Right from its birth, the Indian Premier League has witnessed some unforgettable rivalries and high-octane matches laced with edge-of-the-seat drama. One among them is the newly born and fastest-growing rivalry that of five-time IPL champions Mumbai Indians (MI) and the presently very dynamic Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). Although the new team, LSG, has taken MI on heads-up in fight, confidence, and clinical execution in battle.
In general, the Mumbai Indians, the five-time IPL champions, would be respected at all times on the ground. But for the last two seasons, another contender has come forth to challenge their reign: the Lucknow Super Giants. On the contrary, MI has become quite a handful for LSG, which was considered an easy grunt work from the start. Never has the contest turned to become a rivalry of surprises, stirring moments, and upcoming potential superstar births. There have been fireworks whenever the two teams cross paths; LSG and MI hardly allow each other to have an easy day on the field. It is a clash of legacy versus ambition.
