Indian Premier League 2022 – Lucknow Super Giants vs Mumbai Indians – 37th Match Prediction
The Mumbai Indians set an unfavourable record by losing the first seven games of an IPL season when they were defeated by the Chennai Super Kings in the final game. In the 37th game of the Indian Premier League 2022, they will face the Lucknow Super Giants and will need some luck and confidence. LSG also comes in with a loss, having failed to cross the finish line against Royal Challengers Bangalore.
The Mumbai Indians have yet to win a game this season, and the team is suffering from a mental block. They failed to defend 17 runs in the final over against CSK, and the team would benefit from a boost of confidence here. The Super Giants had previously defeated Mumbai, and they would look to capitalise on Mumbai’s lack of form and confidence in order to improve their position on the points table.
The 37th match between Lucknow Super Giants vs Mumbai Indians will take place on April 24th, 2022 at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

Lucknow Super Giants vs Mumbai Indians Team Previews
Lucknow Super Giants (Match Odds – 1.86)
KL Rahul’s team arrives here after suffering an 18-run defeat to the Royal Challengers Bangalore in their previous game. They failed to form partnerships in the game, causing them to fall short of the goal. So far, the team has performed admirably, winning four of its seven games. Rahul would be aware of Mumbai Indians’ plight, having previously defeated them. They would aim for a win which will put them in a good place on the points table.
Quinton de Kock and Rahul have been standout performers for the team, and they will be crucial in this game. The middle order has been a little shaky for the team, and they would expect Krunal Pandya, Deepak Hooda, and Ayush Badoni to contribute runs there. The side has good firepower to follow with the bat in Marcus Stoinis, Jason Holder, and Dushmantha Chameera.
Avesh Khan has been a standout performer for the side with the ball, and he and Chameera will look to exploit Mumbai’s weakness at the top. They have experienced hands for the middle overs in Holder and Stoinis. The side would also like to see its spinners Pandya and Ravi Bishnoi work their magic and win the game for the side.
Lucknow Super Giants Squad
KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Manish Pandey, Deepak Hooda, Manan Vohra, Krunal Pandya, Ankit Rajpoot, Krishnappa Gowtham, Ravi Bishnoi, Dushmantha Chameera, Avesh Khan, Shahbaz Nadeem, Evin Lewis, Mohsin Khan, Ayush Badoni, Karan Sharma, Mayank Yadav
Predicted XI: KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Manish Pandey, Marcus Stoinis, Deepak Hooda, Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, Jason Holder, Dushmantha Chameera, Avesh Khan, Ravi Bishnoi
Mumbai Indians (Match Odds – 1.92)
Under pressure, Rohit Sharma’s team has crumbled. Their three-wicket loss to CSK was a textbook example of the team’s inability to handle pressure. Sitting at the bottom of the points table, the team has almost given up hope of progressing to the next round. They shouldn’t look too far ahead, and Sharma’s first priority should be to get the monkey off their back and win their first game of the season.
Rohit Sharma must justify his inclusion in the team, and he and Ishan Kishan must get off to a good start. Dewald Brevis, Tilak Varma, and Suryakumar Yadav have all made runs, but the middle order needs to contribute more. Kieron Pollard and Daniel Sams must perform well in the lower middle order, which has been a source of contention for the team.
The best new-ball pair for the side is Jasprit Bumrah and Daniel Sams, and it was a wise decision to see them bowl together in the last game. Hrithik Shokeen and Riley Meredith also performed admirably in the middle overs, and the team would do well to capitalise on their abilities. Arjun Tendulkar could replace Jaydev Unadkat, who threw away the game against CSK.
Mumbai Indians Squad
Ishan Kishan (wk), Rohit Sharma (c), Anmolpreet Singh, Tilak Varma, Kieron Pollard, Tim David, Daniel Sams, Murugan Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah, Tymal Mills, Basil Thampi, Suryakumar Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat, Fabian Allen, Sanjay Yadav, Riley Meredith, Ramandeep Singh, Mayank Markande, Aryan Juyal, Arjun Tendulkar, Hrithik Shokeen, Rahul Buddhi, Arshad Khan, Dewald Brevis
Predicted XI: Rohit Sharma (c), Ishan Kishan (wk), Dewald Brevis, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Kieron Pollard, Daniel Sams, Hrithik Shokeen, Riley Meredith, Arjun Tendulkar, Jasprit Bumrah

Pitch and Weather Conditions
Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is a small venue with one of India’s best batting surfaces. Batsmen can use their strokes freely, and the short boundaries aid in scoring runs. There isn’t much here for fast bowlers, but spinners who turn the ball have done well.
On April 24, there will be clear skies over Mumbai, and we anticipate a high-scoring wicket. Batsmen would be able to play their strokes freely on the rise. To feel in command of the game, the team batting first should aim for a target score of more than 180 runs.
Lucknow Super Giants vs Mumbai Indians Match Prediction
Mumbai Indians must first win the mental battle before they can win the physical one. The team appears demoralised, and they will need to overcome this adversity if they are to win this game. The Lucknow Super Giants have a good balance in both the batting and bowling departments, and based on Mumbai’s current form, LSG would be considered the early favourites to win this contest.
Lucknow Super Giants is the favourite to beat Mumbai Indians at the odds of 1.86.
- Mumbai Indians have lost all seven games this season, and the team appears to be in bad shape.
- LSG has won four of the tournament’s seven games and previously defeated Mumbai Indians.
- Mumbai’s opener, Rohit Sharma, is having a nightmare, which is leading to the team’s demise.
