Background
Lucknow: Match number 63 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 will witness Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) take on Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Tuesday. At the outset, this encounter promises to be a mouth-watering one. For starters, both these teams are in with a real chance of finishing inside the top four. While MI are at 14 points from 12 matches, LSG are at 13 points from 12 games and while MI are placed third on the table, LSG are right behind them on the fourth place.
It has been a bizarre season for the Blue and Gold Brigade. It is easy to just look at what all isn't working for them and underestimate them. Their pace speedtser Jofra Archer has been ruled out, Jasprit Bumrah wasn't available from Day 1 and with Rohit Sharma struggling with form and Tilak Varma not certain, there is a lot that has gone wrong for MI with their bowling attack being one of the most expensive ones this season.
However, the fact that despite all of that and a forgettable start MI find themselves in with a chance to finish inside top two tells a story about how resilient this team has been. And now, they just can't afford to get complacent. They should hope that some of the things that didn't work for them somehow falls in place for the backend of this tournament and that will be the icing on the cake on what has been a dramatic campaign this season for MI.
Things would be different in Lucknow which is the tournament's lowest-scoring venue in 2023, contrary to MI's strength which has been their batting depth and chasing big totals. MI haven't yet beaten LSG in IPL but this time Lucknow will be without KL Rahul who had scored century in each of the two occasions these two teams met last season. Moreover, Krunal Pandya-led LSG have issues themselves to resolve to crack the consistency code which they would be in desperate need of especially if they see themselves going all the way.
