Mumbai Indians predicted XI: Will Jacks, Ryan Rickelton (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Naman Dhir, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (c), Robin Minz, Trent Boult, Ashwani Kumar, Allah Ghazanfar, Jasprit Bumrah.
The LSG team also has some downsides; with Wanindu Hasaranga not available, and Matthew Breetzke out, Josh Inglis joining the team is a positive note for the team.
The form of their players remains their major worry, as their bowling lineup has been inconsistent; Mohammed Shami leads their bowlers’ lineup.
Lucknow Super Giants predicted XI: Aiden Markram, Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Ayush Badoni, Nicholas Pooran, Abdul Samad, Mukul Choudhary, M Siddharth, Avesh Khan, Digvesh Rathi, Prince Yadav.
