Ashwani Kumar to Rashid KhanA total celebration douser on the last ball. Ashwani Kumar landed the ball on a length around leg stump Rashid looked to heave but missed and was hit on the pads. Kumar appealed but the umpire did not raise his finger. MI were celebrating for the win but Hardik decided to take the reviewjust to see whether the youngster could get another wicket. Technology showed the ball to be pitching outside leg and that ended the story. MUMBAI INDIANS WIN BY 20 RUNS AND ENTER QUALIFIER 2 TO MEET PUNJAB KINGS!

Trent Boult to Sherfane RutherfordOUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Trent Boult strikes at a crucial time for MI! Sherfane Rutherford cannot believe it as this was right in the slot. Full and on middle angling there to be put away. Rutherford clears his front leg away and looks to slog it over mid-wicket but gets it from the toe-end of the bat and fails to get the timing right. The ball flies in the airand Tilak Varma at deep mid-wicket runs forward and takes the catch. A huge blow for GT as SR departs for 24 off 15. They still need 36 runs in 11 balls.

Landed outside off fractionally short Mendis rocked back to try and play somewhere between a pull and a slog. While trying to do so his back foot slid back resulting in him slipping and went on to make contact with the off stump demolishing the sticks. Extremely unfortunate for Mendis and it has been that sort of a night for him. He is already walking back even as the umpires want to check what exactly happened. They check for the no ball which is deemed fine and then they check the replay. By the time the replay comesMendis is already near the GT dugout. The 64-run stand has been broken and Mendis departs for 20 (10). Gujarat Titans are 67/2 after 6.2 overs. Equation - 162 from 82.

Trent Boult to Shubman GillOUT! LBW! Who else? Trent Boult strikes once again in the first over! He just keeps getting the early breakthroughs for MI and this one is a big one as Shubman Gill walks back on 1 off 2. Pitches it up and on middle gets it shape in sharply. Gill stays back and looks to whip it across the line but misses it completely and gets hit on the pads right in front of the stumps. There is a huge shout for LBW and up goes the finger. However the GT skipper takes the review but UltraEdge and Ball Tracking both go against himand he takes a review with him. GT are rocked early here!

Right then. Gujarat Titans' journey ends in the Eliminator of IPL 2025, despite being solid throughout the season. Lack of momentum before the playoffs probably hurt them in this match, despite being in a good position. Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, came into this match having won 7 out of their previous 9 matches and it was that winning factor which kept them in the game throughout. They now head to Ahmedabad, to take on Punjab Kings on Sunday, June 1, 2025, in Qualifier 2 and will hope that this momentum takes them into the final on Tuesday. The first ball will be bowled at 7.30 pm IST (1400 GMT) but our buildup will begin well in advance. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
Oh wow. There is some drama left. Mumbai Indians have won the game but they want to review for LBW! Looks to be pitching outside leg. By a mile. What an anticlimax. If it matters, review lost for MI.
Rashid Khan is in now at number 8, replacing Shahrukh Khan.
Gleeson is leaving the field now, to get his hamstring checked. And Hardik Pandya has thrown the ball to Ashwani Kumar to finish off the pending over. 3-0-28-0 so far.
Boult does love bowling to Rutherford in the IPL. That's the 3rd time in 8 balls that he has dismissed the West Indian. In 4 meetings, he has conceded just 9 runs! Richard Gleeson to bowl the final over. 3-0-36-1 so far. But he pulls up right at the delivery stride and has to reload. Seems like a hamstring issue but he is good enough now.
Shahrukh Khan walks in next at number 7, replacing Sherfane Rutherford.
Trent Boult to bowl the 19th over. 3-0-44-1 so far.
MI's pace unit has been consistent and is the only one to have an economy of below 10 in each phase of the innings among teams in IPL 2025. Hardik Pandya aims to nip this game into the bud. Here comes the champion, Jasprit Bumrah. 3-0-19-1 so far.
Since IPL 2020, MI's pace unit has picked up the most wickets among teams. Their pace unit also has the best economy among teams in IPL 2025.
STRATEGIC TIMEOUT. Shubman Gill manages a smile to someone as he gets up to have a chat with his players. It is now Mumbai's game to lose from here on. Ironically, the teams are mirroring each other, because after 15.4 overs, MI were 168/2 while GT are 170/4. But Mumbai had a Hardik in store. Do Gujarat have anyone similar? Interesting. Rahul Tewatia has been promoted ahead of Shahrukh Khan at number 6, replacing Sai Sudharsan.
MI's bowling has been led by their royal pacers who've aggregated 70 wickets at a strike rate of 15.8 - the second best for any pace unit in an IPL season since 2016. This was before this match began. Richard Gleeson returns. 2-0-22-0 so far.
Jasprit Bumrah has bowled with an economy of 6.3 - the best economy by a bowler in IPL 2025. This is the 5th time Bumrah has bowled with an economy of below 7 in an IPL season. In fact, this is also the best economy Jasprit has bowled with in an IPL season (Minimum 10 inns). Ashwani Kumar is back on. 1-0-11-0 so far.
Gujarat Titans use their impact substitution. Sherfane Rutherford replaces Mohammed Siraj. Rutherford is in at number 5, replacing Washington Sundar.
Trent Boult has been MI's leader and picked up 20 wickets - third most among pacers. If he can go for 18, it means that the ball has become like a wet bar of soap. Time for the ball to be changed? Meanwhile, Suryakumar Yadav is down in pain now. Cramps? Time for the bowler to be changed. Jasprit Bumrah is back on. 2-0-15-0 so far.
Each of GT's middle-order batters has batted at a strike rate of over 150 this season (Minimum 50 runs). Trent Boult is back on. 2-0-26-1 so far.
Hardik is one of the 4 top all-rounders in the IPL who have scored 2500-plus runs and taken more than 75 wickets in the IPL. His form will be very crucial for MI at this stage. Ashwani Kumar to bowl now.
The unsettled middle order of GT has the lowest average (20.5) but also the best strike rate (162) amongst teams in IPL 2025. Mumbai Indians announce their impact substitution - Rohit Sharma is done for the Eliminator and ASHWANI KUMAR comes in as his replacement.
Since IPL 2022, Hardik has reached the playoffs thrice in 4 seasons with 1 title, making him one of the key captains in this period. The experiment of using Naman Dhir lasts just one over. Richard Gleeson returns. 1-0-11-0 so far.
Last time GT and MI faced each other at the Wankhede, Bumrah got the better of Gill while Boult took care of Sai Sudharsan. The opposite has already happened, with Boult removing Gill. Will Bumrah complete the other half of the puzzle? Not for now. Here's Hardik Pandya again. 1-0-14-0 so far.
This is a battle between the best batting side (GT) of IPL 2025, averaging 37.3, taking on the best bowling side (MI) of IPL 2025, averaging 21.9. Naman Dhir to roll his arm over now. Also, Jasprit Bumrah is going off the field.
Washington Sundar is in next at number 4, replacing Kusal Mendis.
STRATEGIC TIMEOUT. Despite the early loss of Shubman Gill, the Titans are trying to fight hard. They are not too far behind MI's Powerplay score of 79/0 and will understand that if they can keep wickets in hand, they can cause some headaches to one of the best bowling attacks in the tournament. As predicted by Jonny Bairstow at the innings break, there is nothing much in the wicket and the batters are playing pure timed shots. It does appear as if the ball is skidding on slightly under the lights. But still, a long way to go. First sign of spin in the chase. Mitchell Santner comes onto bowl.
Interestingly, Mendis has a great record in the T20 knockouts he's featured in – 529 runs at an average of 52.9 prior to this game. Jasprit Bumrah is back on. 1-0-4-0 so far.
Richard Gleeson comes into the attack now on his MI debut.
No respite for GT as it will be the world-class Jasprit Bumrah to share the attack.
Kusal Mendis walks out to bat at number 3.
