With both teams finishing third and fourth respectively in the league stage, this knockout match will determine who advances to Qualifier two for a shot at the final.
Gujarat Titans have displayed consistent form throughout the season, even getting to the top of the log. Sai Sudharsan has emerged as their top run-scorer. However, recent defeats have raised concerns about their bowling unit's performance.
On the other hand, Mumbai Indians, under Hardik Pandya's leadership, have relied on key Indian players like Suryakumar Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah to secure crucial victories.
With the Eliminator being a do-or-die encounter, both teams will be eager to get the best of their strengths and rectify any inconsistencies to keep their title hopes going.

Jos Buttler of Gujarat Titans will be unavailable due to his national duties elsewhere. Ryan Rickelton, Corbin Bosch and Will Jacks of Mumbai Indians will leave for national duties.
There would have only been five matches on this ground before this Eliminator, meaning there may not be too many demons to worry about. The potential of scattered showers means that the bowlers could be in with a shout early on.
English wicketkeeper-batter Jonny Bairstow has fond memories of the IPL, despite potentially playing his first game of the season in the play-offs. The right-handed opening wicketkeeper-batter hit his second-highest IPL score of 108 not out in 2024.
Sai Sudharsan will not need to look too far back to find a milestone. He hit an unbeaten century only three innings ago. Shubman Gill hit 43 runs against his opposition in this match in early May. Suryakumar Yadav has been the best Mumbai batter by a landslide. The dynamic top-order batter averages over 70 while striking at almost 170 this season.
Sri Lankan Charith Asalanka has never featured in the IPL, but hit 151 runs in his previous innings across all formats. Mitchell Santner, true to form, is an economical wicket-taking bowler. He did just that with two wickets against Punjab Kings.
Sai Kishore feels like a quiet assassin when he goes about his work neatly and calmly while constantly applying pressure. The left-arm spinner’s best bowling figures this season are three for 30. Prasidh Krishna has been a standout across the league, not just the colours of Gujarat Titans. 2025 has been his best IPL season with over a quarter of his IPL career wickets in this season alone. Jasprit Bumrah can’t stop performing at his best this season.
The terrorizing fast bowler was economical while taking a wicket against Punjab. He also took two wickets in his side’s las meeting with Gujarat. Trent Boult is the perfect foil for Bumrah. He was another to take two wickets against Gujarat Titans previously.
With an IPL career that features 4234 IPL runs, it may be difficult to look past Suryakumar Yadav putting on a sky-high performance. A list of two IPL centuries and 29 IPL half-centuries is almost unheard of in the league.
Fast bowler Prasidh Krishna would be a healthy choice for vice-captaincy. If he rips through batting lineups as he has done, he could bring many Dream11 fantasy points with him. His overall T20 career has more than 100 wickets.
A number of Mumbai Indians have become legends at the franchise for their consistent performances over multiple seasons. Some of their new recruits have put their names in lights too.
The seam bowlers could be strong choices on a surface which may be slightly impacted by scattered showers. The pair of Trent Boult and Jasprit Bumrah are a dynamic duo in any conditions though. The batters who can adjust to all conditions quicker should be straight picks in your side. This surface has seen some low double-digit scores and scores over 200 all in the same season.
Sai Sudharsan brings 1349 Dream11 fantasy points to the party. Suryakumar Yadav with 1310 points and Shubman Gill with 1285 points are the only other two within touching distance of Sudharsan
Sai Sudharsan leads the way here with 679 runs. Shubman Gill with 649 runs and Suryakumar Yadav with 640 runs follow him
Prasidh Krishna has a fair lead with 23 wickets this season. Even Trent Boult with 19 wickets is still impressive
Mr 360 Suryakumar Yadav has hit a mesmerizing 32 sixes in only 14 games. Shubman Gill with 24 sixes is behind him.
Naman Dhir at 180.70 has the highest strike rate. Shahrukh Khan with 178.49 is not far off
Naman Dhir’s economy is four, but only from one innings. Jasprit Bumrah’s economy of 6.33 after ten bowling innings is arguably more impressive
