Lucknow Super Giants ended IPL 2024 with an 18-run victory over Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday. Mumbai Indians thus finish bottom of the 10-team table, with just 8 points from 14 games. Aided by a 109-run partnership between captain KL Rahul (55 off 41 balls) and Nicholas Pooran (75 off 29 balls), LSG scored a commendable 214 for 6. The visitors then scored at regular intervals to stop MI at 196 for 6 despite Rohit Sharma’s 68 off 38 deliveries and Naman Dhir’s reargaurd on 62 off 28 balls.
Earlier, Rahul first steadied the innings with Marucs Stoinis (28) after his opening partner Devdutt Padikkal fell for a duck and then stitched a century stand with West Indian Pooran, who smashed eight maximums and five boundaries.
Spinner Piyush Chawla (3/29) and Sri Lankan pacer Nuwan Soara (3/28) emerged as Mumbai Indians’ most successful bowlers, taking three wickets each.
