T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Shan85]

LSG vs MI today's match will be great as if Mumbai Indians can win the match then they can be guaranteed to go to the knockout stage. and LSG also has a good chance in the points table with MI at the third position and LSG at the fourth position. Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants will get only one more match, both teams have one match left. So they have a chance to advance to the knockout stage.

The match between MI and LSG today looks like it will be exciting. Since a victory could determine which club advances to the postseason both teams are motivated to succeed. It will be intriguing to see how Kunal Pandya performs as captain in the IPL especially if he leads LSG to the playoffs. MI overall performance has improved despite Rohit Sharma batting difficulties. A hotly contested game is probably in store when these two well matched teams face off. Its may presumably a high scoring match. Cricket unpredictability makes it impossible to guarantee Mumbai Indians a playoff spot regardless of today's match outcome. If they win they'll move to the 2nd position while LSG win would push Mumbai Indians to fourth. Gujarat Titans are the only team confirmed for the playoffs leaving the second spot up for grabs. The excitement lies in the uncertainty of which team will secure that coveted spot.

Gujarat Titans are the only team confirmed for the playoffs leaving the second spot up for grabs. The excitement lies in the uncertainty of which team will secure that coveted spot.

My random prediction is that MI will lose against LSG today even though they look like they can chase down any score while CSK will win the next match and claim the second spot later on.

The remaining two spots will be taken by LSG and RCB. MI will probably get screwed thanks to RCB coming from behind.

The match between Lucknow and MI has been a real nail-biter so far. Lucknow has managed to put up an incredible total of 177 after down at 123/3 in just 17 overs. And can we talk about Marcus Stoinis' performance? Absolutely, today his batting is nothing short of sensational and this knock will go down in IPL history as one of the best.

MI bowlers did miss their length several times towards the end. It's definitely a challenging total to chase and from MI side need someone to step up and deliver an equally special performance if they want to win this game.

@onecall123 what an brilliant finish to the Lucknow innings because at one stage it felt like that MI would easily win the match but what an incredible turnaround by Lucknow. Furthermore MI have started their innings solidly and they’re now 47 runs at the end of 5 overs and they haven’t lost a single wicket too thus it suddenly feels that MI will now win easily.

The match start wasn't good for Lucknow Super Giants as they had few early wickets. From there krunal played in the right way and stood wicket and walked to the pavilion as retired hurt. Stoinis continued his game and took the LSG to a solid score of 177 runs by the end of 20 overs. It looked little fighting match for Mumbai Indians, but looking at the way of scoring Mumbai Indians will easily reach the target. Already Ishan Kishan have crossed 50 runs and Rohit Sharma played better than other matches scoring 37 runs. Already 100 runs reached in the 11^th over seems to be an easy winning for Mumbai Indians.

I am no fan of Lucknow but jeez this is some quality death bowling, not an easy job when it's a pressure matchup against good batting lineup.

2 big guys are batting for Mumbai and they are international players so there might be some chance for them but Lucknow's bowlers deserve some credits here.

Edit

Just wow!! Well done Mohsin, an excellent exhibition of death bowling tonight.

Mumbai Indians missed out on an easy win. After scoring 19 runs in the 19th over, Mumbai Indians failed to score just 11 runs in the 20th over. In other words, Mumbai Indians needed 11 runs to win in the last over. 

Mohsin Khan bowled brilliantly in the last over. The yorker manages to bowl three balls out of six deliveries. Because of his great bowling in the last over, LSG is still dreaming of the playoffs. If they can win the last match, LSG will definitely qualify for the playoffs. If for some reason LSG can't win the last match, they still have a chance to make it to the playoffs. 

Congratulations to LSG for pulling off a great win in an important match.

[Haunebu]

Just wow!! Well done Mohsin, an excellent exhibition of death bowling tonight.

I was stunned to see him give away only 5 freaking runs against players like David and Green in the final over. Wow! It looked like Tim would help his team cross the line towards the end, but he messed up by rotating the strike.

Bishnoi, Khan and Stoinis are the ones who won this for Lucknow. MI are in trouble now because teams like RCB etc could steal their spot in the playoffs.

What a bowling from Moshin Khan. At the final over with 10 runs required from 6 balls, and unable to reach the target by players like Cameroon Green and Tim David is really great thing from the bowler. The best part, Mumbai Indians scored 19 runs in the previous over, which means they're in good position to score runs. Anyhow the win is important for LSG at the moment and keeps Mumbai Indians in trouble till the final match gets over.

It was a good prediction, i was expecting Mumbai to chase down the score but after Suryakumar Yadav lost his wicket the hopes were lost but then they turned around and they only needed 11 runs to win in the final over but Mohsin Khan bowled an incredible final over restricting them without any loose balls and gave just 5 runs to sneak the victory away from Mumbai.

Yeah agree, they should have win this match but have to acknowledge the bowlers of lucknow.

I only watched the last 6 overs and I was under the impression that Mumbai will just walk through over them as they were in a comfortable position.

~snip~

Bishnoi, Khan and Stoinis are the ones who won this for Lucknow. MI are in trouble now because teams like RCB etc could steal their spot in the playoffs.

Playoff calculation just got spicy for top teams now let's wait for SRH, Punjab or other lower rank teams to win their remaining matches.

Won't mind if it comes down to run rate.

[ZAINmalik75]

No prediction can be made with certainty in cricket, anything unexpected can happen on a 22 yard pitch in cricket.

It's totally unpredictable match because both team delivered more than his best, Lucknow top order were full off colour but middle order delivered some special they scored around 54 runs in last 3 overs and I think that the game changing moments because through these power hitting they got momentum and scored 177. While the Mumbai indian start were really significant compared to opponent start but later the way Thier middle order exposed were really disappointed because their star player Green and David not even chased 10 runs in last over. But credit of this victory goes to mohsin Khan for Thier sunsational last over bowling which were the main reason of Thier victory.

Lucknow Super Giants got off to a rough start but later scored massive runs. But Mumbai Indians could not make up for Iran and lost the points.  Then came close with a massive four sixes at Mumbai Indians but lost by a narrow margin. This is a huge loss for Mumbai Indians as they are at a huge disadvantage for this match if the points are close to the table position.
Usually Mumbai Indians have done well in the last matches but coming into this match they lost a little bit. But in the end they have to perform better to survive.

Stonis' amazing hitting skills bring back LSG in this crucial match, and they have good target of 178, but MI batting line-up is very strong and start from Ishan Kishen and Rohit Sharma give them control in this game which will give them second spot into league table with most chances no problem for staying here.

Last three overs of LSG were really game changer for them because before these overs mostly feeling they will be able to have target around 140 to 145, but 54 runs from 18 balls completely change match momentum but bad for them now MI batting is also on fire and now allowing bowlers to have any easy time as they are hitting all around the ground and scoring freely for the win.

Gujarat Titans are the only team confirmed for the playoffs leaving the second spot up for grabs. The excitement lies in the uncertainty of which team will secure that coveted spot.

My random prediction is that MI will lose against LSG today even though they look like they can chase down any score while CSK will win the next match and claim the second spot later on.

The remaining two spots will be taken by LSG and RCB. MI will probably get screwed thanks to RCB coming from behind.

I will 100% blame the poor batting performance behind Mumbai Indians' defeat in today's match. In particular, Mumbai Indians scored only 3 runs in the 12th over, only 1 run in the 13th over, only 6 runs in the 16th over, only 9 runs in the 18th over despite getting several extra runs including a no ball, only 5 runs in the 20th over Collected which was enough for Mumbai Indians to lose the match. Here Cameron Green comes towards the end and scores only 4 runs from six balls and he does not score any runs from multiple balls. I will only blame him for the defeat of Mumbai Indians.

Agreed, the team that were able to reach 100 runs in the 11^th over unable to score another 77 runs in 56 balls is really poor batting performance. Simple, the team is much depending on few players. I haven't gone into the statistics, but in most of the Matches in which Suryakumar Yadav played well is a win for Mumbai Indians. Today even with the best batsmen on the crease and unable to win scoring 11 runs in the last over is a big disappointment for the Mumbai Indians team supporters.

Mumbai failed to do the most basic thing in the last match. They should have made sure that Tim David gets the strike for a maximum number of deliveries. But the opposite happened. In the last over, he got to face just 1 out of the 6 balls. David was in fine form, and in the 19th over (which was bowled by Naveen-ul-Haq) he managed to score 19 runs. If he faced Mohsin Khan during the last over instead of Cameroon Green, then Mumbai would have won the match easily. But a lot of things went wrong for Mumbai in the last 4 overs, beginning with the decision to send Vishnu Vinod ahead of Green and Jordan.

[pakhitheboss]

The 178-run target looked like a target of 200-plus runs for MI. The last two overs by LSG and the failure of SKY, according to me, were the reasons why MI lost to LSG. The last over by Mohsin Khan was outstanding. Tim David and Cameron Green were a big disappointment whereas Marcus Stoinis and Pandya were the reasons why LSG was able to get 178 runs on a tough pitch for batting.
