Here are the top 3 batters to watch out for in LSG vs MI Clash
3- Mitchell Marsh
Australian opener Mitchell Marsh began the season with two successive fifties before falling for a golden duck against Punjab. Marsh has been a great addition to LSG and the move to open the batting has paid rich dividends. Marsh scored fifties against Delhi and Hyderabad to show his attacking abilities. Considering that Mumbai’s bowling is still not yet up to its strength, Marsh could prove to be the key batter for the home side.
2- Suryakumar Yadav

India’s T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav has been one of the few bright sparks for MI this season. With Rohit Sharma’s repeated failures and the inconsistent form shown by other batters the onus will be on SKY to deliver the goods with the bat. Yadav doesn’t have a great record against LSG but the way he is batting currently, one cannot rule out Yadav coming up with a huge knock. This season, Yadav has already scored 104 runs from three games with an average of 52 and strike rate of 165.
1- Nicholas Pooran

The best batter of IPL 2025 and one of the most dangerous T20 batters in the world is none other than Nicholas Pooran. The left-handed batter has been a handful for the opposing bowlers already this year. Pooran has played nine games against MI and scored 205 runs with one fifty and has a strike rate of 175 against the Men in Blue and Gold. Pooran has played three games this year and scored 189 runs with two fifties and has an average of 63 and is striking the ball at 219.77. On current form, Nicholas Pooran is the most dangerous batter in the IPL and will be a handful for the MI bowlers.
