Krunal Pandya’s challenge in front of Mumbai Indians (Photo: BCCI)
New Delhi: Our own have become strangers. But, who made him a stranger? He himself is the one in front of whom he is now standing as an obstacle. We are talking about Krunal Pandya, who was once a part of Mumbai Indians. But now they are determined to get that team out of IPL 2023.
With a little hard work and a little luck, Mumbai Indians at least made it to the playoffs. But, here now Krunal Pandya is standing with his team between him and the qualifier 2 ticket. In the eliminator match of IPL 2023, Mumbai Indians will compete with Lucknow Super Giants. There is only one law in this match – the loser will be out and the winner will take one more step towards the final.

Krunal Pandya will increase the difficulty of Mumbai
Now whether the Mumbai Indians team moves towards the final or not, it will depend on the decisions of Krunal Pandya, who is captaining the Lucknow Super Giants. By the way, after regular captain KL Rahul was ruled out due to injury in the middle of the season, looking at the way he has taken charge of the team, it seems that Mumbai’s problems are going to increase.
Anyway, it is said that the piercer of the house destroys Lanka. Krunal Pandya can be seen doing the same thing against Mumbai Indians, the sample of which he has shown in the match played on 16th May this season. When he defeated Mumbai Indians by 5 runs under his own captaincy. In that match, Krunal played his biggest innings against Mumbai. He remained unbeaten after scoring 49 runs as he retired hurt after that.
Krunal was released by MI before the mega auction of IPL 2022
Please tell that the Mumbai Indians franchise had released Krunal Pandya before the mega auction of IPL 2022, after which he was associated with Lucknow Super Giants. After joining this team, Krunal Pandya has clashed with Mumbai Indians three times with the Lucknow team and has won all the three matches. But, the match to be held in Chennai will be different.
If Krunal Pandya, while captaining the Lucknow team, defeats the Mumbai Indians on the Chennai ground, then his account will be settled in true sense. Because his victory here would mean Mumbai Indians getting out of the title race.
