GT vs MI Key Players

One of the key battles to watch in this clash will be between Trent Boult and the Gujarat Titans' top order. The left-arm pacer has had the upper hand against Sai Sudharsan, dismissing him twice in this very season while conceding just 31 runs off 30 balls. He's also kept GT captain Shubman Gill in check, having dismissed him once and allowing only 74 runs off 69 deliveries across IPL encounters.

Boult's success isn't limited to the openers-he's also gotten the better of Sherfane Rutherford, removing him twice in just seven deliveries.

On the flip side, Mumbai Indians' Rohit Sharma has looked solid against GT pacers Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj, but has struggled against Rashid Khan. Although Rashid hasn't had a standout season by his own high standards, he's consistently been a thorn in Rohit's side-conceding only 35 runs in 32 deliveries while dismissing him twice.

The Afghan spinner has also contained Tilak Varma and Hardik Pandya effectively, with figures of 24 runs for two dismissals off 23 balls and 28 for two in 38, respectively.
