MI vs GT 2025, IPL Match Highlights: Gujarat Titans (GT) beat Mumbai Indians (MI) by three wickets as per the DLS method at the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday. The win took GT to the top of the table and now have 16 points, same as the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). However, GT enjoy a superior net run-rate and have also played a game less than second placed RCB. Mumbai Indians, who started at third, slipped to fourth as their six-match winning streak came to an end. The match also saw a couple of rain interruptions, leading to a reduced target as per the DLS rule.
Gujarat produced a powerful show and restricted Mumbai Indians (MI) at a modest 155/8 after inviting them to bat first at the Wankhede Stadium. Mumbai responded equally well when they walked out to defend as Trent Boult sent in-form Sai Sudharsan packing for run-a-ball 5. Jos Buttler and Shubman Gill then added 72 for the second wicket amid rain playing hide and seek as the chase progressed. Buttler was caught-behind for 30(27) against Ashwani Kumar, who was introduced in the match as concussion substitute.
Gujarat were batting at 107/2 in 14 overs when umpires finally called for covers. Gill was batting at 38(42), Sherfane Rutherford at the other end had hammered 26 off 12 balls by then. After a delay of almost 20 minutes action resumed as GT required 49 off 36 balls. Jasprit Bumrah resumed the proceedings and he castled Gill for 43(46). Boult was launched from the other end and he trapped Rutherford LBW for 28(15), which was also reviewed by the batter. Bumrah then cleaned up Shahrukh Khan for run-a-ball 6, leaving GT in a spot of bother.
Ashwani Kumar then trapped Rashid Khan LBW for 2(3). Geralad Coetzee and Rahul Tewatia were batting in the middle when rain stopped play for the second time with GT at 132/6, requiring 24 in the last two overs. The action resumed with the target reduced to 147 in 19 overs as per the DLS rules.
With 15 required in 6 deliveries, Deepak Chahar came to bowl the final over and he was welcomed with a four by Tewatia. Cotezee then hammered the quick for a six, which also saw the bowler bowl a no-ball. The latter was dismissed in the fifth ball, which reduced the equation to 1 off the final ball with new batter Arshad Khan at strike. The batters then stole a single, which in any other day would have been a run-out.
Meanwhile, the action began with Mohammed Siraj packing Ryan Rickelton for run-a-ball 2 in the second ball of the match. The bowler could have dismissed Will Jacks two balls later but Sai Sudharsan failed to hold onto the ball at short cover, the exact position where he had caught Rickelton. Jacks later went on to hammer his first fifty of IPL 2025.
Arshad Khan then sent Rohit Sharma packing, before he could many impact. However, poor fielding prevented Gujarat from making further impact as they dropped two more dollies in the powerplay, which saw MI accumulate 56/2. The other two chances saw Sai Kishore drop Suryakumar Yadav on 2 at mid-wicket, while Jacks got a second reprieve after Siraj missed the simplest of the all three chances at mid-wicket.
The drop catches did hurt Gujarat up to a certain extent before the team recovered. Suryakumar and Jacks added 71(43) for the third-wicket, during which GT also lost a review. Sai Kishore broke the stand after dismissing Suryakumar for 35(24). Shortly after Gujarat took another review, once again off Rashid Khan's bowling, however, it turned out to be an unsuccessful one. But it didn't really matter as Jacks departed for 53(35) in the same over.
Sai Kishore then picked his second wicket by packing Hardik Pandya for 1(3). Tilak Varma and Naman Dhir departed for single-digit scores, leaving Mumbai reeling at 123/7 in the 16.2 overs. Corbin Bosch's handy knock of 27 off 22 balls, during which he was also struck with a bouncer on the helmet off Prasidh Krishna's bowling, saw Mumbai reach a respectable mark.
