Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper KL Rahul walked out to bat against Mumbai Indians (MI) for Game 26 of the IPL at the Brabourne Stadium here on Easter Saturday, the batsman's 100th IPL game, the broadcasters showed short highlights of the hundred Rahul had scored at the Wankhede Stadium for Kings XI Punjab, a ground located less than a mile away from the CCI against the same opponents in 2019. It was a marriage of class and carnage. As it happened | Scorecard | Points TableThe Indian white-ball vice-captain was in the mood again on a balmy afternoon and belted probably a better hundred than the one he had scored three years ago as LSG, after being put into bat, ended with 199 for 4, as a clueless Mumbai Indians attack, barring the peerless Jasprit Bumrah, were haemorrhaging runs by the buckets. The total proved 18 runs too many for the hosts as MI lost their sixth game on the trot to equal RCB's horror start in 2019. Back to Rahul. His unbeaten 103 (60balls, 9x4, 5x6) was celebrated by the batsman with what has now become a trademark shutting of the ears and closed eyes. It was a meditative pose. The batsman himself was in the zone on a belter of a pitch for the entire length of his innings as every ball seemed to have an appointment with the middle of his SG willow. Before Saturday, Rahul averaged 66.1 in 14 matches against MI.
