The Mumbai Indians have staged a remarkable comeback in this year's IPL and are the team to watch out for. They have won four games in a row and are hot favorites to win another game against an on-and-off performer, Lucknow Super Giants. The Mumbai team boasts several international players, such as Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, and Suryakumar Yadav.
Lucknow made a good start to their campaign in IPL 2025. But now they are dropping games even though they are on the same number of points as the Mumbai Indians. They lost their last encounter against Delhi Capitals by a significant margin of eight wickets. They are currently ranked below Mumbai due to a poor net run rate.

There do not appear to be any injury updates from any of the teams.
We are expecting batting-friendly conditions at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The ball will come on nicely, and the pitch is likely to hold for the entire game. There are no chances of rain during the game, and the temperature during the contest will be close to 29 degrees.
The top contender for the position of wicketkeeper is Nicholas Pooran from Lucknow Super Giants. He has a whopping 845 points to his credit, which is possible mainly due to his batting capabilities.
The top batters for this contest are Mitchell Marsh (678 points), Suryakumar Yadav (757 points), Tilak Verma (493 points), and Rohit Sharma (458 points).
The top all-rounders for the Dream11 team for this contest are Aiden Markram (828 points), Hardik Pandya (624 points), Mitchell Santner (333 points), and Will Jacks (375 points)
Shardul Thakur leads the bowling charts for this contest with 441 points, followed by Trent Boult (419 points), Ravi Bishnoi (344 points), and Jasprit Bumrah (230 points).
We suggest that Aiden Markram be the captainship alternative for his all-around capabilities. He has 828 fantasy points.
Our vice-captain choice for this contest is Suryakumar Yadav for two reasons. First, he has experience leading the side, and second, he has scored 757 points in his batting efforts.
Mumbai Indians have won their last four games in a row and have momentum on their side. The Lucknow Super Giants have had more ups and downs during their campaign thus far. They lost their last game in the league. Mumbai Indians are playing at home. So, the Mumbai team will start as favorites to win this contest. Having a Dream11 side that has more MI players may be the way to go.
Aiden Markram leads the fantasy points tally with 646 points, followed by Nicholas Pooran with 617 points and Suryakumar Yadav with 551 points.
The LSG batter Nichola Pooran leads the runs tally with 377 runs from his last nine games, followed by Suryakumar Yadav with 373 runs and Mitchell Marsh with 344 runs.
Mumbai skipper Hardik Pandya leads the bowling charge with 12 wickets from his last eight innings. Shardul Thakoor also has 12 wickets, and Trent Boult is third with ten wickets.
Nicholas Pooran has hit 31 sixes thus far, followed by Suryakumar Yadav with 19 sixes, and Mitchell Marsh has struck 18 sixes.
Nicholas Pooran has the best strike rate of all with 204.89, followed by Avesh Khan with 200.00 and Abdul Samad with 194.83.
The Mumbai all-rounder Naman Dhir has a terrific economy rate of 4.00. He is followed by Will Jacks with 6.67 and Jasprit Bumrah with 7.90.
