LSG are fresh off their defeat to Rajasthan Royals at home. The Royals chased the target of 196 with an over to spare. This latest defeat at home came as a shock to LSG purely because of how The Royals dominated the LSG bowlers.
However, the Super Giants now have a quick turnaround and they are playing against a team whom they have dominated in the IPL. LSG have won three out of the four games against MI. KL Raul has scored centuries in two of those games back to back in 2022.

Ravi Bishnoi

Mohsin Khan
Mohsin Khan will slot in at nine. He has been good with his left-arm swing bowling. He was expensive in the last game going for 52 runs. The left-arm pacer has picked up seven wickets in six games.
Yash Thakur
Thakur should be the second Indian seamer in the XI. He has taken a fifer in this IPL. He took the wicket of Jos Buttler in the last game. So far this season he has picked up 10 wickets.
Shamar Joseph
Joseph can replace Matt Henry in the XI and conclude the likely playing XI for LSG. His express pace might pose problems against the top-order batters for MI. He played just one game this season.
