All attention is on the upcoming Eliminator game between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Mumbai Indians (MI), scheduled for at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, New Chandigarh, on Friday, May 30 at 7:30 PM IST.
Match Preview: GT vs MI
After losing their last two games, Gujarat Titans will hope to get back on track and stay in the title fight. Although this year’s GT team is very young, they have triumphed over Mumbai Indians more often than they have lost, beating them five out of the seven times they have met. MI will go up against GT, who are led by young talents and a few experienced players, as they try to secure Qualifier 2.
This year, Mumbai Indians, who are led by Hardik Pandya, have had quite a lot of ups and downs. They started slow but returned with confidence and have saved their best for the knockout game. Owing to their experience at playoff level, MI will depend on their aura in top games and their strong lineup to drive forward.
