IPL-15 began three weeks ago, but Mumbai Indians (MI), the most successful team in the league’s history, are yet to open their account. The five-time champion side have lost all their five games and will be hoping to reverse the trend against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Brabourne Stadium today.  

‘Just a matter of few games’

Star batsman Suryakumar Yadav, who has scored 163 in three games with two half-centuries, is optimistic about his team bouncing back. “It’s still a champion team and it will always be a champion side! It’s just a matter of a few games. I feel very happy for the few people who have just joined and doing really well. Dewald [Brevis] and Tilak [Varma], have been really good with the way they are taking responsibility since the first game. I am sure they are going to make it really big,” Suryakumar said during a virtual press conference on the eve of the game.
