IPL 2025: GT vs MI — Player Battles to Watch Out For
Match: Gujarat Titans vs. Mumbai Indians.
Date: May 30th, 2025
Time: 7:30 PM IST
Venue: Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium.

Key Player Battles to Watch Out For:

• Shubman Gill vs. Jasprit Bumrah
  – The form of GT captain against MI’s pace genius; will Bumrah’s bouncers and yorkers bother Gill early in the innings?
• Suryakumar Yadav vs. Rashid Khan
  – Explosive batting against leg-spin; this middle-overs clash could be a critical one that may change the course of the game for both teams.
• Hardik Pandya vs. Mohammed Siraj
  – An all-rounder's explosive batting will be tested against Siraj's swing and pace; this battle could decide the death overs!
• Rahul Tewatia vs. Trent Boult
  – Can Tewatia finish with his fearless batting against Boult's  yorkers and swing? This battle could define a major part of the game!
• Kusal Mendis vs. Deepak Chahar
  – Opposing wicketkeeper-batsman Mendis faces off against Chahar's swing early in the innings; we should be able to see what happens in the powerplay of the game.
• Naman Dhir vs. R Sai Kishore
  – An emerging talent who is opposed by the clever spinning and varying pace of R. Sai Kishore, does Dhir have the confidence to counter a turning pitch in the middle overs?
