GT vs MI IPL 2025 Match Preview

The Gujarat Titans enter the Eliminator with a psychological edge, having secured victories in both previous encounters against Mumbai Indians at their home ground. Their top order, featuring Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan, has been instrumental throughout the season. However, the absence of Jos Buttler due to national duties could test their batting depth. The middle order, with players like Sherfane Rutherford and Shahrukh Khan, showed promise in recent matches, which will be crucial in this high-stakes game.

Mumbai Indians, despite a challenging season, have bolstered their squad with the inclusion of Jonny Bairstow, Charith Asalanka, and Richard Gleeson. Their experienced core, including Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav, will need to step up to counter Gujarat's formidable bowling attack led by Rashid Khan and Mohammed Siraj.

Ryan Rickelton, Will Jacks, and Corbin Bosch have exited the squad to join their respective teams ahead of the World Test Championship final. Stepping in as temporary reinforcements are Jonny Bairstow, Charith Asalanka, and Richard Gleeson, all of whom were seen actively participating in training sessions on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Kusal Mendis has been drafted in as a short-term replacement and is being considered for a direct entry into the playing XI, likely slotting in at the crucial No. 3 position.

GT vs MI Prediction: Who will Win IPL 2025 Eliminator?

Although both teams have had their share of on and off forms this season, we reckon Gujarat Titans do have the firepower to come out victorious in this crucial match against Mumbai Indians. It will be a battle between the Titans' batting and the Paltans' bowling and Shubman Gill and co. may have a slight advantage in it, only if they tackle Jasprit Bumrah well.
