LSG vs MI Dream11 Prediction, IPL Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Updates For Match 48 of IPL 2024

Both MI and LSG lost their previous game and would be hoping to return to winning ways.

Preview

Mumbai Indians (MI) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will play each other in the 48th match of the IPL 2024. The match will take place at Bharat Ratna Sri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on April 30 at 7:30 PM (IST). Both teams would be desperate for a win, given the stiff challenge in the mid-table at the moment. No team has officially been eliminated from the league, and this promises to be a good contest.

LSG are placed in the fifth position in the points table. They have a total of five wins and four losses in their nine matches so far. Their positive net rate of +0.059 has kept them ahead of DC in the table. On the other hand, MI is placed in the ninth position in the points table. Only RCB are below them in the standings. They have three wins and six losses in their nine matches. Their net run rate of -0.261 has pushed them below PBKS in the table. They would be hoping to beat LSG by a big margin.

Both teams lost their previous matches. While MI lost to DC by just 10 runs in a high-scoring thriller, LSG lost to RR in their own backyard by conceding the highest run chase at home. They have some good players in their lineup like KL Rahul, Quinton De Kock, Marcus Stoinis, Nicholas Pooran, Krunal Pandya, Matt Henry, and others. MI has a good set of players in their lineup like Ishan Kishan, Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, and others.

Pitch Report

The match between MI and LSG is set to take place at Bharat Ratna Sri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. Lucknow has changed as a pitch this season. In the last season, it was slow and difficult to bat on. This season, batters do not mind batting in the middle. Bowlers can make use of the long boundaries. Pacers can use bouncers and slower ones, while spinners can toss up the deliveries.


Captains

Quinton de Kock LSG | wk – 8.5

Quinton De Kock has not batted well for a long time in the last few games. The wicketkeeper-batter would be hoping to return to form ahead of the T20 WC 2024, which must bring the best out of him. The South African is a good batter and is a good fielder too.

Hardik Pandya MI | bat – 9

Hardik Pandya returned to form in the last game by playing a fine cameo lower down the order. He has not been able to deliver as well with the bat or with the ball. But as MI is in a dire need of wins, Hardik would be hungry to step up as a player.

KL Rahul LSG | bat – 9

KL Rahul has been in good form in the last few matches. The star batter has been good with the bat and as a gloveman. Even as a skipper, he has improved. Rahul will be useful in different roles and is a good fantasy pick due to the variety of contributions.


Top

Nicholas Pooran LSG | WK – 9

Nicholas Pooran is one of the best T20 batters in the world. The Southpaw has finished a lot of games for LSG. He has been arguably the best batter of LSG. Even as a fielder, he can claim some athletic catches and change the complexion of the game.

Marcus Stoinis LSG | BAT – 8

Marcus Stoinis played one of the greatest knocks in the history of the league when he scored an unbeaten 120*(63) against CSK to chase down 211. Against RR, he was dismissed for a duck. As per the law of averages, he could perform well against MI.

Krunal Pandya LSG | ALL – 8

Krunal Pandya has been underrated as a performer this season. The All-rounder has contributed both as a batter and as a bowler. He can claim wickets as a bowler and be economical at the same time. With the bat, he can play a few cameos lower down the order.


Budget

Ayush Badoni LSG | all – 7

Ayush Badoni is a good finisher. He can play a few cameos lower down the order and make an impact on the result. If required, he can bowl an over or two. Not to forget, he is a brilliant fielder in the outfield and takes some stunning catches.

Amit Mishra LSG | bowl – 8.5

Amit Mishra played the last game against RR and picked a wicket. The 41-year-old is still going strong and will be backed by LSG for a couple of games more. As the match is in Lucknow, he can be one of the key bowlers for his side.

Nuwan Thushara MI | bowl – 6.5

Nuwan Thushara had a forgettable outing against RR. However, the Sri Lankan has everything it takes to be a leading bowler for MI. His contribution at the death can be a game-changer for MI. Even with the new ball, he can take wickets.


Avoid Player Message

Mohammad Nabi MI | ALL – 8.5

Matt Henry LSG | BOWL – 6
