MI vs GT, IPL 2025: Toss result and playing 11s for today’s match, umpires list and pitch report
Mumbai Indians (MI) are taking on Gujarat Titans (GT) in match number 56 of IPL 2025 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Both MI and GT are in firm contention for a place in the playoffs. Mumbai are third in the points table, with 14 points from 11 games. Gujarat also have 14 points from 10 matches, but are below Mumbai due to their net run rate.
When the teams clashed in the first half of IPL 2025 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Gujarat had beaten Mumbai by 36 runs. The task will be a lot tougher for GT this time round. MI are on an amazing six-match winning streak. Their top order is in excellent form, while their middle order has also made crucial contributions. Mumbai's bowling too has delivered the goods.
Gujarat have been a bit inconsistent in recent matches. They have won three and lost two of their last five matches. GT are heavily dependent on their top three of Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler in the batting department. Their middle order is yet to be tested properly. Speaking of their bowling, Prasidh Krishna has been outstanding, while Mohammed Siraj has also done well.

Today's MI vs GT pitch report
“It's pitch no. 8 at the Wankhede. Three games have been played on this surface before. There has been some weather around, but the surface has been well prepared. The match against RCB was a high-scoring one, while the game against CSK was around the 170-run mark. This looks like a 200-plus surface, but with showers expected, the captain winning the toss should bowl first.” - Matthew Hayden
