Looking at the past statistics of both the teams, it is known that LSG has gained an edge against MI. But this season, LSG’s batting and bowling are not able to show the form of pressure and strength as usual.
If the team has to score big in the match, then it is very important for captain Rishabh Pant to get into his rhythm. Nicholas Pooran has been an army of one for the team so far and he expects help from other batsmen of the team as well. Shardul Thakur and Avesh Khan will be looking for their team’s second win this season and will be looking to take as many wickets as possible.
MI will have to prepare their top order to perform well to score big against LSG. If MI bowlers decide to dismantle LSG’s top order as quickly as possible to increase their chances of winning the match, then overall MI can gain a slight edge in this close match.

Therefore, the toss is going to play an important role in today’s match as the team chasing the target will have more advantage. By the way, LSG can win by taking advantage of its home ground.
