Match preview & overview
Lucknow Super Giants beat Mumbai Indians by 4 wickets at the BRSABV Ekana Cricket Stadium on 30 April 2024, chasing down a target of 145 to move further ahead in a head-to-head series they now lead 6–2. MP Stoinis was named Player of the Match after steadying the chase during a middle-overs wobble. Mumbai had already been set back by a dismal powerplay, losing 4 wickets for 28 runs in the first 6 overs. They recovered, but 144/7 was always likely to be under par at Ekana. LSG's openers came out attacking and made the target look straightforward before three middle-overs wickets briefly tightened the finish.
The contest never felt truly in doubt once LSG reached the halfway point of their chase in a strong position. Their powerplay score of 52/1 gave them a buffer that absorbed the cluster of wickets in overs 7–15. At the death, Lucknow needed just 29 runs with 4 wickets remaining, and they got there comfortably enough. For Mumbai, a third defeat in five 2024 games left them with serious questions about their top-order frailty.
