Mumbai’s dominant batting display was matched by a clinical bowling performance. Lucknow Super Giants, chasing 216, never found their footing and were bundled out for 161. Fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah spearheaded a disciplined bowling effort that dismantled LSG’s batting lineup.
Beyond personal milestones, the win significantly bolstered Mumbai Indians’ position in the points table as they continue their push for playoff qualification. The comprehensive nature of the victory also sent a strong message to the rest of the competition about their balanced strength in both departments.
