The highly anticipated 16th group-stage encounter of IPL 2025 will witness the Mumbai Indians (MI) locking horns with the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) this evening. Under the leadership of Hardik Pandya, MI have had a turbulent start to their campaign, securing just one victory in three matches. They currently occupy the sixth position in the IPL 2025 points table and will be eager to gain momentum with a win tonight.

Mumbai Indians have sorely missed the services of their ace pacer, Jasprit Bumrah, in their last three encounters. The star bowler suffered a back injury during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, which subsequently ruled him out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
