LSG vs MI IPL 2025 Match No 16 LIVE: Rishabh Pant’s Lucknow Super Giants will face off against Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians, hoping to post their first win at home this season at the Ekana Stadium on Friday.
Two team under pressure – Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians – will face off in match No. 16 of the IPL 2025 at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow on Friday. Both sides are struggling in the middle of the table with just 1 wins out of 3 matches so far.
The pressure is definitely building on LSG skipper Rishabh Pant, who was bought for a record amount of Rs 27 crore by owner Sanjiv Goenka in the IPL 2025 mega auction last year. Pant has only managed to scored 17 runs in 3 matches so far this season.
Mumbai Indians opener and Team India Test and ODI skipper Rohit Sharma is also feeling the heat after a lacklustre start to IPL 2025. Rohit has failed to fire for MI at the top of the order as well and will be aiming for a big score to kick off his campaign.
Pant’s LSG will be boosted by the return of Team India pacer Akash Deep into their ranks. Akash was bought for Rs 10 crore but has not played in any IPL 2025 match due to back injury suffered during the Border Gavaskar Trophy Test series earlier this year. He will be expected to replace Avesh Khan, who has proven to be very expensive with the ball so far this year.
Hardik Pandya’s MI, on the other hand, can also bring back Afghanistan mystery spinner Mujeeb ur Rahman into the playing 12 if the track at Ekana Stadium assists spin bowlers. Mujeeb played in only one game in IPL 2025 – against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad – where he conceded 28 runs in 2 overs. If Mujeeb does come in, he is expected to replace England all-rounder Will Jacks.
