The Mumbai Indians (Mi) lock the horns with the super giants of Lucknow (LSG) in match 16 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Ekana stadium on Friday, April 4. The two teams have problems solving before this mid-table confrontation.
Hherik Pandya and Co. lost their first two games in IPL 2025, but rebounded with a promising victory over the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Wankhede stadium. Currently placed sixth in the ranking with a positive net race rate, they will wish to take a certain momentum as the league scene is progressing.
The MI team for IPL 2025: Suryakumar YadavRohit Sharma, Tilak Varma, Bevon Jacobs, Robin Minz, Ryan Rickelton, Krishnan Shrijith, Hardik Pandya, Naman Dhir, Will Jacks, Raj Angad Bawa, Vignesh Puthur, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Karn Sharma, Mitchell Santner, Jasprit Bumrah, Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Ashwani Kumar, Reece Topley, Satyanarayana Raju, Arjun TendulkarCorbin Bosch.
On this note, here is the predicted game of Mi, apart from an impact player, for match 16 of IPL 2025.
Ouvers: Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton (WK)
Rohit Sharma has not been in great shape so far, as has been the case over the years in IPL. The opener will be desperate for a score in Lucknow.
Meanwhile, Ryan Rickelton, who has remained undefeated in the easy pursuit of Mi on Kkr, will want to build a certain coherence.
Middle Order: Will Jacks, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hhelik Pandya (C), Naman Dir, Mitchell Santner
Mi is likely to stick to the same combination they played in the previous game. Will Jacks is expected to beat at No. 3, followed by Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma in the shot unit.
Captain Hardik Pandya will be crucial with the battle and the ball, while Naman Dir and Mitchell Santner will be added in the depth of striker and the finishing capacity. The rotation of the left arm of Santner may not be as precious against the band from left to the left of LSG, but he is a delighted operator who could obtain a purchase in the counter at the Ekana stadium.
Lower order: Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Ashwani Kumar
Ashwani Kumar made his IPL debut against KKR and immediately made an impression, guaranteeing the match of the match player. The corridor of the left arm must be associated by the more experienced duo of Trent Boult and Deepak Chahar.
Impact player – Vignesh Puthur
Mi is likely to bring a bowling impact player, although they can leave this option open if they are first. Vignesh Puthur did not have his best outing against KKR, but he has shown enough promise to justify being supported through the middle of the middle.
