IPL 2025: Openers And Bowlers Give LSG First Home Win After Defeating MI By 12 Runs (ld)
BRSABV Ekana Cricket Stadium: Half-centuries from Aiden Markram and Mitchell Marsh along with Digvesh Rathi, Shardul Thakur and Avesh Khan holding their nerve while taking a wicket each helped Lucknow Super Giants register their first home win of IPL 2025 after edging Mumbai Indians by 12 runs at the BRSABV Ekana Cricket Stadium on Friday.
On a black soil pitch, Marsh capitalised on pace-on deliveries to hit 60 off 31 balls, his third fifty of the competition. After his fall, Markram stepped up to smash 53 off 38 balls, while Miller brought out the big hits in a 14-ball 27 and ensure LSG posted a 200-plus total for the second time.
For MI, who conceded 69 runs in power-play, Hardik Pandya led the way with the ball by picking up 5-36, his first five-for in T20 cricket. The MI skipper used the conditions very well by relying more on his slower balls to get his scalps and become the first-ever IPL captain to take a fifer.
