This could potentially be his final innings for MI amid rumors of him moving to another franchise next season. Naman Dhir’s explosive maiden IPL fifty came too late, as his 62 off 28 balls, featuring four fours and five sixes, wasn’t enough. MI concluded their disappointing campaign with just four wins in 14 games. 

 For LSG, Krunal Pandya and Ravi Bishnoi shone, while pacers Mohsin Khan and Naveen-ul-Haq were expensive but managed to take one and two wickets, respectively. Despite their 18-run victory, LSG couldn’t secure a playoff spot but ended their season on a positive note. A win in any of their last three games, excluding the MI match, would have made their season even better.
