The defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT) are all set to take on five-time winners Mumbai Indians (MI) on April 25 at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Notably, the visiting team has lost three of their first six games and is 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 matches.
The defending champions have won four out of six games so far. In their previous match, they literally pulled off a miraculous victory against Lucknow Supergiants. LSG needed 31 runs from the last six overs with nine wickets in hand. The Gujarat Titans‘ bowlers made them choke and won the match by 7 runs.
Mumbai Indians have won three matches and lost as many so far. They took on Punjab Kings at home in the last game. Chasing 215 to win, they were on course but a mess up, in the end, meant they fell short by 13 runs. The path ahead isn’t an easy one for the five-time champions. They are scheduled to take on the teams from the top half in the upcoming matches.

Probable Best Batter Suryakumar Yadav
The 32-year-old Suryakumar Yadav has finally got his mojo back. He was terrific in Mumbai’s last IPL 2023 match against Punjab Kings and if he manages to play in a similar fashion, the fans are definitely up for a treat.
Probable Best Bowler Mohit Sharma
The veteran pacer was one of GT’s net bowlers in the last season. This year, he has become one of the players to watch out for on the team. The 34-year-old has been terrific with his line and length and is bowling at an economy of just 4.66. Thus, Mumbai batters may find it difficult to tackle Mohit in the middle.
IPL 2023 Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians Today’s Match Prediction
Both Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians will have high hopes of finishing in the top four of the group stage this season and we should be in for another entertaining match in Ahmedabad. Mumbai Indians have been playing well recently but lacked their edge against Punjab Kings. We expect Mumbai to put in a stronger display in this game but they are up against one of the best bowling attacks in the tournament. Our prediction is for Gujarat Titans to win.
