GT vs MI Dream11 Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – IPL 2025, 9th Match

Match Preview

GT and MI will be playing their second match of IPL 2025. Both of them lost their opening encounter in a pretty convincing manner. There are some new players that are going to be available for selection, most notably Hardik Pandya, and we also have a better idea of the players that showed good form in their previous outing.

A loss is not going to be catastrophic for either team but neither team will want to go 0-2 and fall behind in the playoff race.

Injuries & Illnesses

Hardik Pandya is fit and available for selection. Jasprit Bumrah continues to recover at the NCA and there is no news when he will join IPL 2025.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The weather in Ahmedabad is expected to be absolutely clear with no chance of rain. The surface favors the pace bowlers and the batter more. That is something you should keep in mind while making your Dream11 teams.

GT vs MI Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Jos Buttler and Ryan Rickelton are both excellent options, and they are also expected to make a big contribution with the bat. Having them both in the team is an easy choice to make.

Batters

So many brilliant options to choose from in this match that this category might end up being very important. Rohit Sharma is in poor form, at least in T20 cricket, and so we have to risk not picking him. Instead, Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, SKY, and Tilak Varma are the players we recommend. Bevon Jacobs has not got a chance yet but he is someone that you want keep an eye on also in case he makes the playing eleven.

All Rounders

Hardik Pandya is the easy choice to make here while Will Jacks with his destructive batting and more than useful spin bowling is also a great option.

Bowlers

Kagiso Rabada has a great record against Rohit Sharma. We also think it might be worth picking some lesser-owned players like R Sai Kishore and Vignesh Puthur. Rashid Khan and Trent Boult are super bowlers to have but they will not help you distinguish your team from the others.

GT vs MI Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

Ryan Rickelton looked in prime form before getting out in the previous match. The young South African had a brilliant SA20 and looks the part. We will pick him as captain and hope he makes a big score!

Vice-Captain

Tilak Varma is one of the first-choice Indian batters in T20 cricket. He is known to make big score and will love batting on the flat pitch at Ahmedabad.

GT vs MI Team Expert Advice

Picking the right batters is going to be key but we also think it is worth the risk to pick some lesser-owned names. Wrist-spinners can be excellent wicket-takers and so including them in the lineup is an easy choice to make. The surface is also very easy for foreign batters to adapt to and take advantage of.
