CNN Central News & Network-ITDC India Epress / ITDC News Bhopal: The Mumbai Indians (MI) are scheduled to play against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on May 17, 2024, in Match 67 of IPL 2024 at the Wankhede Stadium at 7:30 pm. This match will be the fourteenth and final one of the season for both teams.
The hosts, who were confirmed to be eliminated just more than a week back courtesy of a belligerent 10-wicket mauling of the visitors, Lucknow Super Giants, will be playing for pride, and would want to end their season on a high after sitting in the bottom-most position on the points table.
Meanwhile, LSG, who lost the plot just when they were sailing towards the playoffs, with three back-to-back losses, have an outside chance mathematically speaking, but it seems almost improbable in reality.
Both teams have lost four in their last five and would want to end their respective seasons on a sweet note.

Pitch Report
The six matches that have been played at the Wankhede have produced quite varied results, with three each going in favour of teams batting first and second, respectively. Light showers are forecasted to disrupt the game, and a cross-breeze is also foreboded to transpire during the match, which promises to be a run-fest.

Probable Best Players of the Match
Probable Best Batter: Rohit Sharma
With the T20 World Cup 2024 fast approaching and there being only one warm-up game which Team India will play ahead of the marquee event, the match against LSG will be one of the last full-fledged match situations which’ll be encountered by the ex-MI skipper and the captain of the Indian Cricket Team. It seems more than likely for Rohit to go big and make it count.
Probable Best Bowler: Jasprit Bumrah
With 20 wickets in 13 matches, the Indian pace-bowling spearhead has once again had a remarkable tournament, not only in terms of wicket-taking but stifling the flow of runs as well. Bumrah has gone at a scanty 6.48 runs/over the entire tournament and would be geared to add a few more to his tally to enhance his confidence ahead of the showpiece event in June.
