Gujarat Titans are playing very well this season. They have won three matches in a row and are now in the top four of the points table. In their last match, they chased 181 runs and won by 5 wickets. Shubman Gill played a brilliant knock of 86 runs and has been very consistent this season. Jos Buttler and Sai Sudharsan have also supported well with the bat. In bowling, Kagiso Rabada took 3 wickets and Prasidh Krishna has been in great form throughout the tournament. GT will look to keep this momentum going and move higher in the standings.

Mumbai Indians are having a tough season. They lost their last match against Punjab Kings by 7 wickets. Even though they scored 195 runs, they could not defend the total. Quinton de Kock scored an amazing 112 not out, and Naman Dhir also played well. Their bowling, however, has been deficient, especially with Jasprit Bumrah not picking up wickets regularly.
