The chants of “jitega bhai, jitega, Mumbai Indians jitega” from the DJ and spectators after the penultimate over of the match did not eventuate in victory for Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Brabourne Stadium on Saturday evening. MI ended up losing a thrilling encounter to Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by 18 runs. The game was all about LSG skipper KL Rahul, whose dominating, unbeaten 103 off just 60 balls sent the Mumbai outfit on the back foot. MI tried hard while chasing LSG’s 199-4, but after six games in IPL-15, the five-time champions are yet to open their win account.
Bumrah hopeful
MI’s main pacer Jasprit Bumrah (0-24) stated at the post-match virtual press conference: “It’s disappointing. Nobody wants to lose and we are not different. We accept it.” However, he added: “Life is not over, the sun is going to rise again tomorrow. This is a game of cricket, right? Somebody has to win, somebody has to lose.
