LSG’s win helped them improve their NRR to +0.048, while MI’s dropped slightly to +0.108.
Sent in to bat first, LSG posted a commanding 203/8, thanks to blazing half-centuries from openers Mitchell Marsh (60 off 31) and Aiden Markram (53 off 38). Despite a brilliant 5-wicket haul by MI skipper Hardik Pandya (5/36), his first in T20s, LSG managed to push past the 200-mark.
In response, MI fell short, ending at 191/5. Suryakumar Yadav waged a lone battle with a fighting 67 off 43 balls, but lacked support at the other end. LSG bowlers shared the spoils, with Shardul Thakur, Avesh Khan, Digvesh Rathi, and Akash Deep taking a wicket each.
Rohit Sharma missed the match due to a knee injury sustained in practice.
