Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants, both struggling at the bottom of the IPL 2026 table, face off at Wankhede Stadium. With playoff hopes fading, both teams are desperate for a win.

On Thursday at the Brabourne Stadium, the 27-year-old was in his elements, claiming four Sri Lanka wickets to play an important role in India's 88-run win in the one day warm-up game.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni has mentored many youngsters in the Indian and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) set-up. There’s no one better than the former Indian captain when it comes to reading the match situation and acting accordingly. India all-rounder Karn Sharma's experience is no different.
