Commentary
We are back for the all-important run chase! The umpires are back out on the field and the players of Gujarat Titans can be seen in a huddle before striding onto the field as well. It will be the duo of Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton to open the innings for Mumbai Indians. GT have brought in Ishant Sharma as the Impact sub in place of Sherfane Rutherford. Mohammed Siraj has the new ball in hand and is raring to go.
... THE RUN CHASE ...
Right then, the stage is set for a thrilling run chase! Mumbai Indians' strong batting lineup will look to capitalize on the favorable conditions. Can Gujarat Titans' bowlers put up a fight and make life difficult for the visitors? We shall find out soon. Chase coming up shortly...
Trent Boult is in for a chat. He reflects on Mumbai Indians' bowling performance, citing a slower-than-expected pitch and praising his team's efforts in restricting Gujarat Titans to under 200. He ends by saying that he is hopeful that their batters chase this total.
Mumbai Indians' fielding woes, including a dropped catch and lackluster ground fielding, marred their efforts to restrict the Titans. However, Hardik Pandya's return to the side was a bright spot, as he proved to be MI's most effective bowler. Deepak Chahar and Trent Boult, failed to make an impact, while spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman had a disappointing debut too.
So Gujarat Titans end their innings with a massive 196 runs! It was all due to their top-order masterclass as Jos Buttler, Shubman Gill, and Sai Sudharsan stepped up well for them. Sai Sudharsan was the anchor of the innings as he scored another half-century. Rutherford's cameo was good too and Gujarat Titans end on a high.

Hardik Pandya, the skipper of Mumbai Indians, says they will bowl first as the dew factor is involved. Adds that the surface has good bounce and it does well in the second innings. He says that all the boys are excited and they are happy to play here. He says that he comes back into the side and ends by saying that it is all about playing good cricket and they will look to enjoy the game.

Pitch Report - Nick Knight and Michael Clarke are at the pitchside. They say that a different pitch is being used for this game. Clarke believes that the pitch is two-paced and patchy, unlike the previous game's pitch.

Will MI harness the energy of their skipper’s return, or will the Titans find a way to capitalize on their home turf? Stay tuned to find out! Toss and team news to follow shortly...
On the other hand, Gujarat Titans are determined to secure their first win after a valiant effort against Punjab Kings. They showcased their batting prowess with notable contributions from Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler, but will need to tighten up their bowling to capitalize on their batting strength.
The Mumbai Indians, who narrowly lost to Chennai Super Kings in their opener, are eager to shake off that defeat. Despite a lackluster batting performance last time, the experience and resolve of their squad can’t be underestimated. With key players like Rohit Sharma and Tilak Varma stepping up, MI will look to put their best foot forward in this crucial clash.
Welcome to the Clash in Ahmedabad! Cricket fans, get ready for an electrifying encounter as the Mumbai Indians take on Gujarat Titans at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium! This match marks a pivotal moment for both teams as they look to bounce back after disappointing starts to their campaigns in the 18th edition of the IPL. With Hardik Pandya returning to lead the Mumbai side, anticipation is high for what he brings to the field.
... Match Day ...
Match 9 of the 2025 Indian Premier League is set to unfold at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, where the Gujarat Titans will host the Mumbai Indians. Both teams are coming off opening-game defeats and will be eager to get their first points on the board. The Titans nearly pulled off the chase in a high-scoring season opener against the Punjab Kings but fell short while chasing 244. Their death bowling was a major concern, with the likes of Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Kagiso Rabada, and Rashid Khan all going for plenty. Sai Kishore was the only standout performer with the ball, and with Ishant Sharma and Gerald Coetzee waiting in the wings, GT might consider tweaking their pace attack. On the batting front, GT boasts a strong top order with Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler, but their middle order is an area of concern. Glenn Phillips and Sherfane Rutherford provide firepower in the middle order, but accommodating both in the XI is a challenge with only 4 overseas players allowed. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians traveled to Chennai for the much-anticipated El Clásico but fell short against the Super Kings. Despite managing only 155, they fought hard and stretched the game to the final over. The biggest positive from that match was the impressive debut of left-arm wrist spinner Vignesh Puthur. Both their batting and bowling departments will be strengthened by the return of Hardik Pandya, who will be back after serving a one-match ban for a slow over rate. Much will rest on their top order of Ryan Rickelton, Rohit Sharma, and Will Jacks, with Tilak Varma and Suryakumar Yadav adding firepower in the middle. On the bowling front, their new-ball duo of Trent Boult and Deepak Chahar lacked penetration in the Powerplay, while Mitchell Santner proved expensive. They will be eager to bounce back and make an impact as Mumbai search for their first points of the season. The Titans have lived up to their name whenever they have faced MI in Ahmedabad, with Mumbai still searching for their first IPL win at the Narendra Modi Stadium after three failed attempts. Will the fourth time be the charm for them? We shall find out together.
Right then, the Titans are up and running but MI remain one of the only two teams to still be without a win. Next up, it is a double header lined up for IPL fans on Sunday, 30 March. First up, Delhi Capitals will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in Visakhapatnam in what looks to be another high-scoring match and that will begin at 3.30 pm IST (10 am GMT). That will be followed by Rajasthan Royals hosting Chennai Super Kings in Guwahati. That game will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT) but you can join us sooner for the build-up of both those games. Cheers!
Prasidh Krishna is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his fine bowling effort and that is his first POTM award in IPL. Starts by saying that he doesn't have many words to say and was itching to get out and bowl and he's never waited that long to bowl in a T20 game. Adds that they watched the first innings closely and knew the cutters and the deliveries into the pitch were doing the trick. Goes on to say that he knew what was working and didn't try to test the speed gun and kept things simple.
Shubman Gill, the skipper of Gujarat Titans, starts by saying that the decision was made before the first match that they would play this match on black soil and their batting and bowling is also suited more to this pitch. Adds that once the ball gets old on this pitch, it gets difficult to hit the boundaries and hence, they tried to go hard in the Powerplay. Mentions that they can talk about plans but in the end, all that matters is that it came off for them and goes on to say that he kept Rashid Khan for the death but the pacers bowled well in the middle phase and opted to let Prasidh Krishna finish his lovely spell. He ends by saying that he is looking forward to the next couple of games.
The Presentation ceremony...
Sai Kishore is now down for a quick chat. Sai starts by saying that Hardik Pandya is a friend of his and they try to keep the rivalry on the field, during the game. Goes on to say that he didn't get much purchase off the deck and needed to bowl defensively in order to help the team. On his contest with Suryakumar Yadav, Sai reckons that SKY played really well and almost nailed every sweep shot but the skipper also helped him out. Mentions that he is looking forward to the season and has worked really hard and hopes that it is a fruitful season.
Hardik Pandya, the captain of Mumbai Indians, says that it is tough to point out one thing in particular as they lagged behind in all three departments and ended up conceding 20 or so run more than they should have. Adds that the opposition openers batted well and the bowlers didn't bowl badly as they managed to take minimal risk and still find the boundaries. Mentions that the top order shouldn't be a concern but they need to take responsibility and hopefully, the batters come to the party. Adds that the opposition picked up the way he bowled and the off paced deliveries were difficult to put away as the bounce was variable as well.
Earlier in the game, Hardik Pandya won the toss and opted to bowl first on a black-soil pitch which Gujarat Titans prepared keeping Mumbai Indians in mind as MI are used to play on a red soil pitch at Wankhede. The GT openers took things in their hands and smashed 66 runs in the Powerplay. However, the pitch quickly slowed down and batting wasn't easy but Jos Buttler managed to hit his way out of trouble and the top three did enough to ensure GT got to a formidable total. MI bowled well in the second half and it was skipper Hardik Pandya who used the variations brilliantly.
Mumbai Indians needed a big Powerplay with the bat and Rohit Sharma got things going with a couple of boundaries, only to be dismissed inside the first over. Tilak Varma came in and played a few fine shots as Ryan Rickelton was kept off strike and eventually he too fell inside the first 5 overs. Suryakumar Yadav was then the one who took the game to the opposition after the Powerplay and having started positively, Varma started to slow down against the off-paced deliveries. He soon perished as the pressure kept on mounting and SKY fell just short of his 50 which was really the last nail in the coffin for MI.
The Titans had a solid total on board on a track that was on the slower side and lacked bounce and then Mohammed Siraj gave them the perfect start by picking up both openers inside the Powerplay. The spinners kept things tight but couldn't get the wickets and Sai Kishore just ended up conceding too many boundaries. It was then a superb spell from Prasidh Krishna in the second half of the chase that got the Titans command of the game and with wickets coming at regular intervals, they managed to suffocate the MI batters.
A sensational bowling display from Gujarat Titans has earned them their first victory of the 2025 IPL as Mumbai Indians' history of a slow start to the season continues. It was pretty comfortable in the end for GT and once again, the team batting first has won the game in this particular fixture which is pretty much against the general norm.

Mohammed Siraj to Mitchell Santner, A prolonged appeal for LBW and the finger finally goes up. This is bowled on a good length and around leg by Mohammed Siraj, getting the ball to just move off the pitch. Mitchell Santner comes inside the line to flick but misses and gets hit on the pads. The finger goes but but the review is taken. No bat involved but Ball Tracking shows that the ball pitched outside the line of leg stump. It will be a dot ball and Gujarat Titans win the game by 36 runs!

Sai Kishore to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR! That's excellent placement from SKY and it looks like Sai Sudharsan has hurt himself in the field. Full and pretty straight, Suryakumar Yadav gets inside the line and this time he is able to sweep it fine enough of deep backward square leg for a boundary. Sudharsan, the man chasing the ball seems to have pulled a hamstring and the physio is out to have a look. He is hobbling off the field for now, hopefully, he is fine.

Sai Kishore to Tilak Varma, Oh, good runnning and that's put pressure on the fielders, leading to an additional run. Shortish ball on the pads, tucked away in between square leg and mid-wicket by Varma. Rashid Khan comes charging in from the deep as the batters look for two and misses the ball. Kagiso Rabada behind him also misses the ball and the batters pick up three runs.
Strategic break! This has been a solid bowling display from GT and there doesn't seem to be much or any dew at the moment. MI have again failed to get that positive start with the bat but Tilak Varma and Suryakumar Yadav at two of the most in-form T20 batters of the last year or so and they are building up a good platform from where MI can launch. GT know they need a couple of more wickets as that middle order of MI is inexperienced apart from Hardik Pandya. An interesting phase of play awaits. Sai Kishore now comes into the attack as well.

Rashid Khan to Tilak Varma, A loud appeal and given! Tilak Varma though, reviews it in an instant. Was there any bat or glove involved? Rashid Khan bowls it flat and it is the googly, darted across from around middle, Varma sits down to reverse sweep but misses and gets hit on the pads. UltraEdge comes in and we can see that the ball just kissed the bottom part of the glove before it hit the pads. Good review, NOT OUT!
Interesting move as Rashid Khan comes in to bowl the final over of the Powerplay.

Mohammed Siraj to Ryan Rickelton, OUT! BOWLED'EM! Mohammed Siraj uproots the other opener as well and it seems like he's shrugged off the last game off his shoulders. Another wobbled-seam delivery, at a searing 145.7 clicks and on a nagging length on off and middle. The ball angles away and Ryan Rickelton ends up swinging across the line. The ball catches a bit of the inside edge and crashes the off stump that gets knocked out of the ground. MI 35/2 now!
