumbai's?weaknesses. Not a good reading for the most successful side in IPL. But, Rohit Sharma & Co. can still redeem themselves.?They still have nine matches to play in the revamped league?stage. A win on Saturday can trigger a revival. History is?witness. They have done it.
For KL Rahul's Super Giants, another scalp will only increase their confidence. After losing to fellow debutants Gujarat?Titans, they won three matches on the trot -- beating?Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi?Capitals. But they lost to Rajasthan Royals in a tense chase.
Team News
Mumbai Indians: As Rohit said after their most recent defeat,?nothing is working for them. They even resorted to fielding?only two overseas players, but a win still eludes them. On?Saturday, they can field the full quota of foreign players in?the line-up and give a chance to the likes of Tim David, Riley?Meredith and Fabian Allen.
Lucknow Super Giants: They have a very strong team. Unlike?Mumbai Indians, they are spoilt for choices. The presence of?former Mumbai stars, Quinton de Kock and Krunal Pandya augurs well. And with star all-rounders like Marcus Stoinis and Jason Holder, Lucknow at least on paper look like a winning team. But again, picking the best XI is the tricky part.
