Hardik Pandya’s Mumbai Indians Lose To Shubman Gill’s Gujarat Giants

In the IPL 2024 clash between Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians, Shubman Gill led his team to a thrilling six-run victory in their opening game, making a promising debut as the captain of Gujarat Titans. Despite Jasprit Bumrah’s exceptional performance with figures of 3/14, Mumbai Indians fell short as their batters couldn’t capitalise on his brilliance.

MI struggled to chase down the target of 169 runs, facing setbacks when they needed 43 runs off the last five overs with seven wickets in hand. This loss continued their trend of not winning their IPL opener since their victory against Chennai Super Kings in 2012.

Although spinners Rashid Khan (0/23 in 4 overs) and R Sai Kishore (1/24) were economical, veteran Mohit Sharma (2/32) played a crucial role with his variations, while Spencer Johnson (2/25) and Umesh Yadav (2/32) bowled brilliantly in the final overs. Hardik Pandya’s decision to bat at No. 7 raised eyebrows, although he managed to score a six and a four in the last over before falling to Umesh Yadav.
