IPL 2025: MI vs LSG, Match 45: Stats Review of player records and achieved milestones

In Match 45 of the IPL 2025, the Mumbai Indians defeated the Lucknow Super Giants in Mumbai, continuing their incredible ascent.

Ryan Rickelton obliged when MI was asked to bat (58 off 32). Will Jacks started, but Suryakumar Yadav completed Rickelton’s solid effort (54 off 28). Despite Mayank Yadav’s (2/40) crucial wickets of an aggressive Rohit Sharma and Yadav, MI managed to finish strongly. To set LSG on a course to pursue records, Corbin Bosch (20 off 10) and Naman Dhir (25* off 11) made significant cameos.

After Jasprit Bumrah (4/22) drew first blood, MI continued to claw their way back in, although LSG’s batsmen had a promising start to the chase. The chase’s major turning point was when Jacks (2/18) dismissed Rishabh Pant and Nicholas Pooran in the same over. Both Ayush Badoni and Mitchell Marsh had received starts before being removed by Trent Boult (3/20). Once again, Bumrah took three wickets in an over, and the outcome was a formality.
