The batting unit finally clicking and a rather dramatic entry into the IPL play-offs will make Mumbai Indians a more confident side when they meet the plucky Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator on Wednesday. Mumbai Indians have come a long way from their woeful performance last year, when they came up with one of their worst showings in IPL, finishing last.
Having come this far in IPL 2023 after Gujarat Titans did them a good turn by defeating Royal Challengers Bangalore and pitch-forking the five-time champions into the Eliminator against Lucknow Super Giants, the Rohit Sharma-led side would like to make the most of the proverbial 'life' to go the distance and win their sixth title. Lucknow Super Giants, on the other hand, would know all too well that they were eliminated at the same stage last year by RCB after being one of the most dominating sides.
