The end, when it came, was swift, decisive, and comical. Having given themselves an even chance of hunting down Mumbai Indians’s excellent 182-8, Lucknow Super Giants embarked on a spectacular trail of self-destruction at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, finding novel ways of courting disaster to concede the Eliminator of the IPL by a massive 81 runs.
Mumbai, the five-time champions, are masters at taking a mile when given an inch. Lucknow gave them the entire mile, slipping from a position of reasonable promise at 68 for two after eight overs to an embarrassing 101 all out with 21 deliveries remaining. The commanding victory ensured that Rohit Sharma’s men will lock horns with Hardik Pandya’s Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 2 in Ahmedabad on Friday.
