The Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) has reached its crucial stage, with only two matches remaining in the tournament. After a dominant victory over the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the Eliminator, the Mumbai Indians (MI) are set to face the defending champions, the Gujarat Titans (GT), in Qualifier 2. The match is scheduled to take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Friday, May 27th, at 7:30 PM IST.
During the league stage, the Gujarat Titans performed exceptionally well, securing the top spot in the table with 10 wins out of 14 matches. However, their form faltered in Qualifier 1 against CSK, as they lost the match by 15 runs. Now, they have another opportunity to qualify for the final as they go up against the most successful team in IPL history, the Mumbai Indians, led by Hardik Pandya.
On the other hand, the Mumbai Indians had a shaky start in the league stages, suffering initial defeats. But they managed to peak at the right time, and thanks to the Gujarat Titans' victory over the Royal Challengers Bangalore, they secured a place in the playoffs.
