IPL 2025: LSG vs MI Match Prediction, Who Will Win Today IPL Match 16?

In the six LSG vs MI clashes of the Indian Premier League, the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) have enjoyed a lead of 5-1 in the head-to-head over the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). The MI vs LSG encounter between the two sides will take place on April 03, 2025, at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.

In the 2025 edition of the competition, the Mumbai Indians struggled with opening stands in the first six overs of the innings. Their former captain, Rohit Sharma, did not score enough runs with the bat in the first three fixtures of the event.

The five-time champions have smashed just 146 runs in three innings at an average of 24.33 and a strike rate of 135.19, which is the third-lowest among all ten franchises. They have lost six wickets in the period, besides smashing 17 boundaries and seven over boundaries for the best score of 55 runs in the duration.

Ryan Rickelton carried them over the line with a fine unbeaten half-century in the chase. But the franchise's main concern going into the LSG vs. MI fixture will be Rohit and Will Jacks.

It was a rare occasion when the Lucknow Super Giants struggled in the powerplay overs during the previous contest against the Punjab Kings. Mitchell Marsh, who celebrated two fine knocks in the games against Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad, fell for a golden duck. Aiden Markram also missed out after a good start.

The Super Giants have been irregular in the powerplay with a strike rate of 157.41, smashing 170 runs in three innings, shouldering on 17 boundaries and 11 over boundaries at the best score of 77 runs that they got in the very first fixture.

Nicholas Pooran, coming at number three, has generated aggression in most games after they lose their first wicket cheaply. But they aim for a better opening stand in the LSG vs MI game.
