Mumbai Indians required a record chase to subdue Lucknow Super Giants, but it was not to be as the visitors fell 12 runs short after LSG posted 203-8 in a thrilling, action-packed, high-scoring match at the Ekana Stadium on Friday.
MI were without their most experienced batter Rohit Sharma — injured while batting in the nets the previous day — could manage 188/5, having LSG a much-needed win at home. This was the first time the home team had crossed the 200-run mark, and their bowlers, after floundering mid-innings, recovered well to defend the target amidst high drama.
