Five-time winners take on defending champions Gujarat Titans led by former Mumbai Indians star Hardik Pandya in a battle that promises fireworks galore

MI skipper Rohit Sharma at the Wankhede nets yesterday
Five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI), who bounced back in the tournament at the right time to be third on the points table, face a stiff challenge in the form of defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Wankhede Stadium tonight. The Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat outfit have enjoyed eight wins in the tournament and are on top of the table after 11 games.
Despite MI captain Rohit Sharma (191 runs) struggling with the bat, other batters like Suryakumar Yadav (376), Ishan Kishan (335) and Cameron Green (274) didn’t disappoint MI when it mattered. Even young Nehal Wadhera has had quick half-centuries in the last two games and Tim David played a few match-winning knocks.
