IPL 2022: Lucknow Super Giants win by 18 runs, Mumbai Indians suffer sixth successive defeat
India TV NewsLucknow Super Giants skipper KL Rahul made batting look like a walk in the park with a 56-ball century in his 100th IPL game to put five-time champions Mumbai Indians all but out of the league with an 18-run win on Saturday. Rahul's unbeaten 60-ball 103, his third three-figure mark across all editions of IPL, propelled Lucknow to a commanding score of 199 for four and then his bowlers joined the party to restrict MI to 181 for nine in 20 overs. MI's fielding was perhaps their worst in the past four to five seasons and it didn't help matters that Rahul was in imperious form to make full use of it. Between overs 13 to 16, Rahul and company added 60 runs and it didn't help their cause that MI have had one of the worst days in the outfield, not being able to cut the boundaries even after getting hold of the ball.
