MI vs GT Pitch Report
With Mumbai Indians reaching their target of 200 with 21 balls remaining against Royal Challengers Bangalore on Tuesday at Wankhede Stadium, there is no doubt that this is a strong batting wicket. We expect a par score to be around 210.
This ground has hosted 107 IPL matches so far out of which 58 are won by the chasing team. Some swing is always present here due to the ground’s location next to the sea.
Mumbai Weather Report
The forecast is for sunny weather at the start of the game with clear skies throughout. The humidity levels will reach over 70% by the end of the contest.

MI Team News
There were three changes to Mumbai Indians’ XI ahead of their excellent win over Royal Challengers Bangalore on Tuesday with the biggest one being Chris Jordan coming in for his debut for the Indians to replace Jofra Archer who returned home for further treatment on his elbow issue.
MI Key Players
- Suryakumar Yadav - When the right-handed top order batter is playing well he is absolutely unstoppable. His strike-rate of 186.14 is higher than any of his previous IPL campaigns.
- Tim David - The Australian international has been playing at a high level in his finisher role this season. From 20 matches in the IPL, his strike-rate is up at 185.79.
- Piyush Chawla - The spinner has been remarkably consistent this year and has picked up wickets in every match apart from in the two clashes with Royal Challengers Bangalore.
- Ishan Kishan - After a dry patch, Ishan Kishan is finally getting back into form. He did some clean and confident hitting in the last match. We are expecting another high-scoring knock from him in this match.
MI Possible Impact Player Substitutes
Ramandeep Singh, Tristan Stubbs, Vishnu Vinod, Sandeep Warrier, Raghav Goyal
Vishnu Vinod has hit seven T20 half-centuries but is still looking for his first IPL appearance of the season. Sandeep Warrier is an experienced right-arm pace bowler with best T20 figures of 3-19.
MI Team Form
Mumbai Indians have won three of their last four games and they were very impressive against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the last match.

One of the main reasons behind Gujarat Titans’ success this year has been their lack of chopping and changing of their side and giving their players long runs in the side. There are no injuries in the squad although Josh Little remains unavailable due to the Ireland v Bangladesh ODI series in England.
GT Key Players
- Shubman Gill - The classy right-handed opener took the Player of the Match Award in the last game and only Faf du Plessis and Yashasvi Jaiswal have hit more runs in the IPL 2023.
- Wriddhiman Saha - The keeper-batter has suddenly found his form after hitting 41 not out against Rajasthan Royals he hit 81 against Lucknow Super Giants.
- Rashid Khan - The Afghanistan spinner has never taken less than 17 wickets in an IPL season and needs three more dismissals to get his highest tally of wickets during an IPL campaign.
- Mohammed Shami - Shami will get assistance from the pitch to swing the ball and he can be difficult to face in this match. He has picked 19 wickets so far in 11 matches at an impressive economy of 7.23.
GT Possible Impact Player Substitutes
KS Bharat, Dasun Shanaka, Alzarri Joseph, Shivam Mavi, Jayant Yadav
With only three overseas players in the predicted XI, this opens up the possibility of Alzarri Joseph coming in for pace bowling reinforcement or Dasun Shanaka if big runs are required.
GT Team Form
Apart from the shock defeat to Delhi Capitals three games ago, Gujarat Titans have been in brilliant form and are looking for their fifth win in six matches during this clash.
GT Predicted Playing 11
Shubman Gill, Wriddhiman Saha, Hardik Pandya (c), David Miller, Vijay Shankar, Rashid Khan, Rahul Tewatia, Abhinav Manohar, Mohit Sharma, Mohammed Shami, Noor Ahmed

🏆 MI vs GT Prediction
This looks like being another closely contested IPL fixture with Mumbai Indians blowing recent sides away with the strength of their batting and Gujarat Titans proving to be just too good for most teams across the tournament. We expect Mumbai Indians to push the Titans very hard but the combination of Rashid Khan and Mohammed Shami is key. They are the best bowlers in the tournament and we are backing Gujarat Titans to win.
