The defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT) are all set to play against five-time winners Mumbai Indians (MI) on April 25 at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Notably, the visiting team have lost three of their first six matches and they are currently seventh on the IPL 2023 Points Table, while the Hardik Pandya-led side started the season really well, with four wins out of six games so far as well.
In their last match, the Gujarat Titans did well by defending just 135 runs against a quality batting lineup of Lucknow Super Giants. Wriddhiman Saha and Shubman Gill are in sublime form with the bat, while Mohit Sharma has impressed everyone with the ball. Meanwhile, young Afghan spinner Noor Ahmad has also left a mark.
Mumbai Indians, meanwhile, are struggling with the bat as well. However, swashbuckling batter Suryakumar Yadav has returned to form and that will help them gain the confidence of the team ahead of their upcoming match. With the ball, Piyush Chawla has been in stunning form so far but overall as a team, the Rohit Sharma-led side needs significant improvement to stay in the race as well.
