Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians LIVE Scorecard, IPL 2025 LIVE: After Brutal Drop, Rohit Sharma Makes Heartfelt Gesture To MI Youngster

GT vs MI LIVE: 50 up for GT!

GT needed a big over after the slightly slow start to the powerplay, and they got exactly that in the Mujeeb over. Now their run rate has crossed 9, and they’ll hope to take the momentum from here. Importantly, not a single wicket lost by them so far.

Meanwhile, 50 up for GT in 5.3 overs! Classy 6 by Gill off Chahar, comes down the track and slams it for a maximum.

IPL 2025 LIVE: Sai Sudharshan SIX!

Mujeeb ur Rahman into the attack, and what a welcome by Sai Sudharshan! First ball, 4! Second ball, 6! Excellent inside out shot, over the off-side for the maximum. Gill continues the party! Boundary over fine leg. 15 off the over, bad start by Mujeeb.

GT 46/0 (5)

IPL 2025 LIVE: Great over by Chahar

Excellent over by Deepak Chahar. Only 5 runs off it, including a wide delivery. Good start by the MI bowlers, as Gill and Sai Sudharshan have not been able to unleash themselves yet. Will Chahar and Boult be given another over in the powerplay?

GT 31/0 (4)

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Sai Sudharshan, classy!

TWO FOURS! Sai Sudharshan looking in great touch. First, a classy straight drive down the ground for a boundary. Two balls later, deft flick through the mid-wicket region for another 4. Trent Boult sighs, great timing by the young opener.

GT 24/0 (2.4)

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Rohit Sharma to Vignesh Puthur

Broadcast visuals show Rohit Sharma putting an arm around and giving a pat to Vignesh Puthur ahead of the game. Vignesh was superb against CSK, and must feel gutted to have been left out. Great gesture by Rohit!

IPL 2025 LIVE: 4 more, Gill!

Another boundary! Classic Shubman Gill. Pitched short by Deepak Chahar, and the GT captain puts it away in his own style. Looks in great touch today.

GT 12/0 (1.2)

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: 4! Gill up and running

Great shot by Shubman Gill! Comes down the track, lofts it over the 30-yard circle and the ball runs away for a boundary through the point region. Boult had bowled a good over up to that point, but excellent from Gill to get GT going.

GT 7/0 (1)

GT vs MI LIVE: Here we go!

Trent Boult to B Sai Sudharshan, WE ARE LIVE! Tight start by the experienced Kiwi, Sai Sudharshan not finding a run in the first couple of balls.

GT 0/0 (0.2)

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: 3 minutes to go!

We are moments away from the start of the game. Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharshan will come out to open for Gujarat Titans. Expect Deepak Chahar and Trent Boult to take the new ball for MI.

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: No Vignesh Puthur!

This comes as a big shock, but Mumbai Indians have left out Vignesh Puthur from their team today. He’s not even among the impact substitutes. Mujeeb and Santner will be the spin options for MI. 

Vignesh took 3/32 vs CSK on IPL debut, so this is a major call!

IPL 2025 LIVE: GT Playing XI

Gujarat Titans playing XI vs MI:

Shubman Gill (c), B Sai Sudharsan, Jos Buttler (wK), Sherfane Rutherford, Shahrukh Khan, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, R Sai Kishore, Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna.

Mostly the same for GT, but Gill has warned that one change may be made later.

Mumbai Indians playing XI vs GT:

Rohit Sharma, Ryan Rickelton (wk), Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya (c), Naman Dhir, Mitchell Santner, Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Satyanarayana Raju.

Big change for MI! Mujeeb ur Rahman comes in for Will Jacks.

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: HARDIK WINS TOSS!

MI captain Hardik Pandya wins the toss and opts to bowl vs Gujarat Titans! No major surprise at the toss, with the winning captain still continuing to choose to field. Shubman Gill confirms that Jos Buttler will continue to bat at No. 3.

Gill expresses that he would’ve also chosen to bowl had he won the toss.

IPL 2025 LIVE: Will we see a surprise at toss?

Shubman Gill and Hardik Pandya are making their way towards the pitch. Hardik practicing a few flips of the coin, but it will be Gill who does the spin today. Gill and Pandya engaging in some pre-match banter, they look in good spirits!

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: 3 minutes to toss time

We are just 3 minutes away from toss time for the Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians clash! Both sides are aiming for their first victory of IPL 2025. The game will be played at the mammoth Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

IPL 2025 LIVE: 15 minutes to toss!

We are just 15 minutes away from toss time, at the Narendra Modi Stadium! Remember, both teams are vying for their first win of the tournament. Shubman Gill will lead GT, while Hardik Pandya returns from suspension to captain MI against his old team.

IPL 2025 LIVE: GT vs MI H2H?

Gujarat Titans hold a narrow lead over Mumbai Indians when it comes to their head-to-head record in IPL. In 5 games played, GT have won 3, MI have won 2.

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: GT probable XI

Here’s Gujarat Titans’ probable XII vs MI:

Sai Sudharshan, Shubman Gill, Jos Buttler, Sherfane Rutherford, Shah Rukh Khan, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Washington Sundar, Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj, Sai Kishore, Prasidh Krishna.

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: MI probable XI

Here is Mumbai Indians’ probable XII vs GT:

Rohit Sharma, Will Jacks, Naman Dhir, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Robin Minz, Deepak Chahar, Mitchell Santner, Vignesh Puthur, Trent Boult, Reece Topley.

IPL 2025 LIVE: Pressure on GT middle order

While Gujarat Titans’ top 3 – Gill, Sai Sudharsan and Buttler – is arguably the best in the IPL, their middle order lacks the firepower. Sherfane Rutherford couldn’t execute properly in the run chase, while Shah Rukh Khan and Mahipal Lomror lack the IPL pedigree for now.

GT vs MI LIVE: Win toss, bat first?

With the Narendra Modi Stadium being a terrific pitch to bat on, it might make sense for the team winning the toss to bat first. Nearly every team has chosen to bowl in this tournament, but PBKS showed in the previous game here that it is possible to win by batting first. Will we finally see a different decision being taken?

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Can SKY step up?

Much like Rohit, pressure is also on Suryakumar Yadav to deliver. We know how devastating he can be, but SKY has been out of the runs for quite a while now. Can he finally deliver the outstanding knock we know he’s capable of?

GT vs MI LIVE: How good is Vignesh Puthur?

Amidst the talk of all the stars like Rohit, Gill, Hardik and Bumrah, let’s take a moment to talk about Vignesh Puthur. 24-year-old, chinaman, never played a first-class game. Thrown in against the daunting yellow CSK brigade, and what a performance! 3 wickets on debut. Another example of MI’s impressive scouting process, and another reason to thank the IPL.

GT vs MI LIVE: Here’s what Jayawardene said

Mahela Jayawardene on Pandya possibly being booed:

“Twelve months on, he (Hardik) has achieved a lot more, and I hope that people will see beyond what happened last year. I hope that we can enjoy a good game of cricket.”

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Will Hardik be booed today?

Hardik Pandya was heavily booed by the Gujarat crowd following his switch from GT to MI. It marked the start of a wretched season for him, as Mumbai Indians finished last and he received a negative welcome nearly everywhere. 

Pandya will hope, having delivered two ICC titles for India, that his perception will have changed by now in front of the Gujarat faithful. Don’t forget, Gujarat is also the state from where Pandya comes.

GT vs MI LIVE: Gujarat Titans’ combination

Gujarat Titans opened with Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharshan in the first game, with the latter making a superb 74. Jos Buttler walked in at No. 3. However, the Englishman holds a terrific record at the Narendra Modi Stadium, so it begs the question whether GT should change their batting order.

IPL 2025 LIVE: Can Rohit find his form?

Rohit Sharma started off IPL 2025 in the worst possible manner, scoring a 4-ball duck as MI lost to CSK in their first game. His record at the Narendra Modi Stadium, where today’s match will be played, is not great either.

In 5 IPL games, Rohit has managed only 125 runs here, at a strike rate of under 140 and without a single half-century. 

GT vs MI LIVE: No Jasprit Bumrah!

While Hardik Pandya returns, Jasprit Bumrah is still not expected to feature for MI. Head coach Mahela Jayawardene has stated that Bumrah is “fit”, but there is no clarity on whether he can play a full game.

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: First game of Hardik’s season

Hardik Pandya missed the first game of IPL 2025, having been suspended for slow-over rate in the final game of IPL 2024. In his absence, it was Suryakumar Yadav who led the team. Now, Pandya will be back, in front of the fans he led to glory, but the same ones who turned against him last year.

GT vs MI LIVE: Hardik Pandya’s homecoming!

So much of the storyline of this game surrounds Hardik Pandya. His move from GT to MI drew in so much controversy, so much drama, even negatively at one point. Now, the tide has turned. He is a T20 World Cup winner. He is a Champions Trophy winner. Hardik Pandya is adored by India fans all over now, as he returns to Gujarat.

Don’t forget, he was the captain as GT won the cup in 2022 and came runners-up in 2023!

IPL 2025 LIVE: Both sides eyeing first win!

Both GT and MI got off to a losing start to their IPL 2025 campaign. Gujarat narrowly lost to Punjab Kings, failing to chase down 240+, while Mumbai Indians were comprehensively defeated by Chennai Super Kings in the ‘El Clasico’.

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Hello and welcome!

A very good afternoon to one and all, it is time for another blockbuster game in the Indian Premier League! Today, one-time champion Gujarat Titans take on five-time winners Mumbai Indians!
