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

Mumbai Indians continued their meteoric rise in IPL 2025 after getting the better of the Lucknow Super Giants in Mumbai during Match 45 of the tournament.

MI were sent in to bat and Ryan Rickelton (58 off 32) obliged. Will Jacks got a start, but Rickelton's good work was continued by Suryakumar Yadav (54 off 28). Mayank Yadav (2/40) took important wickets of an aggressive Rohit Sharma and Yadav, but MI still managed a strong finish. Corbin Bosch (20 off 10) and Naman Dhir (25* off 11) played important cameos to set LSG a record chase.

LSG's batters started the chase with promise, but once Jasprit Bumrah (4/22) drew first blood, MI kept clawing their way back in. The big decisive blow of the chase came when Jacks (2/18) got both Nicholas Pooran and Rishabh Pant in the same over. Trent Boult (3/20) dismissed Mitchell Marsh and Ayush Badoni, both of whom had gotten starts. Bumrah returned to take three wickets in an over, and the result was a formality.

17 – Suryakumar Yadav became the 17th player to score 4,000 runs in the IPL.
