MI never really got going after being put in to bat by K L Rahul. The visitors slumped to 27/4 in the sixth over before Ishan Kishan (32), Nehal Wadhera (46) and Tim David (35 not out) took them to a modest total. Left-arm pacer Mohsin Khan (2/36) was the most successful LSG bowler.

Marcus Stoinis (62 off 46 balls) was the star with the bat for LSG. The Australian all-rounder added 58 with Rahul (28) and another 40 in the company of Deepak Hooda (18) for the second and third wicket, respectively.

The win helped LSG climb to third spot with 12 points from 10 matches, while MI are in ninth place with just six points from 10 outings.
