The Mumbai Indians (MI) management is facing considerable backlash from fans after appointing Hardik Pandya as the team captain for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. This decision has sparked numerous rumours and speculations circulating on the internet. Many users and fans are spreading misinformation regarding MI’s captaincy decision.

In addition, a user recently took to social media to share a fabricated quote falsely attributed to former Indian cricketer Parthi??v Patel.

Parthiv Patel calls out user for sharing a fake quote under his name

Following MI’s four-wicket loss against Lucknow Super Giants on Tuesday, a user shared misattributed quote on X (formerly Twitter) allegedly said by Parthiv during the commentary of MI’s game. The user claimed that Parthiv remarked that MI is a formidable team but is struggling in the tournament due to the quick decision to change the team’s captaincy.

“Mumbai Indians was favourite with such a strong team and still they are out of the tournament. This is what happens when you try to change things quickly,” the user wrote on X, giving Parthiv c??redit for it and attached photos of Hardik and Parthiv on it.

Reacting to it, the 39-year-old curbed this fake news and stated that he was not ??even involved in covering the match betwee?n LSG and MI.

“Fake quote. I haven’t even covered this game. The last one I did was on Sunday. And back on next week. So please stop spreading false information to get views and clicks,” ?Parthi?v wrote on X. Notably, the user deleted his tweet after being called out by Parthiv.

MI captain reacts to MI’s loss against LSG

In the post-match presentation, MI skipper Hardik Pandya blamed the team’s batting order failure for suffering a loss. However, he lauded Nehal Wadhera for his innings of 46 off 41.

“I think losing early wickets is tough to recover from and that’s what we couldn’t do it today. You still have to see the ball and hit. We just missed those balls and got out, that has been the kind of season we have had so far,” said Pandya.

“I have always believed that you will be up and you’ll be up, just that you got to give it your all. A lot of things to learn from this game. It has been fantastic. I think he (Wadhera) did last year as well, he couldn’t get opportunities earlier but he will play a lot of IPL and India eventually,” the 30-year-old added.

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) batter Ayush Badoni found himself embroiled in controversy during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash against Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Bharat?? Ratna Shri Atal Vihari Bajpyee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on? Tuesday (April 30).

Ayush Badoni’s dismissal drama

In the critical 19th over of the match, Badoni executed a cut shot towards the deep cover region off a short and wide delivery from Hardik Pandya. With swift footwork, the batters completed the first run and eyed the possibility of a second. A precise throw from substitute fielder Naman Dhir aimed at the striker’s end heightened the tension. Wicket-keeper Ishan Kishan, though initially fumbling, successfully dislodged the bails. Badoni, in a desperate attempt, dived to cross the crease, but? his bat momentarily lifted into the air.

Umpire’s final decision

Upon reviewing the replays, the third umpire ruled Badoni out, deeming his bat to be airborne when the LED stumps were lit up. The batter, visibly stunned by the umpire’s decision, left the field disheartened. However, the replays revealed a nuanced scenario: while the entirety of Badoniโ€™s bat extended over the line, including a portion of the handle, neither his bat nor body made contact with the ground beyond the crease when Ishan Kishan eventually dislodged the bails on?? the?? second attempt.

MCC Law: Understanding the rule

As per MCC Law 30.1.1, if neither the batter’s bat nor body is grounded beyond the crease when the bails are dislodged, they are deemed out, as was the case with Badoni.

“A batter shall be considered to be out of his/her ground unless some part of his/her person bat is grounded behind the popping crease of that end,” the law reads.

LSG triumph despite controversy

Fortunately for LSG, the contentious dismissal didn’t prove costly as they clinched the match by four wickets, with four balls to spare, chasing down the target of 145. The main architect of LSG’s victory was the experienced Australian all-rounder, Marcus Stoinis, whose brilliant innings of 62 runs off 45 balls, featuring seven boundaries and two maximums, turned the tide in their favor in the low-scoring encounter?. With this triumph over MI, LSG rose to third place ?in the standings, accumulating 12 points from 10 matches, with six victories to their credit.

LSG seals the victory

In the context of the game, MI posted a below-par total of 144 for 7 in 20 overs. LSG’s bowlers, led by the skilled Mohsin Khan, performed resiliently, ensuring that MI’s scoring was kept in check.

Chasing the target, LSG displayed determination and class in their batting effort, ultimately reaching 145/6 in 19.2 overs to secure a hard-fought victory by four wickets. Marcus Stoinis played a pivotal ??role in the run chase, delivering a crucial inning??s of 62 runs.

Despite Hardik Pandya’s commendable bowling performance for MI, claiming two wickets for 26 runs, LSG’s batters proved too strong, guiding their team to a memorable win.

In the 48th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) secured a notable victory over Mumbai Indians (MI), prevailing by 4 wickets. Opting to bowl first, LSG effectively contained MI to a modest total of 144 for 7. In reply, LSG chased down the target within 19.2 overs, largely fueled by Marcus Stoinis’ steady innings of 62 runs off 45 balls.

MI’s defeat stemmed from their below-par batting display. Nehal Wadhera emerged as the highest scorer with his contribution of 46 runs off 41 deliveries, followed by Tim David’s brisk 35 off 18 balls. However, beyond these performances, MI struggled to find stability in their batting lineup. Even their captain, Hardik Pandya, departed on the very first ball he faced.

Naveen-ul-Haq gets rid of Hardik Pandya on the first ball

MI batter Tilak Varma was run out on the opening delivery of Naveen-ul-Haq’s over. With his team struggling at 27 for 3, Pandya stepped onto the crease, aiming to stabilize the innings. However, Pandya went back to the dugout without troubling the scorers. Naveen delivered a good length ball at off-stump to Pandya. The MI skipper attempted to play a straight drive but mistimed his shot, resulting in an edge that flew straight into the hands of LSG wicket-keeper KL Rahul.

Pandya’s concerning form

In the ongoing IPL season, Pandya’s performance has been underwhelming, both with the bat and the ball. Over his last 10 matches, he has only managed to secure 6 wickets while conceding 253 runs. With the bat, he has accumulated 197 runs at a strike rate of 150.38. This dip in form is not only worrying for MI but also raises concerns for India, as the 30-year-old all-rounder holds the position of Vice-captain in the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup 2024. If Pandya fails to make a swift turnaround, it could pose challenges for both MI?? and the Indian team.

In what was meant to be a celebratory game for Mumbai Indians’ (MI) opening batter Rohit Sharma on his 37th birthday, t?urned into a brief and disappointing outing as he was dismissed for just 4 r?uns at the Ekana Cricket Stadium.

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) won ??the toss and elected to bowl, setting the stage for a chall??enging match for MI.

Mohsin Khan sends Rohit Sharma back into the dugout

The game was barely underway when LSG pacer Mohsin Khanย managed to strike an early blow for his team. In just the second over, Khan delivered a full-length ball which Rohit, attempting to hit over the cover, chipped straight to Marcus Stoinis. The former MI skipper could only contribute a single boundary before making his way back to the pavilion, a sight that left his wife, Ritika Sajdeh, visibly dejected in the stands.

Nehal Wadhera steers MI to a respectable total

Mumbai Indians’ struggles at the top of the order have been a recurring theme this season, and Tuesday’s match was no exception. Despite the early loss of Rohit, MI managed to put up a total of 144/7, thanks largely to a resilient knock of 46 off 41 balls by Nehal Wadhera, which included 4 fours and 2 sixes.

Mohsin, who took Rohit’s crucial wicket, finished with impressive figures of 2/36, further tightening LSG’s grip on the game. The performance of the LSG bowlers was commendable as they consistently pegged back MI’s batting lineup, preventing them from building any significant momentum.

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) opening batter Quinton de Kock missed the IPL 2024 match against Mumbai Indians (MI) on Tuesday, April 30.

The LSG management confirmed before the toss that Ashton Turner would replace De Kock in the playin??g XI at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium.

Reason for Quinton De Kock’s absence

De Kock was forced to sit out due to niggle. Meanwhile, Lucknow’s unanticipated move saw the fans hitting out at the franchise for ignoring the Proteas star.

“We will bowl first. Wicket looks good, want to put their batters under pressure and look to chase it,” said Rahul after winning the toss.

“We’ll try to stay as balanced as possible. Need to come out and put up show. We have had a few good victories. Few changes, Quinton misses out. [Arshin] Kulkarni is in the team. Mayank [Yadav] is back as well,” he added.
