Overview
- Rickelton blasted 83 off 32 balls to steer Mumbai Indians to a 229 chase against Lucknow Super Giants, the team’s highest successful pursuit.
- He leads Mumbai’s scoring with 380 runs in eight matches at a 190.95 strike rate built on heavy leg-side hitting.
- His left-right pairing with Rohit Sharma has produced three century opening stands this season, including 148 against KKR and 143 against LSG.
- Mumbai Indians have only three wins in ten games, leaving their path to the IPL playoffs uncertain despite Rickelton’s form.
- His place has see-sawed with compatriot Quinton de Kock, and he returned to the XI after de Kock suffered a wrist injury.
