GT vs MI: Gujarat Titans Suffer Heaviest Defeat At Home As Mumbai Indians Crush Them By 99 Runs

Mumbai Indians thrashed Gujarat Titans by 99 runs in Ahmedabad on April 20, handing the Hardik Pandya-led side its heaviest loss in the Indian Premier League. The result also gave the Mumbai Indians their second win of IPL 2026 and ended a four-match losing streak.

The match turned decisively in favour of the Mumbai Indians through Tilak Varma and debutant Ashwani Kumar. Tilak smashed his first IPL hundred, scoring 101 from only 45 balls, while Ashwani tore through the Gujarat Titans line-up with figures of 4 for 24 in four overs.

GT vs MI: Titans Suffer Biggest Home Defeat In IPL

The 99-run margin against the Mumbai Indians surpassed the Gujarat Titans’ earlier worst defeat, which came in 2025. That loss was by 83 runs, also in Ahmedabad, against Chennai Super Kings during the 2025 IPL season, highlighting how dramatically this latest result eclipsed past setbacks.

Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill won the toss and chose to field, inviting the Mumbai Indians to bat first. Mumbai Indians responded with a strong total of 199 for 5, driven by Tilak’s aggressive innings. Gujarat Titans then collapsed for 100 in 15.5 overs while chasing a 200-run target.

The loss to Mumbai Indians now tops Gujarat Titans’ list of defeats by runs in the IPL. Their heaviest setbacks, including multiple big margins against Chennai Super Kings, Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants, are listed below, showing a pattern of trouble in high-pressure chases.

All-Time Records of Defeats In IPL

Despite the heavy setback, the Gujarat Titans are not the side with the largest defeat in league history. That record belongs to Delhi Capitals, who lost to Mumbai Indians by 146 runs at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on May 6, 2017, the biggest margin by runs in the IPL.

Several other one-sided results also feature on the all-time list. Royal Challengers Bengaluru appear three times, twice as winners by margins above 130 runs, and once as losers on the opening night of 2008. The leading IPL defeats by runs are detailed in the table below.

Ashwani Kumar’s display stood out for the Mumbai Indians, as the bowler struck four times on his IPL debut in 2026. Allah Ghazanfar and Mitchell Santner supported well, with each taking two wickets, ensuring the Gujarat Titans folded well inside their 20 overs while chasing a demanding total.

The result deepened the Gujarat Titans’ concerns after a mixed IPL 2026 run, while lifting the Mumbai Indians’ season. The match added a new entry to both the Gujarat Titans’ record defeats and the broader list of large IPL margins, underlining how harsh this loss felt for the Ahmedabad crowd.
