Over the years, the IPL has given us some iconic rivalries — CSK vs MI, RCB vs CSK, MI vs KKR — you name it. But this season, there's a new heavyweight clash stealing the spotlight: Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians. And the wait for this mouthwatering contest is almost over, as these two juggernauts face off tomorrow at the Wankhede. Both sides have looked like title contenders all season. Mumbai Indians, in particular, are on an absolute roll. They’ve strung together six wins in a row, and they’re not just scraping through — they’re blowing teams away. At this stage of the tournament, they’re sitting pretty in second place and looking every bit the team to beat.
Gujarat Titans aren’t far behind either. With seven wins from ten games, they’ve been one of the most consistent outfits this season. In their last five games, they've picked up three wins — not quite as dominant as MI, but certainly solid. What’s really set GT apart is their top order. Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler have all been in red-hot form, each crossing the 400-run mark this season. So, what we’ve got on our hands is a blockbuster matchup: arguably the best top-three in the league taking on the most in-form bowling attack in the tournament. Sparks are sure to fly, and this could easily be one of the most thrilling showdowns of IPL 2025.
If we talk about head to head record, then both the teams have faced each other 6 times in which Mumbai has won 2 matches whereas Gujarat Titans have won 4 matches. In such a situation, Mumbai Indians will have an advantage in this match because they will be playing on their home ground for the sixth time in IPL 2025 and in the previous match won by 100 runs against Lucknow Super Giants.
The matches between the two teams are always tough. MI's team is looking in good form but GT's main bowlers need to take responsibility as they are getting more runs in crucial time. For Mumbai, both openers Rohit Sharma and Ryan Reckless have become a good form.
Total Matches Played: 6
MI Wins: 2
GT Wins: 4
No Result/Abandoned Matches: 0
Despite MI having the firepower of Rohit Sharma, SuryaKumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma, MI's all-around strength and explosive players Hardik Pandya and Mitchel Santner give them the upper hand in this head-to-head contest. However, it’s always been a close battle, with both sides frequently trading blows in IPL clashes.
MI: W W W W W
GT:W L W W L
As far as fantasy cricket is concerned, MI might have the edge with their explosive batting lineup led by Rohit Sharma, SuryaKumar Yadav, Tilak Verma, and Ryan Rickelton but GT's balanced squad and the presence of all-rounders Washingaton Sundar and Rahul Tewatia make them a formidable opponent. Wankhede Stadium, with its high-scoring potential, might slightly favor the batting-heavy teams, so expect a run-fest.
No injury concern.

Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai offers a batsman-friendly pitch for T20 matches, characterized by consistent bounce and a true surface that favors aggressive stroke play. The pitch provides good carry, allowing fast bowlers to generate pace, while spinners can find some grip, especially in the middle overs. The short boundaries and humid conditions make it ideal for high-scoring games, with teams often posting big totals. However, the pitch can slow down slightly in the latter stages, making smart batting and tactical bowling crucial. .
