MI vs LSG: Mumbai Indians veteran fast bowler Trent Boult is very close to creating history in the 45th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. This star bowler of New Zealand has a golden opportunity to complete 300 wickets in T20 cricket in this match. Currently, Boult has 296 T20 wickets to his name, and now all eyes will be on his performance against Lucknow Supergiants (LSG).

If Boult takes four wickets in this match, he will become the third New Zealand bowler to take 300 or more wickets in T20 cricket. Before him, Tim Southee (343 wickets) and Ish Sodhi (310 wickets) have achieved this feat. This achievement will not only be a milestone for his personal career but can also prove to be important for Mumbai Indians, who are struggling to stay strong in the playoff race.

Bolt shines in IPL

Trent Bolt's IPL journey has also been very impressive. He has taken 131 wickets in 113 matches so far and he is also the Kiwi bowler who has taken the most wickets in IPL history. Bolt's sharp bowling with the new ball has always been a headache for the opposition teams. In IPL 2025 too, he has taken 10 wickets in 9 matches so far and has given his team early success on many important occasions.

Do or die match for Mumbai Indians

If he is successful in demolishing Lucknow's top order in the powerplay, then Mumbai's path to victory can be much easier.

Golden opportunity for Trent Boult

His bowling still has the same edge that makes him one of the best bowlers in world cricket. A memorable performance against Lucknow will not only enrich his personal record but will also give Mumbai Indians the necessary motivation to keep them in the title race.
