IPL 2025: Gujarat Titans’ top-order fireworks arrange a 36-run victory over Mumbai Indians | Cricket Information – The Occasions of India

NEW DELHI: Gujarat Titans‘ top-order batters delivered a blistering begin, organising a 36-run victory over Mumbai Indians of their IPL 2025 encounter on the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, on Saturday. This win marked GT’s first factors of the season, whereas MI suffered their second consecutive defeat.
Opting to area first, MI captain Hardik Pandya’s determination backfired as GT openers Sai Sudharsan (63 off 41 balls) and Shubman Gill (38 off 27) launched a commanding begin. The duo raced to 66/0 within the powerplay, placing strain on MI’s bowlers.

Pandya himself broke the partnership within the ninth over, dismissing Gill after a stable 78-run opening stand.
Star batter Jos Buttler (39 off 24 balls) then took cost alongside Sudharsan, including 51 runs in fast time to push GT to 129/2 in 13.5 overs. Sudharsan notched up his half-century earlier than falling to Trent Boult within the 18th over. Although MI bowlers managed 4 wickets within the final two overs, limiting GT to 196/8, the goal remained daunting.

In response, MI’s chase by no means gained momentum as Mohammed Siraj (2/34) struck early, dismissing Rohit Sharma (8) and Ryan Rickelton (6) contained in the powerplay, leaving MI at 35/2. Tilak Varma (39 off 36) and Suryakumar Yadav (48 off 28) tried a rescue act, stitching a 62-run partnership, however their efforts have been undone by Prasidh Krishna (2/18), who eliminated each set batters.
MI finally stumbled to 160/6, falling 36 runs brief as GT’s bowling unit efficiently defended their imposing complete. With this emphatic victory, GT showcased their batting depth and bowling firepower, whereas MI’s struggles with the bat continued in IPL 2025.
