In a thrilling IPL 2025 Eliminator clash at New Chandigarh on Friday, Mumbai Indians (MI), led by Hardik Pandya, defeated Gujarat Titans (GT) by 20 runs to advance to Qualifier 2. MI posted a formidable 228/6 in 20 overs, which proved too steep for GT, who managed 208/6 despite a valiant 80 off 49 balls from Sai Sudharsan.
The match began with MI captain Hardik Pandya winning the toss and opting to bat. Opener Rohit Sharma led the charge with a scintillating 81 off 50 balls, including nine fours and four sixes, setting a solid foundation for MI’s total. GT’s bowlers struggled to contain MI, with Prasidh Krishna and Sai Kishore picking up two wickets each.
In response, GT’s chase relied heavily on Sudharsan’s aggressive knock, but lack of support from other batters hindered their efforts. MI’s Trent Boult was the pick of the bowlers, claiming two crucial wickets to keep GT in check.
With this victory, Mumbai Indians now move on to Qualifier 2, where they will face Punjab Kings (PBKS) for a chance to secure a spot in the IPL 2025 final.
