Poll<\/p>\n

Will Rishabh Pant’s form improve in the remaining matches of IPL 2025?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In-form Mumbai Indians, led by a blazing 54 off 28 balls by Suryakumar Yadav<\/a> and a clinical 4-wicket burst from Jasprit Bumrah<\/a>, utterly outclassed LSG. With this win, MI recorded their fifth consecutive victory, while LSG slumped to their second defeat in a row and now sit precariously in sixth place.
For Pant, the problems are piling up \u2014 loss of form, mounting pressure as captain, and now financial penalties. With only four matches left in the league stage, the 27-year-old will need a turnaround quickly if LSG are to stay in playoff contention.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
