The reason? Taking too long to bowl their overs. It happens, but not when it’s the last match of your season! This loss also officially wraps up Mumbai’s not-so-great performance this year.
KL Rahul Chipped in With A Cool 55 Runs
Lucknow batted first, putting up a decent 214 runs in their 20 overs. Nicholas Pooran went berserk with a crazy 75 runs off just 29 balls, including 8 sixes! KL Rahul chipped in with a cool 55 runs.
Oh, and by the way, remember that whole over rate thing? Yeah, that happened during Lucknow’s innings too.
Mumbai’s turn to bat, and things weren’t looking much brighter. They could only manage 196 runs in their 20 overs. Rohit Sharma tried his best with a quick 68 runs off 38 balls.
DeWald Brevis Chipped in With 23 Runs
Naman Dheer kept the fight alive with an unbeaten 62 runs off just 28 balls, hitting 4 fours and 5 sixes! DeWald Brevis chipped in with 23 runs.
That loss officially ends Mumbai’s forgettable season. They finished rock bottom in the points table, winning only 4 out of their 14 matches.

They even tried shaking things up by making Hardik Pandya the captain instead of Rohit Sharma this year. Looks like it wasn’t quite the magic potion they were hoping for.
