MI vs LSG Toss Factor

The toss will not play a massive role in the game's fate. The season's stats show that the results have been shared between the chasing and the defending team. However, the Wankhede is traditionally an excellent chasing venue, and the skipper winning the toss might look to field first. 

Scenario: If Mumbai Indians win the toss

• Mumbai Indians prefer to chase and will try to do the same on winning the toss in this game. Batters like Ishan Kishan, Suryaumar Yadav, and Hardik Pandya will be good choices for the C or VC in the chase. 
• Jaspirt Bumrah has been in brilliant form with the ball. Burmah should be the obvious choice if you want to make a bowler your C or VC. Besides the Indian pacer, Piyush Chawla could also be a good option. 

Scenario: If Lucknow Super Giants win the toss

• The Super Giants have defended well in the tournament. Despite the stats and history, LSG might thus look to bat first. Irrespective of the toss decision, KL Rahul, Marcus Stoinis, and Nicholas Pooran will be the most important choices from the LSG batting. 
• Arshad Khan has done a good job with the ball in the last game. He is also a good batter and could be a good option as the C or VC. Along with Arshad, Naveen could be a differential choice.

Tilak Varma (MI)

This young Indian batter has been the most consistent batter for the Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024. Tilak Varma has delivered with the bat in most of the games and will be one of the safer choices as the C or VC. 

Jasprit Bumrah (MI)

The leader of the Indian pace batter has done an excellent job for the Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024. Jasprit Bumrah has been economical and has also picked up wickets frequently. Thus he will be a good option as the C or VC.

KL Rahul (LSG)

The Lucknow skipper is the highest run-scorer for the team. KL Rahul has not converted his starts in the last few matches and is due for a big one. Thus Rahul could be a good choice as the C or VC.

Marcus Stoinis (LSG)

After a quite start to the tournament, the Australian all-rounder has picked up good form in the last few matches. Stoinis has played some great knocks under pressure and could be a rewarding C or VC choice for the match. 

MI vs LSG High Risk, High Rewards

Suryakumar Yadav (MI)

It has been a hot and cold season for the world's number one T20 batter. But Suryakumar Yadav has looked good in a couple of matches and could be a game-changing choice for the fantasy contests of the match. 

Nicholas Pooran (LSG)

The West Indian keeper batter was in a fine touch in the last game. Nicholas Pooran will look to carry the form ahead and score big in this game. Pooran could be a differential choice as the C or VC of the match.

MI vs LSG Stay Aways

Naman Dhir (MI)

The MI management has shown a lot of faith in on this player without much returns. In the current form, Naman Dhir does not look like a great choice as the C or VC for this game. 

Deepak Hooda (LSG)

The Indian middle-order batter has got a few starts and played a couple of good knocks in IPL 2024. But Deepak Hooda has not got enough opportunities to maintain his form and momentum. Given the current form of Hooda, he could be ignored as a C or VC for the match.
